Her squeals, hugs and kisses all definitely make it worthwhile putting in the effort to find something new and different – that she had no idea was coming.

Jewelry is an excellent gift, one guaranteed to be loved. Here we look at our top gift picks for April born girls who happen to be your friend .

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 – 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 … 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’ll mind if you declare your love for her in just one more way?! I doubt it .

Inori is such a versatile range – they mostly produce men’s jewelry, but have created some gorgeous strong, solid and earthy colored pieces as well that are perfect for Taureans – 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 – don’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 – or you can add a custom-chosen chain to the gift.

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!

The DKNY Diamonte watch at right is the one that Arians will love though – as well as being Aprils AND Aries’ birthstone, diamonds are also the toughest and hardest of all gemstones – 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’s warranty.

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 – 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.

Artistry is about defying expectations, and proudly doing something different – 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!

There are plenty of suggestions here for April born girlfriends – but if that perfect gift for your ‘her’ is missing from the list, you’re sure to find it in the Jewelry Gifts for Girlfriends section.
