So you want to buy her jewelry this holiday, but every necklace youve ever given her has ended up re-wrapped and passed along to her grandma? Not to worry â “ the following are 3 easy tips to finding her an accessory she wont ever re-wrapâ ¦even if Grandma begs her to.

1. Stick With What Works
When it comes to jewelry, girls are creatures of habit. The variety they apply to their wrists, necks and earlobes rarely goes beyond a double- versus single- chain earring, or a round gemstone versus a square one. This makes your task (should you choose to accept it) quite easy. All you have to do is open your eyes. If she wont leave the house without her favorite pair of gold hoop earrings, get her another pair of gold hoop earrings that have a slightly different look â “ hammered to provide some texture, or only a partial circle. If she frequently wears bold gemstone necklaces or bracelets, keep in mind that chunky and bold, not thin and delicate, is her style.
Along that same vein, unless she has specifically mentioned that she wants to shake things up in the gold versus sterling silver category, it is safe to assume that what she wears is what she prefers. She will probably not want to wear the new gold necklace you have given her if she has no other jewelry to match it.

2. Pick Colors Methodically
Ever overheard someone say to your girl, that color really brings out your eyes? Well, were sure she has, and we doubt shell ever forget it. There are a couple of rules to finding a color that complements eye color, hair color and skin tone. The first is that when two colors are near each other, opposites enhance, but similar tones clash. This means that if your girl has beautiful red locks, a big green necklace will make both colors much more striking, whereas a yellow or red necklace would probably dull both down to a plain, brownish mess.
