Do Your Little Turn on the Catwalk! Modern September Birthday Gifts
Your friends and family don’t actually have to SAY ‘Ugh, that skirt is SOOooo last winter’, for you to know that they are true children of the modern way! There will be other hints and tips … the fashion magazines scattered around the house, the sleek, pristine, appearance, and the way they make a work uniform look like an Yves Saint Laurent creation! If you’re buying for one of these children of Paris this September, check out some of the latest and most contemporary pieces for both guys and girls born this September.
All of our products for this post can be found in the ‘New Products’ box on the home page – check right down the bottom to see what we’ve added recently. The Rochet black ceramic cufflinks at the beginning of the article are not only new to the world of jewelry, the mix of materials and use of new school bases makes them a new style of design, also. There aren’t many other pieces of jewelry that make you look like you’re at the pub and at work, at the same time! The backing is tough stainless steel, and the front is tough black ceramic. The cufflinks are actually quite inconspicuous though, at only 2cm long.
The Citizen watch at right also expresses that same strange yet inspiring contrast that the cufflinks do, with a blend of classicism and contemporary styling. The part analog, part digital face makes the mix pretty obvious (!), but the blending of different styles, a hallmark of modern style jewelry, is also more subtle than that. The watch has quite a sleek look overall, but that hides some of Citizen’s most advanced technology. The watch has all that buzzes and beeps – everything except for Citizen’s patented Eco-Drive technology. It has an alarm, an hour chime, a light, a split timer, a push button buckle, and is water resistant to 50m … all with a lovely mature look, and an awesome price tag!
The Eco-Drive black and silver tone watch at right, though, is a true marvel of modern watchmaking. It is certainly unafraid of asymmetry, but manages to have an amazing balance in the design nevertheless. This is actually a diving watch, water resistant to 2oom, and has the Eco-Drive technology that lets your loved one forget about changing batteries for his watch … ever again! It has a dual timer and a safety buckle, as well as a tachymeter. The striped black and silver design is what will really push a modern man’s buttons … like a metal tiger!
Jewelry for men is quite a modern idea in itself, and this new stainless steel necklace epitomizes that look. The links are an unusual, asymmetrical design, and the overall effect is subtle, but very hot! The necklace itself is 50cm long, and will sit nicely around most men’s necks, neither too high nor too low. The darker brushed stainless steel makes this piece a little more inconspicuous, and if he wants he could easily get away with wearing it to work as well as going out of an evening. There are no extra chains to buy, as with pendants, and shipping is free anywhere in the world – so what you see on the price tag is what you get!
But as you’d be well aware, a love of all that is new and modern certainly isn’t just a male thing! Just the opposite, usually
. When you’re looking for something new, contemporary and exciting for a birthday gift, why not go straight to the trendsetters, rather than trying to find a follower? Fossil’s designers have been setting trends for decades now, and their gold tone geometric style watch at right is certainly one of their more interesting, chic designs. Half classic, half abstract, the gold tone watch is basic in function, but inspirational in design. It is water resistant and has a tough stainless steel band, so she won’t need to be too precious with it. It also comes with a 2 year manufacturer’s warranty and free shipping, as a little present for the gift-giver!
Hot Diamonds jewelry all has a very niche look, the cool atmosphere of silver and diamonds, and are constantly updating their range – they’re a great place to look for modern jewelry gifts. The stylish earrings at right are one of their new products, with their shining, shimmering design. The base is sterling silver, but it has been rhodium plated for enhanced luster and to prevent tarnishing. They feature a pair of brilliant-cut diamonds, in the centers of the swirls, and are made for pierced ears.
If your fine filly in born in the latter half of September (on or after the 21st), she is a Libra, and her signature color is pink. The daring pink tourmaline ring at right is especially for her – Librans love the finer things in life, and will enjoy the decadent gemstone weight of 2.32ct in the ring, as well as its ‘look at me!’ personality! There are 16 tourmalines in total, offset by nine tiny white diamonds. It is definitely a luxury item, but one that Librans will find a favorite for years to come.
The pink topaz and amethyst heart white gold necklace at right is also a Libran choice, including her signature color and embodying the same grace and sweetness that she does! Being sociable creatures, your Libran lady will never be short of a place to wear this pendant out to, either. It is actually quite dainty, at 2.3 cm long, and the 9ct white gold base is made without nickel, so is suitable for all skin types.
It is not only the new products in store that make great gifts for modern men and misses, though – there are plenty of products throughout the entire range that have an innate contemporary sleekness and chicness!
