5 Tips to Shop For Her on Valentine's Day

The most important thing to remember when giving a Valentine’s Day gift is to show her that you put some effort into the gift.  Flowers are nice, but every woman knows it only takes a phone call plus they are gone in a week.  Women like chocolates, but all of us know we shouldn’t eat more than one every day or two, so how much fun is that?  A gift of jewelry, on the other hand, shows you cared enough to spend some time, make a little effort and choose a gift that will last a lifetime….one that will serve as a wardrobe accessory forever.  

So that’s Tip #1 – Buy jewelry.

Tip #2 is to buy earrings.  Why?  Ninety-eight percent of all women wear earrings and they can all use additional ones.

Tip #3 – Buy hoop earrings – everyone loves hoops and most women own some so it’s proof that it’s a good bet for style.

Tip #4 - Choose the size of hoop (small, medium, large) that is most like the style she currently wears.  That way she’s bound to think you notice things about her and you have good taste.  If you haven’t noticed what size she wears, then choose under an inch for a very conservative look, about an inch for a traditional women who is often fashion forward, and over an inch if you consider her hip, trendy, or fashion forward.  

Tip #5 – Wrap them and present them with romance.  This is the part that’s most important.  Say something sweet and romantic and nice when you present them….how much she means to you, how glad you are that she’s the woman in your life, your life partner, your soulmate, your best friend.  Say it something like this…”I’m giving you these heart hoop earrings so you’ll know I always carry you in my heart because you are the love of my life forever,” or if they are diamond-cut hoop earrings, something like, “These diamond-cut hoops sparkle with the same brilliance and vitality that you bring to my life!”  Trust me, she’ll remember that exact sentiment far longer than a fresh flower lasts!  And since every piece of jewelry tells a story, your sentiments are the story she will pass on to friends and family as she cherishes the gift you chose for her.  (PS If you choose hoops from LooptyHoops, they come in a nice gift box, nothing more for you to wrap – but we leave it up to you to be the one to present them with your own form of romance!)
