Holiday Gifts For Her

Fine jewelry is beautiful, but every woman should also have some fun costume pieces in her collection. Costume jewelry can be perfect for stocking stuffers, secret Santa gifts or whenever you want to buy someone (even yourself!) just a little something.

When shopping for holiday gifts, consider fun costume jewelry pieces that are adorable and affordable. Turn to stores like T.J.Maxx and Marshalls where you can find cute jewelry at discount prices. Here are some of our favorite costume jewelry pieces of the season.

Chunky necklace

Chunky, colorful jewelry is in — especially in the form of necklaces. Look for necklaces created from faux turquoise and coral, as well as multi-colored glass beads. If you think the recipient would like something a little more subdued in color, consider a black glass bib necklace or a piece comprised of wooden beads.

Chandelier earrings

Add a little glitz to any outfit with a pair of crystal chandelier earrings. You can find these glamorous earrings in various sizes, from dainty and sophisticated to bold and beautiful. White crystals will go with just about anything, but steer toward red, purple and green stones too.

Colorful watches

Colorful watch

Watches in fun colors are all the rage right now, and they make terrific holiday gifts. Citrus shades are a big hit — lime green, lemon yellow and bright tangerine. Also, consider shades of aqua blue and bold purple. Another trendy look is a white watch with a contrasting face in a bright color — like fuchsia or turquoise.

Cameo ring

Cocktail ring

To add glitz without a lot of jewelry, turn to a cocktail ring. Look for chunky rings with large stones. Simulated rubies and emeralds are inexpensive but look like a million bucks. Also, check out vintage-inspired cocktail rings in floral motifs or with cameo accents.

Bangles

Stack of bangles

A stack of bangles can put the perfect finishing touch on any outfit. A trio of bright enamel bracelets is casual and chic. However, you should also consider a stack of thin bracelets in rose gold and mixed metals.

Hair clips

Jeweled hair clips

When you are looking for jewelry and accessories, don't forget the hair! Glitzy hair accessories can also add a little glam and shine to a look. Jeweled hair clips and combs, as well as chain headbands, make terrific little gifts.
