1. Earrings
If your ears are pierced, you probably always wear a pair of earrings and change them according to your destinations. The great thing about birthstone earrings is that they come in all shapes and sizes, from the classic small studs, to fish hooks and latch backs and to chandelier or drop earrings. You will certainly find any of these styles with your birthstone, so consider buying a pair to celebrate your month all year.
2. Charm Bracelet
Charm bracelets are delightful accessories for individuals of all ages, no matter if they are destined for an infant, toddler, child, teen, adult or senior. They have a light, playful and positive energy surrounding them, and a charm bracelet with your birthstone will brighten up your day any day. You can choose from silver or gold varieties with all sorts of cute charms that dangle from it.
3. Ring
If you like it, then you’d better put a ring on it, gentlemen! All jokes aside, a birthstone ring is the perfect gift for a husband to offer to his wife. On the other hand, it also serves as a great accessory you can treat yourself to as a reward for the hard work you underwent in the last period. You can choose either a small gem or a larger one on your ring, depending on your preferences.
4. Pendant
There are so many kinds of pretty pendants with birthstones out there that it can be challenging to make up your mind. No matter if you go for a long, rectangular pendant studded with your birthstone, or you opt for a simple, yet elegant, round stone on your necklace, a birthstone pendant will make you smile every day.
5. Ankle Bracelet
If you liked our charm bracelet idea, you should consider an ankle bracelet as well. It is basically like a bracelet, with the exception that it is destined to be worn around your ankle. You can pick a thin gold or silver chain detailed with one or more studs with your birthstone and admire it dancing around your ankle as you walk.
