Hey guys and girls, girls more than guys ;)

Fee, my lass, is 21 on the 9th of May and I want to get her a piece of Jewelry for her birthday. I thought about a ring, something she can wear all the time and maybe a message on the inside of the ring however I am open to ideas.

She doesn't really like gold, so silver or white gold is best.

Also, just so you know, she likes unique/different. She is into rock music leaning more towards punk and though she doesn't like to admit it, emotional rock so if you know of anything that would suit her let me know.


You're hiding something 'cos it's burning through your eyes,
I tried to get it out but all I hear from you are lies,
And I can tell you're going through the motions,
Figured you were just acting out your part,
Once again we're playing off emotion,
Which one of us will burn until the end,

£100 for a 21st birthday gift isn't a great budget mate

Got more money, but also taking her out to TGIs the night before her birthday, London on her Birthday and having a party on the Saturday.

Yes you can do those things

BUT

£100 still isn't alot for a 21st birthday gift - if your wanting jewellery

Really? There's me thinking it's the thought that counts and considering what me and her have going on this year I think it's pretty damn good.

Also, she isn't particularly wanting Jewelry, I was just thinking of getting her something in that direction.

to be fair, its always nice when your fella gets you a nice piece of jewlery...that he has has to put some thaught into.
with a ring, you will have to find a way of getting her size...and an eternity ring lets her know how much she means, without being all 'lets get engaged' lol

the cost wont be a big deal, as long as it dosent look like it might turn her finger green!

my lass had her 21st last week. week after giving birth so i didnt have the time or money to get what i wanted to get her or what she would have liked, i actually went shopping the day before, which she knew, i ended up getting her jewelry.

BRACELET FTW, can wear em everyday and they have to many rings. looked around couldnt find anything then 2 literally jumped out at me, so bought one cost about £70 from beaverbrooks and the boxing looked like it was worth £50 on its own tbh, bought her a me to u lil photo album so she can put all the photos of WHEN we do go away for her bday in that and remember it as her 21st. got her a me to u photo frame with 21 wrote on, as she loves me to u stuff,, them sum daft lil things like 2 shower gels and lil tiny choc eggs

went down a treat it did, more than she expected

Girls, I guess and blokes. Do you think I am being a bit tight with only spending £100.00 on some form of present, particularly a ring/piece of jewelry?

Just so you know:

- We're going on Holiday to Turkey this year for our one year anniversary
- We're going to Poland
- We're going to Download Festival
- We're going to Reading Festival
- We're going to several gigs

And for her birthday:

- TGIs on the Thursday night before the big day
- London on her birthday
- Birthday party on the Saturday

I know her, she'd rather we go to all these and have a big party on her birthday than anything too expensive. Though considering my money situation, this is expensive ;) But I'd do anything for her, if you guys think it's cheap and can find something better, I'm happy to be put out of pocket.

From what you have said about her....the ring will really be a token rather than something she has been pining after for ages...so id say £100 would do nicely.
