With Christmas approaching fast, we thought it would be useful to put together a guide to finding the perfect jewelry gift.
Picking the right jewelry can be overwhelming. There are so many types of finishes, styles and materials to choose from ! As far as playing it safe goes, picking something subtle is always a winner, but you can also inspire your choice by thinking about what other jewelry she wears or her style of clothing.
To make the choice easier, herewith some guidelines :
1 // Look in her jewelry box
Take a look at what she already owns. Short necklaces or long ones ? Subtle designs or bold statement pieces ? Long earrings or short ones ? Does she wear a lot of black clothing ? Then she might like the black OLA jewelry, printed from nylon powder. Especially the rings in black are a hit !
2 // Know her preferred metal finish
What does she like – gold or silver ? If she owns a lot of one particular metal color, odds are, it’s a pretty good metal to buy. That way she can wear them all together and they’ll look good.
3 // Buy matching items
Got some extra budget ? Buy her a set of earrings with a matching necklace or ring. All OLA pieces are timeless in design and pieces of different collections can be easily combined.
4 // Know her ring size
Ring sizes will vary from finger to finger and hand to hand. And the type of ring you buy can change the way it feels. A wide ring will have to be a larger size than a smaller ring, because it takes up more room on the finger. You can measure one of her current rings that fits the intended finger. Put the ring on a piece of paper and pencil the circle inside of the ring, measuring the inside diameter. Each ring in the webshop has a size guide where you can see the measurements per size. This will help pick the best size. If in doubt, pick size Medium (54) which is the most standard size in Europe.
5 // Ask advice
Finally. Don’t be afraid to ask for help when selecting jewelry for her. Her friends can probably give you some great suggestions.
OLA has many collections and each collection has some bestsellers that will give you the highest rate for success ! Here you can see OLA’s bestselling pieces. All designs are available in either gold- or silver plated steel and colored nylon (black/blue/olive). Prices between the two materials are different. So there is always something for every budget !
