Default Girlfriend's Bday present, advice on what "matches" and what doesn't.
Okay so I have dated this girl for 5 months now, I have totally fallen for her. Its her 17th birthday, and I want to make it special for her.

She really loves Tiffany, so naturally this is where I decided to look. She already has "Return to Tiffany" pieces, the ring and the bracelet.

So here's my dilemma: I think this set is great, but I wanted to get her something a little more unique from Tiffany, but I'm afraid that if I step inside the 1837, Nature, or Palamo Picasso collection I might be getting something that just doesn't quite go with the Return to Tiffany set.

So, I personally really like the Palamo Picasso Loving Heart Ring (favorite), Tiffany Nature Rose Ring, and the 1837 Notes Square Pendant. For those of you who have seen these pieces, will they look okay together with the Return to Tiffany Collection? I'm only choosing one of these three, your thoughts are greatly appreciated!

I know this sounds stupid, especially since I know I should be perfectly capable of choosing myself, but I just really don't want to screw this up. I've got a good sense of style, but I'm just not a jewelry guy...help!

Thanks

Just a thought...since she already has RTT pieces, why don't you start her on a new Tiffany collection. I think all tiffany pieces match since they're all silver metal. I like the open loving heart ring and it's a heart and it'll be from you so it'll be extra special.

I think you can wear any of it together, it's more fun to mix it up then have it all match anyway! I would just buy her the one you like best, or the one you think she will like best.

I have the loving heart ring and love it. My boyfriend gave it to me like 5 years ago when I was still very much in love with my return to tiffany necklace and bracelet and I wore it all the time with those pieces. I still wear it a lot- its a perfect, pretty, timeless ring. And I think it would be good for you to step outside of the "return to tiffany" theme b/c too much of that gets to be too much. Good luck!

I totally agree (ITA) I think you should start her on another Tiffany collection.

SO, I went to Tiffany's yesterday, and even though I had my heart set on the Note's square pendant, I still had a look around. I eventually came to the pendant, and after a closer look, realized it was much smaller then online :O And after a close inspection to the Notes heart pendant, I knew it was perfect :)

So I'll be giving it to her Friday, and I am so excited! I'll let everyone know how things go.

how thoughtful of you! I'm sure she'll love it anyway, as long as it's from you.
I can't wait to hear about her reaction!
