Men&#8217;s Mechanical Fossil Watch with DIamond

<p>Men&#8217;s Mechanical Fossil Watch with DIamond</p></div>
<p>There are heaps of great things about buying jewelry as a birthday gift &#8211; its longevity, the fact that it is so personal, and the fact that you can never have too much &#8230; apart from when your loved ones don’t wear jewelry! Watches are a great way to incorporate the traditional benefits of jewelry gifts for people that aren&#8217;t jewelry-wearers, whether they are men or women. We&#8217;ve had some exciting new additions to our watch range this year &#8211; check out our watch gift suggestions below for October-born men and women.<br />

<p>DKNY Crossover Style Two Tone Ladies Watch</p></div>
<p>Traditionally, there are supposed to be two different types of people born in October &#8211; the sociable, graceful, quality-obsessed Librans, who are forever going out, and the intensely private Scorpios, powerfully emotional, driven towards success and mastery of whatever they are interested in, and more than a little mysterious! Scorpio men will adore the blank, swallowing intensity of the black face Fossil watch at the beginning of the article. The diamond in the face is set over a tiny exposed area of the mechanics, creating a clever and stylish blend of class and technicality. The powerful look is more than skin deep &#8211; this watch is actually 100m water resistant, and the band is tough stainless steel.</p>
<p>Libra&#8217;s signature color is pink &#8211; which you won’t find very often incorporated into men&#8217;s jewelry! Wenger make it a modern yet masculine statement, and the durability of the watch shows that its anything but &#8216;girly&#8217; <img src='http://gilletts.com.au/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> . Wenger makes the original Swiss Army knife, and uses that same precision and strength in their watches. This watch features a luminous marker and hands, mineral crystal glass and Swiss quartz movement, and is water resistant to 50m. Wenger backs all of their products with a 3 year manufacturer&#8217;s warranty, also.</p>
<p>Scorpio men are notoriously intense, and the overwhelming reds and blacks of the Citizen Aqualand Promaster diving watch at right will be perfect for him. It is not only the color scheme which suits the Scorpio sensibilities, though. These guys tend to do something to death, when they want to get good at it &#8211; so if you have a diving or water-sports oriented Scorpio, they&#8217;ll need a watch built for the most extreme conditions! The watch has an water sensor an auto-diving mode, is water-resistant to 200m, and comes with the standard 5 Year Promaster warranty. It has the added bonus of incorporating Eco-Drive technology, a patented Citizen solar cell invention that allows the watch to keep working for 5 years, even in the dark.</p>
<p>Libran males won&#8217;t care about what a watch can do, though &#8230; only what it is made of and what it looks like! The classical, clean lines of the gold Citizen watch at right make a quality look easily affordable for Librans. The all-gold look is a shining, elegant one that fineness-driven Librans will adore, The watch is splash resistant and made of durable stainless steel, and despite its classy look, is even approved for use in the mines!</p>
<p>Scorpio women have that same drive towards privacy, the same intensity, passion and mystery that the men do. We love the Citizen Eco-Drive black-face watch at right for Scorpio women, with the contrast of hard, intense diamonds on black enamel. The band is a slim, conservative silver tone stainless steel, and this watch also features Citizen&#8217;s Eco-Drive technology. You can get it in a men&#8217;s version, as well, and also with a gold band if she would prefer. It has a convenient push button buckle, and a Citizen 3 year warranty for peace of mind. Remember to check out the price section on all our Citizen watches (as if you’d forget, I know <img src='http://gilletts.com.au/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' />  ) &#8211; we have a special partnership that allows us to offer some pretty hefty discounts off recommended retail!</p>
<p>The color scheme is opposite to the watch above, but we couldn’t go past the slim, dark, and gorgeously fashionable tones of the DKNY watch at right for Scorpio girls, also. DKNY watches, as with most of our fashion ranges, are extremely affordable, for the designer style they offer. This model keeps it simple, with just two digits on the face, and comes with no extra features &#8230; apart from New York style and quality! There is a 2 year manufacturer&#8217;s warranty on the model, and it ships for free to you, no matter where in the world you are.</p>
<p>Libran ladies love to have high quality items, and will no doubt wear the Citizen Stiletto Eco-Drive watch at right to its death! The design has an inventive radial balance, as well as a side to side symmetry, with the mother of pearl border around the face. There are twelve genuine diamonds set one each quarter of the dial, underneath ultra-tough sapphire crystal glass. It is water-resistant, and features Eco-Drive technology as well as the Citizen 3 year warranty.</p>
<p>Contrasting though it is, the DKNY crossover style watch at right is another great idea for balance-obsessed Librans. The gold and silver arms flow, move and then equal out in the design, and also find a color-based harmony with the mother of pearl dial. The face has the signature DKNY two-digit look. The band is stainless steel, although made with silver and gold tones. There is also a little bonus for you, the gift-gived, in the free shipping <img src='http://gilletts.com.au/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> .</p>
<p>Our watch range is one of the most exciting areas of the shop to browse, with constant new additions, a myriad of different styles and something for every budget. Keep browsing for either <a href="http://gilletts.com.au/index.php?cPath=323_536">men&#8217;s</a> or <a href="http://gilletts.com.au/index.php?cPath=323_537">women&#8217;s watches</a>, and if you need any help searching or choosing, just click the Live Help link to the right of screen.</p>

<p>Fossil Champagne Dial Gold Tone Watch</p></div>
<p>The month of September is home to both Virgos, with their technical minds, obsession with perfection, and cool, reserved nature; and Librans, who constantly strive for balance and grace, won’t have anything less than the best, and can just about always be found spilling their thoughts to whom ever will listen! Just about any watch is a great present for a Virgo &#8211; to work, each has to be precise, exacting, and perfectly made. However, some are more technical than others, and these are Virgo favorites. Citizen is the home of technical excellence, and are true innovators in watch technology. Virgo men will love the Promaster range, with all that beeps, buzzes, measures and calculates. The Yachting timer watch at the beginning of the article is one of the more sleekly designed, and has a blue face (Virgo&#8217;s signature color). It features auto chrono start, a race timer and a split timer. It is 100m water resistant, has a magic light and comes with Citizen&#8217;s generous 5-year manufacturer&#8217;s warranty.</p>
<p>Libran ladies will see perfection as somewhat different, though &#8211; more of a style than a technical achievement. The DKNY Swarovski crystal watch is the ideal Libran gift &#8211; the band is absolutely encrusted with Swarovski crystals on a stainless steel base. Mechanically, the watch is also extremely high quality, with 30m water resistance, and a DKNY 2-year warranty. The watch ships for free all over the world, just as an added extra!</p>
<p>For everyday wear though, Librans will enjoy a little more color in their world. DKNY still has the answer, with the beautiful quality, coral pink and bronze tone ladies watch at right. The coral pink dial features a delicate filigree pattern &#8211; an extra that only adds to he feeling of quality. The bracelet is tough, durable stainless steel, and the glass is hardened mineral crystal &#8230; Libran hand-talkers can be lethal to watches! This watch ships for free also, both within Australian and internationally.</p>
<p>Virgo females as well as males will keep returning to the Citizen range, time and again, as the original trademarkers of technical perfection. The gold tone, black dial watch at right is perfect for Virgo women, with its rich, well-balanced look and tidy appearance. The watch also includes some of Citizen&#8217;s more technical aspects, such as Eco-Drive technology (an incredibly powerful solar cell that can power the watch for up to 5 years once fully charged). It has a date function and is splash resistant, and comes with a 5-year manufacturer warranty. There is also a hefty discount off RRP for this piece &#8211; check it out on the product page!</p>
<p>For Virgo males that are looking to branch out with a little more style, we love the sleek, shining yet subtly layered look of the Fossil large dial watch at right. The silver tone bracelet, dial and hands are cool and calming, like your Virgo guy, and the three sub-dials offer increased function but don’t clutter the face. You can order this watch in a variety of sizes, to suit just about all wrists &#8211; most come at no extra charge over the regular price, also. The silver tone men&#8217;s watch is 50m water resistant, and any mysterious occurrences are covered in the first two years by Fossil&#8217;s manufacturer&#8217;s warranty.</p>
<p>For Virgo men who prefer an everyday look, Wenger is one of the toughest, most precise watch brands around! The makers of the famous Swiss army knife have added their watch range to our store, and this &#8216;City Commando&#8217; watch is made to strict military standards. The piece has luminous marker and hands for easy night time viewing, 100m water resistance (suitable for swimming and snorkeling), and Swiss quartz movement. Free shipping and a 3-year manufacturer warranty complete the deal!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s back to the Citizen range again for Libran males &#8211; the automatic men&#8217;s watch at right has a see-through case back, so you can see the miniature technical perfection that creates such a stylistic achievement! Everything about this design is well-balanced, to appeal to Libran sensibilities &#8211; the face in relation to band, the number sizing on the dial, and even the coloring of the watch is a superbly balanced affair. It is 100m water resistant, and approved for use in the mines. One of the best features, from your point of view, is a huge 25% discount off current recommended retail prices &#8230; hurry over before that changes!</p>
<p>At the opposite end of the spectrum, we love this Fossil gold-tone and champagne dial watch for Libran ladies. There is not much that expresses utter quality and superiority better than gold, and champagne is the color of fun for chatty, sociable Librans! It is a fashion watch, so features splash resistance only, and a simple, well-balanced three hand analogue display. However, both the shipping and the Fossil 2-year warranty are completely free!</p>
<p>Watches are one of the ultimate birthday gifts for both Virgos and Librans &#8211; Virgos are naturally one of the most punctual signs in the zodiac, while Librans have plenty of social appointments to keep track of and be on time for! There are hundreds of <a href="http://gilletts.com.au/index.php?cPath=323_536">watch choices for men</a> and <a href="http://gilletts.com.au/index.php?cPath=323_537">women</a> on site &#8211; keep browsing now. If you have any questions, you can ask and get an instant answer from out Live Help link at the right of screen.</p>

<p>Blue and Sky Topaz Diamond Pendant</p></div>
<p>There are two types of women born in August &#8211; Leos, whose birthday is from the 1st to the 22nd, are colorful, dramatic, bold and sociable sorts of people. Virgos, born from the 23rd onwards, are cooler, calmer and more collected, tending towards being a little reserved and very orderly. For Virgo women, the Citizen watch at the beginning of the article is the perfect choice. It is part of the new Alexa collection, a sophisticated range featuring pastel colors and the sparkle of diamonds. The cool white look will suit you Virgo woman perfectly &#8211; it is made up of stainless steel, mother of pearl, and 28 sparkling white diamonds set around the circumference of the dial. Virgos will also be enthralled with the technical perfection of Citizen&#8217;s work &#8211; amazingly accurate, Citizen Eco-Drive watches like the Alexa collection never need to have their batteries changed. The watch also comes with a 5-year manufacturer warranty, and currently has an incredibly low price tag on it!</p>
<p>Bolder, showier Leo women will find their stylistic home in the DKNY watch collection, where sleek lines are complemented by big, bold accents. This gold tone oversized numerals watch at right is a great example. This watch is actually quite tough for a designer item, with 30m water resistance on it (enough to withstand accidental splashing), and a stainless steel bezel, crown and case. It is a conspicuous 30mm across, and comes with a two year manufacturer&#8217;s warranty.</p>
<p>One of the easiest gifts for women is earrings &#8211; every woman has more than one pair in her collection, and a pair of evening earrings never languishes unused for long! The diamond drop earrings at right are perfect for Virgos, with their neat, sleek look and perfectly clear gemstones. There are 26 diamonds in total in these earrings, with a combined weight of 0.63ct. The diamonds are set on gorgeous quality 18ct white gold &#8211; they are a luxury item (and probably best given as a romantic gift), but a classical piece that will be with her forever.</p>
<p>Leo ladies will find nothing more boring than an earring that is all white &#8230; not even one color in them! They&#8217;ll love the amazing natural fire of the opal earrings at right. This style of earring comes in a huge variety of opal sizes and earring types. This pair is a drop design, with 9mm x 5mm opal boulder doublets inset into 14ct white gold. They measure 1.9cm in length, so while they&#8217;re big on character, they&#8217;re small enough for office as well as everyday wear.</p>
<p>Earrings are actually quite a suitable present for younger girls as well, like daughters and nieces. While small children often don’t have pierced ears, and even older girls don’t tend to change their earrings often, they are a &#8217;safe&#8217; sort of jewelry that is not easily lost like bracelets or pendants can be. The Pandora range has some lovely bright, happy designs, like the pink enamel flowers at right. These come in several different colors &#8211; we chose the pink for Leo littlies. Look for the light blue for Virgo girls. Every color also comes in a drop design also, which may be suitable for older girls, and there is plenty of matching jewelry available!</p>
<p>However, younger girls do love the prominence and sweetness of bracelets. Choose a baby style one, even for slightly older girls, for safety. The Me to You range is specially designed for kids, with the sweet teddy, star and heart motifs throughout. This baby bracelet is made from sterling silver, with an engraved &#8216;Me to You&#8217; on the outside of the bangle, a dangling star with engraved Tatty Teddy and a blue cubic zirconia. A great choice for neat, sweet Virgo girls!</p>
<p>For the more adult (but no less young at heart!) Virgo vixen, the Hot Diamonds range has some cool, sleek pieces. We love the heart design bracelet at right, as both a family and romantic gift for Virgos. The orderliness of the aligned hearts will appeal to these tidy women, as will the clean, shining sterling silver base. The bracelet has eight brilliant cut diamonds in the links, and measures 18cm in total. It has been rhodium plated for enhanced shine and tarnish resistance, also.</p>
<p>The pink pearl necklace at right is truly a piece for all ages &#8211; adult women will love the sweet, feminine look, and children and teenagers will enjoy the layered design and the unique flower crystal in the center of the necklace. The necklace area is 41cm long, so is suitable for average adult necks as well as children, and the drop section is a further 11cm long. The necklace is made of sterling silver and the pearls are freshwater, making for excellent affordability! A lovely pick for colorful Leo ladies.</p>
<p>Cool, calm Virgos have a signature color of blue for their sign &#8211; and being around these deep, collected women you can understand why. The sky blue and deep blue topaz pendant at right is one of our more popular designs, with 4mm x 6mm oval cut gems set on 9ct white gold. It is a dainty 2.5cm long, and is suitable for office and everyday wear as well as evening wear. It is also incredibly well priced for all that gemstone weight &#8211; you can layby it for less than the price of a takeaway lunch and coffee each week!</p>
<p>If there&#8217;s one thing we at Gilletts are familiar with, it&#8217;s what type of jewelry will suit what type of women!

<p>If your wife is born in August, you are either married to a passionate, dramatic, colorful and bold Leo lady, or a more reserved, cool, orderly and conscientious Virgo. The slim, neat and compact Citizen watch at the beginning of the article is perfect for Virgo women, with its neat, slimline design and sparkling clean Swarovski crystals. The mother of pearl dial also has a blue tinge to it &#8211; blue is the signature color for Virgos. The watch features Eco-Drive technology and splash resistance, and comes with a 5 year manufacturer warranty. It&#8217;s not likely that you&#8217;ll need it though &#8211; another aspect that will appeal to your Virgo Mrs. is Citizen&#8217;s impeccable attention to technical detail that makes mechanical issues a rarity.</p>
<p>Leo ladies are certainly not neat and compact, though &#8211; they are big, bold, and command attention! That&#8217;s why we love the DKNY watch at right for Leo women, with its conspicuous gold D design, and the brown leather strap which will appeal to the natural, folksy side of the Leo personality. Even the numbers on the face either go hard or go home (!), with an oversized 12 and 6, and just ticks for 9 and 3. The watch comes with a two year manufacturer&#8217;s warranty.</p>
<p>As different as the two types of August born wives are, the next gift is suitable for either of them. Peridot is the birthstone for August, and these earrings make the clear, fresh stone into a lovely romantic heart shape. They have hook style fittings, but are actually quite dainty, measuring just 1.7cm from top to bottom. The heart cut peridots are 5mm across, and set on 9ct white gold which is suitable for all skin types.</p>
<p>When it comes to earrings specifically for Leo ladies though, big is better, and she&#8217;ll be glad of any excuse to go out to dinner! The onyx cocktail earrings at right are perfect for Leo women, with their dramatic black and silver accents, and outgoing personality. They measure 4.6cm from top to bottom, and each feature five pieces of black onyx along with white and black cubic zirconias for dramatic sparkle. They are quite affordable &#8211; especially when you factor in the free shipping for all Pandora products!</p>
<p>Leos love an excuse for a party, or an excuse to crash one&#8230; and new jewelry is as good a reason as any, for them! The Georgini pendant at right is a lovely match for the Pandora onyx earrings, and despite its size, is very affordable as it is made completely of cubic zirconias. The drop section is a stunning 6cm long, and the necklace it is set on is 45cm long, sitting nice and high around the neck for the &#8217;show-off&#8217; factor! The stones are set on rhodium plated sterling silver.</p>
<p>Virgo women, with their sparkling wit and easygoing personalities, go just as well at parties. However, they prefer to look neater and sleeker &#8211; and Hot Diamonds is there for them, ready to help. Virgos are sometimes referred to as ice queens (although being married to one, you know there is a soul of fire under that cool exterior!), and she will actually like the cool overtones of the Icicle pendant at right. The pendant is 6cm long, made of rhodium plated sterling silver and set with three 0.01ct genuine white diamonds. This pendant has been a popular part of our collection for some time, but only recently started qualifying for free shipping!</p>
<p>Hot Diamonds, despite a singularity in gemstones and base metals, really is a range with broad appeal. Leo ladies will love the creativity and natural, folksy feel of the River Pebble slider necklace at right. The pebbles have three different finishes (although each ahs a sterling silver base) &#8211; one is plated with matte gold, another made of pure polished silver and the final one has a matte textured silver finish. Each is set with a sparkling diamond.</p>
<p>And if you&#8217;re really looking to hit a home run this birthday, why not get her a matching bracelet? Bracelets are especially appropriate for Leo ladies &#8211; there is simply no hiding these bold, showy pieces of jewelry, especially when they are designed like the Back to Nature bracelet at right! Similar to the River Pebbles necklace, this bracelet has polished silver, matte silver and matte gold finishes, in roughly beaten disc designs. It is big, bold and beautiful &#8211; just like your wife! It is 21.5cm long, but you have the option to clip the clasp to make it shorter if she prefers.</p>
<p>Leos like it big and bold, but Virgo girls are detail oriented and delicate. The topaz earrings at right are perfect for her &#8211; they have a gorgeous delicate filigree pattern, and also include Virgo&#8217;s signature color, blue. They are more suitable for evening wear, at 4cm long and with hook style fittings &#8230; but you wouldn&#8217;t find your organized and conscientious Virgo wearing her earrings to bed anyway!</p>
<p>There are literally hundreds of different gifts available for Leos and Virgo wives on site &#8211; you only need a little personal knowledge and a bit of browsing time to find them yourself. Our <a href="http://gilletts.com.au/index.php?cPath=18_434">Gift Ideas for Wives section</a> has handy suggestions, and if you want any further pointers or someone to bounce your ideas off, just click the Live Help link at the right of screen in the shop area. And happy marriage-ing!</p>

<p>Cancerian ladies wear their hearts on their sleeves, as you might know if you’re married to one! These emotionally driven women are unusually strong and determined, as well as having a conservative personality that is at time shy, and at other times drawn to the limelight. However, the diamond hearts necklace at the beginning of the article is the perfect way to indulge her penchant for things romantic. It also includes one heart studded all the way around with white diamonds &#8211; white is the signature color for Cancer. The necklace is also quite reasonably priced, with lay-by options available.</p>
<p>Leo ladies, on the other hand, are dramatic, colorful, passionate, fun-loving and sociable. At times, it can be like living with a ticking time bomb filled with rainbow, chattering, laughing explosive! A vibrant, unmistakable orange is their signature color, and the heart citrine earrings at right capture that vibrancy beautifully. The earrings themselves are extremely affordable, as most citrine jewelry is, despite quite large gemstones. The citrines are 6mm heart cut stones, and are prong set in 9ct white gold (suitable for all skin types). They also feature free shipping across Australia!</p>
<p>While the heart is Leo&#8217;s ruling organ, it is also the most important body part to Cancerian women. Life without romance is an empty life to Cancers &#8211; so we chose &#8216;The Touch&#8217; twin hearts pendant by Hot Diamond for Cancerian ladies. If you have children, no doubt she feels just as strongly about them as she does about you (although in a different way, certainly!), and the pendant is a sweet celebration of motherly love. It measures 3.5cm and features a genuine white 0.02ct diamond. The sterling silver base has been rhodium plated, making it suitable for all skin types and helping preserve shine.</p>
<p>Pendants are also an excellent birthday gift option for Leo wives.  They love hitting the town, so anything that will go with a neat little black dress is a perfect gift! The leaf design pendant at right is bold and dramatic, just like her, and easy to coordinate. The pendant itself is made of stainless steel, with PVD coating for the leaf design. The 46cm black silk cord is included with the pendant, and shipping across Australia is free, so there are absolutely no hidden costs with this one &#8211; what you see is what you get!</p>
<p>We mentioned that Leo&#8217;s signature color is orange, and while the color of amber is not quite so vibrant as citrines, it does have a certain folksy element that Leos love. The necklace is a long, dramatic 59cm in length, and so has a gorgeous heavy 23gm weight. On some women it can even be wrapped round twice to wear as a double choker.</p>
<p>Cancerian wives can never have too many pendants (remember that when you’re thinking next year about how difficult the gift search is!). They&#8217;ll love the Georgini brand filigree cubic zirconia necklace at right. The cubic zirconias allow for full incorporation of their signature color, white, without the enormous expense that this many diamonds would create! The cubic zirconias are set on affordable sterling silver, rhodium plated to help preserve shine and make it suitable for all skin types. The chain measures 45cm, and is included with the pendant.</p>
<p>The &#8216;Kiss&#8217; bangle at right is part of the Hot Diamonds range, who weave love and romance so skillfully into their jewelry pieces! Cancerian ladies will love the silver bangle, a dainty 7cm across (make sure her hand will fit! It can be resized smaller, but not too much larger), and set with ten brilliant cut white diamonds with a combined weight of 0.05ct. The base metal is sterling silver with rhodium plating, and this product also ships for free!</p>
<p>Earrings are often the gift of choice for Leo ladies &#8211; they are always on display, frame the face beautifully, and come in a huge variety of colors and styles. The gemstones in the opal drop earrings at right are full of the same fire that your Leo wife is! They feature solid Australian opals in blue and green shades &#8211; although please note that due to natural variation in the stones, the picture may not match the product exactly. They are a dainty drop, made for both everyday and evening wear, at only 2cm long. The opals are set on lovely quality 14ct white gold.</p>
<p>Cancerian ladies delight in earrings as much as their July birth-mates do &#8211; but you&#8217;ll be looking at smaller, more compact or sleeker styles for them. The Pandora diamond matrix earrings at right are perfect, sitting over the lobe but not fading away into insignificance, at 7.5mm wide. The gold is a nice durable 14ct, and the diamonds are two genuine white diamonds each weighing 0.01ct. There is also plenty of matching jewelry available, pictured below the earrings themselves.</p>
<p>As well as being defined by their emotionality, Cancerian women also have a noticeable contrast within their personality. At times they are shy, but they are strong and determined when required. They are quite conservative, but also drawn to the limelight. The Fossil watch at right expresses that duality beautifully, made of all stainless steel but with a half black, half gold tone. The watch is 50m water resistant, so will withstand the occasional playful water fight, but is not suitable for swimming. It comes with a two year manufacturer&#8217;s warranty also.</p>
<p>While the Cancerian watch does have a certain drama that would appeal to Leos also, we especially love the big, bold styling of the DKNY crystal logo watch at right for the lion-ladies of the zodiac! The lovely wide band is guaranteed to be noticed, and the black crystal logo is both dramatic and easy to coordinate. The unusual design has no numbers on the face. It comes with a two year manufacturer&#8217;s warranty, and ships for free across Australia!</p>
<p>So there you go &#8211; another hard, gut-busting, strenuous relationship task taken care of! But what is life without a challenge?! Keep browsing, especially in our hand-selected <a href="http://gilletts.com.au/index.php?cPath=18_434">gift ideas for wives section</a>, to find just the right birthday gift for your wife this July.</p>

<p>In many ways, relationships are like bank accounts. Each of you invests quite a lot in a relationship &#8211; and the more you invest, the better the dividends are. On the other hand, if you are constantly in debt in a relationship, that debt keeps growing, with interest, until it comes time to cough up! However, birthdays are one of those magical times when a whole year of leaving towels on the floor and forgetting to say &#8216;Thank you; for dinner can magically be wiped off the balance sheet, with a carefully chosen gift! There&#8217;s nothing to be ashamed of in that &#8230; you know it is the same for you also <img src='http://gilletts.com.au/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> . If you’re looking for something to build up a little relationship credit with your girlfriend at her birthday this July (or even just give her something she&#8217;ll love, because you love her!), here are our <a href="http://gilletts.com.au/index.php?cPath=18_435">top picks</a>!<br />

<p>To Cancerian girls, love is forever and ever and ever. Bet she didn’t tell you that when you met her! False advertising <img src='http://gilletts.com.au/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> . No matter what the future holds for the two of you though, you can create a beautiful present with the diamond circles pendant at the beginning of the article. It is made of 18ct white gold, and the center circle is encrusted with 14 genuine white diamonds. The most durable of all stones is a wonderful expression of how Cancerian girls tend to feel about their partners. It is also quite affordable, considering the luxury and quality!</p>
<p>You can pair the diamond pendant up with something equally shining and subtle, like the diamonte DKNY &#8216;D&#8217; watch pictured at right. The band is made of silver tone stainless steel, and the dial is encrusted with diamontes, in a lovely parallel with the pendant. The watch, however, can withstand a lot rougher treatment &#8211; it is all stainless steel, comes with a two year warranty and features free shipping!</p>
<p>Leo women are a lot more sociable than Cancerian girls, as well as more colorful, more dramatic, bigger, brighter and bolder! Look for jewelry that reflects that, like the gorgeous pink tourmaline ring at right. Leos love color in their jewelry, and tourmalines are a great way to incorporate pink without having the color fade into the background. The ring has 12 round cut tourmalines and six white diamonds, set on a 9ct white gold band. The back of the ring is a comfortable 5mm wide, although the front is much wider! It looks like an enormously expensive ring, but is actually well within budget for most.</p>
<p>Cancerian girls can be just as strong and determined as Leo ladies, but are much more conservative in their dress sense. The natural titanium ring pictured at right is perfect for Cancer girls. Titanium is the most durable metal in common use in jewelry making, so the ring will last forever &#8211; just like your bond will, if your Cancer girl has anything to do with it! The ring is a nice, middling 5mm wide, and you can have a message engraved inside the band for free.</p>
<p>One of the things that is probably most evident about your Cancerian girlfriend is that she is quite indecisive! Cancerians often change their mind partway into a project &#8211; you can actually indulge that little quirk and make it easier for her to change her mind with a birthday gift like the Pandora Mix n Match earring hooks and attachments at right! The hooks shown are small sized sterling silver ones with a heart design as a stopper. The attachments, shown below, are stunning white pearls of around 1cm in diameter. The freshwater cultured pearls are a shimmering white color &#8211; also Cancer&#8217;s signature color.  There are dozens of other mix n match designs in the Pandora earring section, so why stop at one? She needs to have something to change her mind to <img src='http://gilletts.com.au/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> .</p>
<p>The Pandora range is truly diverse, and you&#8217;ll find just as many treasures that are perfect for Leo ladies in here as you will for Cancerian girls. The orange enamel flower necklace at right features Leo&#8217;s signature color for the sign, and above all, is bright, happy and colorful. The sterling silver base, and the inexpensive enamel adornment, make this a very affordable birthday gift! The necklace itself also has an adjustable chain, which can be worn at 40, 42 or 45cm, and ships for free across Australia.</p>
<p>Leo girls love not only color, but variation &#8211; so if you are looking for a complete birthday gift solution, team up your ornage flower necklace with another piece from the matching Pandora enamel range, but in a different color! We&#8217;ve chosen the pink enamel flower hoop earrings to match the necklace, but you could easily match a blue and a green piece, a yellow and orange, or a green and yellow. There are several different styles of rings, earrings, and necklaces as well as a Pandora bracelet charm. You&#8217;ll be able to see all of these additional products when you click through the image, and scroll down to the description.</p>
<p>Leo ladies love to dress up and hit the town &#8211; and the more fully adorned they are, the better! Toe rings are a great way to make her feel extra-special, and the Pandora range is elegant and charming. The lilac cubic zirconia toe ring at right is perfect for Leo ladies, with just a little color and variation. The lilac cubic zirconia is set in 14ct yellow gold, while the toe ring itself is sterling silver. They are budget friendly gifts, and made as a one-size-fits-all piece.</p>
<p>Cancerian women are not quite so showy and out there &#8211; this shyer sign actually prefers jewelry that can be hidden all to herself! The body and soul pendant by Inori represents how she feels about the people she loves &#8211; she&#8217;ll do anything to maintain her bonds, risking both body and soul! The stainless steel pendant is unisex style (so you are really buying yourself a gift, also <img src='http://gilletts.com.au/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' />  ), measuring 3cm long. The chain pictured is not included &#8211; you&#8217;ll want a chain of at least 50cm to allow her to pop it comfortably under her clothes.</p>
<p>However, Cancerian women are notoriously fickle &#8230; perhaps it is better to get her a necklace hat she can change at will, wearing it a hundred different ways for a hundred different days! The Pandora collection allows that changeability. While they are best known for their bracelets, all of the charms look equally good on a necklace. The black leather necklace shown at right is tough enough to handle dozens of charms, and is made in minimal color for matchability. These are also available in pink, red, lime green, and gray.</p>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t had a bright idea that will earn you plenty of relationship-credit yet, don’t stress! There are thousands more gift ideas on site. Check out the Pandora range for Cancerian girls, and look among the <a href="http://gilletts.com.au/index.php?cPath=18_435">Gift Ideas for Girlfriends</a> for anything colorful for Leo ladies!

<p>Modernism is all about the extremes &#8211; while some modern jewelry is extremely sleek and minimalistic, some is wildly extravagant. None of it, however, is boring! Modernism is also about re-inventing the old, which is why you&#8217;ll find unusual jewelry types, like the toe ring pictured at the beginning of the article, under this category. For July born women, this is ideal for Cancerians (whose birthday is between the 1st and 22nd of July). It incorporates the signature color for their zodiac sign, white, and is a plainer, minimalistic style of jewelry to match the conservative, shy Cancerian personality. The toe ring is made of sterling silver along with white cubic zirconias, as a one size fits all piece. It is extremely affordable, and also ships free across Australia!</p>
<p>Jewelry for the feet is a relatively modern idea &#8211; millennia ago, when the concept of jewelry was being born (aww!), feet were for walking around in dense undergrowth, chasing animals so that they could be eaten. Anklets would have been a hindrance! But they certainly aren’t in a modern world. We love the sleekness and simplicity of the hanging flower anklet at right, with its purple cubic zirconia adorning the center of the flower. It is made of affordable sterling silver, and Cancerians (who are notoriously indecisive and fickle!), will love the fact that you have the option to change the charm on the anklet. Regular sized Pandora charms will fit on there as well as they do on bracelets.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, though, you can’t load up the anklets as you can one of the gorgeous ready made bracelets from the Pandora Inspirations range! The flirtatious fun bracelet at right is an ideal pick for modern Leos, who are month-mates of the Cancerians in July. Leo women and men are passionate, fun-loving, sociable and dramatic, and delight in color and creativity. In fact, &#8216;Flirtatious Fun&#8217; pretty much sums up their approach to life in general! With plenty of silver, enamel and budget gemstone beads, this bracelet is one of the more affordable ready made pieces from the Pandora range. It is colorful and lively, and great for either everyday wear or a night on the town. The base bracelet is included with the package, also.</p>
<p>When it comes to creating contemporary classics, Georgini designers seem to have a sixth sense about what will look great under a UV light, next to a cocktail glass or on a smoky dance floor! For Cancerians., we love the black and white cubic zirconia pendant pictured at right. These women are famously indecisive, and their personalities contain many contrasts. So does this necklace, with its elegant black and white, minimalistic look. The cubic zirconias are set on sterling silver, which has been rhodium plated for enduring shine and tarnish resistance. The drop section is a conspicuous 6cm long, and the necklace itself sits high, measuring 45cm long.</p>
<p>Georgini also has plenty for the colorful, contemporary Leo lass! The green cubic zirconia ring at right may have an &#8216;antique-cut&#8217; stone, but that is where the traditionalism ends! Your creative Leo will quickly find something to accent and backdrop the stunning lime green, and will love the bold showiness of the 18mm stone. The band is 4mm wide sterling silver, so is actually quite comfortable. The style has been discontinued, so get in quick! You can have the ring resized locally quite easily.</p>
<p>The DKNY fashion watch at right will round out a Cancerian woman&#8217;s collection nicely &#8211; a piece of contrasts, just like herself, and with a minimalistic modern flavor. The strap is a lovely natural leather, and the simplicity of the technical side allows the stunning design to shine. Shipping on DKNY watches is free across Astraila, and also cancels the shipping charge for anything else you buy at the same time. The watch also come in a red style &#8211; check it for Leo ladies!</p>
<p>We do know that it isn’t only women that like to be up-to-date, with the program, and of-the-moment &#8230; there are just as many modern men out there. Jewelry is an inherently modern gift for guys, as it has traditionally been thought of as a &#8216;girls&#8217; gift (barring wedding rings and the odd pirate earring!). We love the Inori pendant at right for Cancerian guys &#8211; stylish, simple and sleek, but with a touch of creativity and the unusual. The entire Inori range is filled with great choices for Cancer guys &#8211; well worth a look! The pendant is 3.5cm long, and you&#8217;ll need to purchase a separate chain.</p>
<p>Leo lads are the energetic, passionate ones that shout with joy at the soccer and are the first to hoist their team mates onto their shoulders after a good game. One of the most thrilling, dramatic sports there is, is car racing. Rochet has created a jewelry series to celebrate it, from which the &#8216;Pisdton&#8217; pendant at right is taken. The pendant is made in tough stainless steel and black ceramic, and designed to look like a pumping piston. The pendant is actually quite compact, though, at 2.6cm long, making it suitable for everyday wear and a wide variety of situations. The black rubber cable shown is included with it.</p>
<p>For Leo men whose thrills come from watersports, rather than high speed adrenaline, Wenger watches have some excellent options. We love the bright coloring and amazingly modern technical precision of the dive watch at right. It is water resistant to 100m, so is suitable for scuba diving and deep diving. It has luminous markers and hands for nighttime visibility (important for Leos!), as well as a date indicator, screw down crown, and a limited 3 year manufacturer warranty.</p>
<p>Just because jewelry lasts forever, doesn’t mean it can’t be thoroughly modern! For more sleek, chic styles, start with the range of gift ideas for men and women (check under the Gift Ideas category in the main left hand navigation), or have more of a look through the <a href="http://gilletts.com.au/index.php?cPath=323_592">Wenger watches</a>, <a href="http://gilletts.com.au/index.php?cPath=549_583">Pandora Inspirations bracelets</a>, or <a href="http://gilletts.com.au/advanced_search_result_split.php?keywords=georgini&amp;search_in_description=1&amp;x=0&amp;y=0">Georgini jewelry</a>.</p>

<p>248 Gemstone Strawberry Earrings</p></div>
<p>Cancerian women are born from the 1st to the 22nd of July, and tend to be emotional, protective, and a little shy but strong when required! They can also be a little unpredictable and indecisive &#8211; they shift like the ocean&#8217;s tides. The beautiful pearl earrings at the beginning of the article are perfect for Cancer ladies, with gemstones celebrating the ocean that they are so intimately connected to, and also incorporating their signature color, white. There are six pearls on each earring, measuring 6-6.5mm each. They are a flowing, elegant addition to an evening wear wardrobe, and suitable not just as a romantic gift but also for platonic friends or family. They measure 50mm long, and ship for free across Australia!</p>
<p>The pearl drop necklace at right is a lovely match for the earrings as a Cancerian July birthday gift. The necklace chain itself is quite short, at 40cm long, so sits nice and high around the neck. However, the drop section is quite long, and features nine 7-7.5mm freshwater pearls. The necklace is a unique, but not too showy, 5-chain design. Shipping is free and the necklace is included &#8211; no hidden costs!</p>
<p>We mentioned that Cancerian women are emotionally driven &#8211; no cold, hard logic for these loving women! The Tears of Happiness Pendant at right is a lovely alternative it pearls, while still honoring the Cancerian signature color, white. Again, the pendant is most suitable for evening wear &#8211; the drop section measures 5.4cm and the chain (included with the pendant) is 45cm long. The sterling silver has been rhodium plated, to help enhance shine, prevent tarnishing, and make the pendant suitable for all skin types.</p>
<p>The entire Hot Diamonds range is filled with great options for birthday gifts for Cancer girls, and is one of the ranges that makes stylish jewelry birthday gifts for children, as well as grown women. The flower diamond bracelet at right will be with your niece or daughter for the rest of their life, creating happy memories! It features silver flower shapes, each adorned with a brilliant cut white diamond in its center. The bracelet is 17cm long, so will be suitable right into her teenage years. They actually fit many adult women well also. For smaller children, the lobster clasp is easily attached to one of the inner links, so it can be worn securely.</p>
<p>Straying away from silver, but keeping it understated and conservative for Cancerian females, is the ultra-slimline Citizen watch at right. Featuring a mother of pearl dial and an elegant, princessly look that your Cancerian lady will love, the watch is made entirely of stainless steel and incorporates Citizen&#8217;s Eco-Drive technology. It looks classical, but under the bonnet are a raft of technical advancements! Eco-Drive technology uses solar or artificial light power to store enough energy to run the watch in the dark for up to 5 years &#8211; no battery changing required! It is splash resistant, and comes with a 5-year manufacturer&#8217;s warranty.</p>
<p>Pandora is a range that has plenty of options, both for grown and growing Cancerian women! The Love Hope Manifesting Inspirations bracelet is great way to create a ready-made, cohesively designed Pandora bracelet that caters to Cancerians&#8217; emotionality. On top of this, notoriously indecisive Cancerians can chop and change the beads as they like! This bracelet features eight different charms as well as the base bracelet.</p>
<p>Leo is the starsign that takes up the last part of July, from the 23rd onwards. Leo ladies are traditionally very dramatic, colorful, sociable, and bold. They are often very creative, and get along well with kids &#8230; to the point where you are not sure who is mentally younger! They are also natural, folksy souls, which is why we picked the salmon CZ flower anklet from the Pandora range for Leo women. Again, these are suitable for both younger and older women, and the charm can be changed at will from the enormous selection of Pandora beads.</p>
<p>The jewelry category where color is often hardest to find is in the watch section. Silvers, golds, black and mothers-of-pearl dominate &#8230; but none satisfy the rainbow dreams of a Leo lady! Try the DKNY coral pink watch at right &#8211; she&#8217;ll love the dramatic and unusual mixture of pink and bronze, as well as the patterning on the faces of the links and dial. This watch packs a lot of style for an affordable price, and features free shipping as a bonus.</p>
<p>Just as Cancer&#8217;s signature color is white, Leo&#8217;s is a bright, energetic orange. Citrines are a great way to incorporate orange into a Leo jewelry box &#8211; she&#8217;ll love both the color and the big bold style of these citrine on white gold earrings. The stones are 6mm x 8mm pieces, oval cut and set on 9ct white gold for affordability. Another great thing about citrines is that they offer a high gemstone weight at affordable prices &#8211; these are currently less than AU$100!</p>
<p>We have saved the best for last, though &#8211; the gorgeous strawberry earrings at right feature a total of 248 individual gemstones, including the July birthstone, the ruby. Besides rubies, there are green tzavorites, pink sapphires, yellow sapphires and natural white diamonds, all set on 18ct white gold. They are certainly a luxury item, but make for a never-to-be-forgotten birthday gift!</p>
<p>There are literally thousands of items of ladies&#8217; jewelry on site &#8211; there is guaranteed to be something that your female loved one will adore! Check out the rest of our hand-selected <a href="http://gilletts.com.au/index.php?cPath=18_212">gift ideas for women</a>, or keep browsing <a href="http://gilletts.com.au/index.php?cPath=549">the Pandora pages</a> to find gifts for both young and &#8216;just a bit older&#8217;!

Fossil Rose Tone Crystal Watch

<p>Citizen Ladies Silver/Mother of Pearl Watch</p></div>
<p>It is a happy coincidence this year that Mother&#8217;s Day has seen the release of quite a few new watch styles, along with a new clothing and weather season in the Northern Hemisphere. Fossil, DKNY and Michael Kors have all put out new models of watch, and some, like the pink, white and crystal Fossil watch at the beginning of the article, look set to be some of our most popular items. The watch at the beginning of the article has a beautiful crisp femininity. It has a white croco-embossed leather strap and crystals in both the face and crown. It is water resistant to 50m (suitable for accidental splashes), and is a quartz movement watch with a 2 year manufacturers warranty.</p>
<p>For ever after those traumatic years when their children are young (that&#8217;s you and I, miniature terrorists that we were!), Mums always look for clothes and accessories that are a blend of comfort and fashion. That willingness to sacrifice her feet, back and skin for fashion thankfully fades after having kids- but it does make it especially exciting to find something that both looks great and is comfy!</p>
<p><strong>DKNY watches</strong> are a great choice for comfort oriented Mums, with a huge range of watch sizes available for just about every design, from 13cm to 27cm. This crystal logo watch has a wide comfort band, and is versatile enough to wear with just about anything. It also comes with a two year manufacturer&#8217;s warranty.</p>
<p>The new crossover, oversized numeral style of <strong>DKNY </strong>watch has been selling like ice-cream at the beach. There are several colour schemes, with the gold on gold pictured, and it is very much of the moment. Again, these come in a huge range of sizes and with a two year manufacturer&#8217;s warranty, and are water resistant to 30m.</p>
<p><strong>Micheal Kors</strong> loves incorporating natural style materials into his watches, with the tortoiseshell range garnering a dedicated following &#8230; yes, watches have followings now! The new season collection features plenty of leather, which is again good for blending comfort and fashion. This simple, professional, corporate style watch comes with a two year manufacturer&#8217;s warranty, and also features free shipping!</p>
<p>While <strong>Citizen</strong> usually focuses on the shining, sleek all-gold or all-silver designs, this humble caramel leather piece has actually been one of their most loved products &#8211; perhaps because it is so different. This is a great everyday watch for your Mum this Mother&#8217;s Day &#8211; slim, comfortable, easy to match, down to earth &#8230; just like the lady herself! It has Eco-Drive technology, so there is no need to change batteries, and a hard wearing stainless steel case.</p>
<p>But we couldn&#8217;t get through the Citizen range without featuring part of what they do best &#8211; luminescent shine and slick sparkle. The silver watch at right has a classy mother of pearl face and a very attractive price tag! This model watch is made of stainless steel and is water resistant, and comes with a 3 year Citizen manufacturer&#8217;s warranty.</p>
<p>Of course, all of these gifts will be much more appreciated if they come with an actual gift of time also! Cook her dinner and do the dishes and she&#8217;ll love you forever. Aw, who are we kidding &#8230; she&#8217;d do that anyway!

<p>April born girls will fit either into the fiery, bold, passionate mould of Aries, if they are born on or before the 19th, or the dependable, earthy and artistic mould of Taurus, for those born on or after the 20th. The Inori flower pendant at the beginning of the article is picked especially for Arian girls. It makes for a great Arian gift for so many reasons &#8211; the open face style of the flower is reminiscent of the daisy, the flower that symbolizes Aries; it is actually made out of stainless steel, rather than gold and silver, so it is super hard wearing and tough, like she is (!); and it is set with a diamond in the center, the toughest and strongest of all gemstones &#8230; as well as her birthstone! Not to mention the fact that as far as jewelry gifts go, it is available at a bargain price for great quality. There is another, similar pendant shown at right, although heart instead of flower shaped. But do you think she&#8217;ll mind if you declare your love for her in just one more way?! I doubt it <img src='http://gilletts.com.au/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> .</p>
<p>Inori is such a versatile range &#8211; they mostly produce men&#8217;s jewelry, but have created some gorgeous strong, solid and earthy colored pieces as well that are perfect for Taureans &#8211; like the maple leap pendant at right. With its earthy autumn colors, and the sparkle of cubic zirconias like icy dewdrops in the morning, your earthy Taurean girlfriend will love the natural imagery of this pendant. It is actually quite dainty &#8211; don&#8217;t let the large version of the photographs fool you! It measures 2.3cm from tip to tail. As a stand-alone item, if she already has a favorite chain she can just pop this on &#8211; or you can add a custom-chosen chain to the gift.</p>
<p>Inori is not the only brand to stylishly incorporate the strength and durability of stainless steel into jewelry for your girlfriend, though. Watches are another jewelry type where stainless steel of various colors and platings is usually used, for scratch resistance, and DKNY are masters of using it in high fashion items. The gold D, leather strap watch at right is perfect for Taurean girlfriends, with its earthy colors and natural materials. The gold dial is made of matt textured gold, and the simple dual digit face makes for an artistic alternative to the usual. You get the official DKNY box with the watch, free shipping and an excellent price for all that cool factor!</p>
<p>The DKNY Diamonte watch at right is the one that Arians will love though &#8211; as well as being Aprils AND Aries&#8217; birthstone, diamonds are also the toughest and hardest of all gemstones &#8211; and this watch has plenty of them! To some, the design might seem a bit much, but remember that Arians love bold styling, not the sort of stuff that fades into the shadows! The watch is 30m water resistant (splash resistant), and has a two year manufacturer&#8217;s warranty.</p>
<p>Both Taureans and Arians love jewelry that is strong, bold and solid feeling. We chose the Georgini pendant at right for Taurean girlfriends, though because of its unusual and artistic look. It includes a milky pink cubic zirconia, which are quite rarely seen &#8211; usually only clear cubic zirconias are used in jewelry, because they look like the more precious gemstones. This pendant, though, looks individual, unique, artistic and stunning! The milky stone is highlighted by a clear stone above it, and both are set on sterling silver for good affordability. The metal is rhodium plated, to be suitable for all skin types, and the pendant itself measures 1.5cm in length.</p>
<p>Artistry is about defying expectations, and proudly doing something different &#8211; and attracting like minded people through that! The bent heart pendant is made with a true artistic spirit, with its melting, folded look that no other pendant has. It is made out of sterling silver, and has three brilliant cut white diamonds set into the face. It is a neat and dainty 2cm long, and the chain that comes with the pendant is 45cm in length. It is part of the Hot Diamonds collection, which has lately done some very individual things with sterling silver and diamonds! There are matching earrings for this necklace shown below it, also featuring two brilliant cut genuine white diamonds, and that signature run-over-by-a-train look that chicks dig nowadays!</p>
<p>There are plenty of suggestions here for April born girlfriends &#8211; but if that perfect gift for your &#8216;her&#8217; is missing from the list, you&#8217;re sure to find it in the <a href="http://gilletts.com.au/index.php?cPath=18_435">Jewelry Gifts for Girlfriend</a>s section.
