Give Mom the Gold
5 05 2006Dear Leslie,
Mother’s Day is coming up and I am not sure what to get my wife. We have three children and she’s a terrific mother. I’d like to get her something special that she’ll really be able to use a lot so she’ll remember how much I appreciate her. Do you have any suggestions?

If your wife is a star in the Mom Olympics, you should give her the top prize. Give her the gold! Of course, you need to look at the kind of jewelry your wife typically wears. Notice if she wears more yellow gold or white gold (or silver). That will be your first clue in selecting the right gift. Then think about your wife’s style. Is she more flamboyant or subtle? Consider these two questions as you look at these great examples of yellow gold necklaces that would be perfect for Mother’s Day. I’ll share about white gold in an upcoming post.
This classy and elegant 14K yellow gold triple row Venetian style necklace is a great way to show mom how much you care. The rows of gold create a subtle mesh effect that is perfect with a t-shirt or suit. Plus the lobster clasp with keep it securely fastened while mom is doing all of those things that keeps her (and the family) running!
A great choice for mom to wear everyday is this sleek and gorgeous 14K yellow gold round spring omega necklace. This classic chain really is a must have for every wardrobe. At just $135, it’s great for a budget!
For a mother with sense of style that is more bold, this 14K yellow gold rolo necklace is a good pick. There is so much gold in this necklace. It has a rich and luxurious look. The smooth, round links add a softness to this necklace that is feminine and refined.

So, guys, check out the kind of jewelry your wife normally wears and let that be your guide. If you’re still confused, you can always call your mother-in-law! [...]
