  Buying birthday presents for women can be quite easy if you consider the things that make her unique before you start shopping. Start by gathering information about her favorite colors, her clothing sizes and styles, jewelry preferences, favorite scents, places to eat, hobbies and favorite activities. Keep in mind that many women prefer to know how much you care versus how much you spend. Taking the time to find the item that suites her perfectly lets her know you think she is special.

  When you give a woman jewelry for her birthday, you are saying that you think she will look lovely wearing it. Make sure however, that you know the type jewelry she wears before you buy it. Perhaps she prefers gold versus silver when it comes to the jewelry. You can give a nice set of earrings or a necklace that she can wear when going out to celebrate her birthday. An elegant watch can be a reminder each time she looks at it through the day of how much you care. Brooches are very much in style and many women love to wear them on lapels, hats, scarves and even totes.

  For many women, spending time with those they love is a very special birthday gift. If you can give her a day or several hours of doing fun and adventurous things with you, then she will probably be thrilled. You can pack a picnic lunch and whisk her away to a beautiful park or her favorite place in nature. Consider taking her out for a day of shopping or doing the one thing that you never do with her. Perhaps she enjoys garage sales. Making her a birthday breakfast before whisking her away to a fun day at the garage sales might be the perfect gift.
