Perfect Pandora Presents for July Birthdays
Pandora is one of those ranges that truly has something for everyone. Actually, it has something for 50% or so of people, sorry! If you’re looking for a female birthday gift this July, Pandora will definitely have something for you. The sweetness, elegance and quirkiness of Pandora jewelry tends to look odd on most men, though! Pandora has added several new categories in the early part of 2009. We’ll be looking at the ideal Pandora gifts this July, whether you’re buying for an empathetic, moody yet sweetly protective Cancer girl, or a sociable, enthusiastic and lovable Leo.
Leo girls are dramatic and passionate – they don’t do things by halves! The Colors Spectacular Inspirations bracelet is a great guide to how your Leo lady will love her Pandora bracelet to look, even if you don’t purchase the charms all at once. This bracelet features 14 different Murano glass beads, all in bold primary colors as well as black and white. Leos are sociable girls, and this bracelet is perfect for a fun night away from the confines of her four home walls. Bracelets come in 1cm increments from 16cm to 23cm, at no extra charge, and all Pandora products shipped in Australia have no shipping charge attached.
Alternatively, why not make up your own color scheme (or her own one!) from the Murano glass category. They are plenty of beads that are just as bold, but have slightly different hue values. The burnt orange one at right is a great example – use it to offset coffee and cream beads, and pinky-red beads.
The pink and black flowers inspirations bead captures the duality of Cancer chicks perfectly. These women often have a touch of shyness to their personality, and can be quite emotionally led – hence the soft pastel pink. However, when aroused, they are strong, determined and protective! The black beads capture that determination well, and your Cancer girl will feel that the bracelet truly represents her. Have a look through the Murano glass section, though, as there are several designs in similar colors. Substitutions are allowed in the Pandora Inspirations section, or you can simply build the bracelet from scratch yourself – the cost is the same. The grey and black flowers bead at right is a great example of the dramatic pieces within the Murano glass category.
Leos love to live it up – sounds like a motto, doesn’t it?! Actually, you won’t find many Leos that deny this is the case. The Mix n Match range of Pandora earrings was only recently released, and Leos everywhere squealed in delight, as they were finally able to change their going-out earrings at whim, without the cost of buying a whole new pair! We love the big, bold style of the citrine earrings at right for Leo women.
As with all of their categories, Pandora Mix n Match earrings are completely divided in their styles. There are just as many options for Cancers as Leos here – including the pink sapphire gold earring attachments shown at right. The sweet pink of the sapphires signifies affection and friendship, two things Cancers do well. These ladies will also love the long-lasting, durable stones – they often expect bonds to last forever, and the one with their earrings certainly will! The pink sapphires are set on 14ct yellow gold.
We may have mentioned (and you may have noticed) that Leos like getting out and about – so can never have a shortage of costume and evening wear jewelry. This dramatic, bold filigree silver and diamond necklace by Pandora is perfect for Leos, set on a 45cm chain to sit nice and high around the neck, and with its unmistakable circular styling. It includes three brilliant cut genuine white diamonds in the circular areas, as well as a dangle pearl. The diamonds have a total weight of 0.05ct, and are surrounded immediately by 14ct yellow gold. There is a great selection of matching jewelry, if your Leo lady wears this one out with love!
The 25th anniversary edition jewelry also suits the regal, dramatic air that Leos love to portray. Grand, elegant and sparkling, it may not be exceptionally colorful but it definitely makes a statement! The necklace shown is made in 14ct gold in Pandora’s signature bubble design, and is set with a huge .25ct of natural white diamonds. There are matching earrings, a ring and a Pandora bracelet charm – but check availability, these discontinued pieces may not be available for much longer!
Cancer women are sweet, incredibly protective, and forms bonds as strong as their personalities. A great way to help them express that emotionality, sometimes a difficult part of their personality but always rewarding, is with the infinity scrolls cubic zirconia necklace at right. Cancers will happily love forever, if you give them the chance … they’ll certainly love this necklace forever, at any rate! This piece is actually very affordable, with cubic zirconias rather than diamonds and sterling silver as a base. The oxidized edges give the necklace a traditional, aged look which Cancers will love. The piece is part of the infinity scroll with clear CZ set, including drop earrings, a ring and a Pandora bracelet charm.
We did mention that Cancers have an very strange duality to their personalities – tinged with shyness, but still drawn to the limelight. Often these women see themselves just as their loved ones do – as a sort of reluctant princess, sweet and regal! So we couldn’t go past this ‘crowned’ silver and gold toe ring for Cancer women. Toe rings are fast becoming a staple in women’s fashion, especially for summer wear. This one is made of sterling silver and 14ct yellow gold for the crown, and its simple design without attachments makes it easier to wear then most.
Another feature of the Cancer starsign that you are probably frustratingly familiar with is their tendency to change their mind halfway through a project. Well, Pandora actually caters to those whims and makes them easier to indulge. So hopefully she can be a bit more decisive in other areas! The Pandora anklet shown allows your Cancer chicky to change her bead at will – we chose the silver for greater variety and coordination prospects. Check through the silver beads section in the normal bracelet charms, and you’ll find plenty of budget friendly ideas.
Leos will also love anklets – but more for the fact that they help leave no inch of their bodies undecorated! These dramatic ladies also have a folksy, natural way about them, which is why we chose the creative mixture of natural leather and 14ct yellow gold, in the anklet pictured at right. He simple daisy-shaped gold flower is a common theme in Pandora jewelry, so if you have a coordination-crazy Leo on your hands, there are plenty of prospects for matching jewelry.
There are literally hundreds of ideas for Cancer and Leo birthdays in the Pandora pages, with pieces that indulge indecisiveness especially in the Mix n Match earrings, traditional bracelet and anklet sections. Keep browsing for the perfect gift now – and keep in mind that shipping is completely free (and cancels the charge on anything else you order with them!), for Australian customers.
