Jewelry Options for a Birthstone: December

If you are lucky enough to be born in December you really have plenty of jewelry options to choose from. Plus most of this jewelry is blue. Blue is often thought of as one of the most popular colors which can make this very collectible. In fact you might even have a few pieces of this kind of jewelry even though you weren’t technically born in December. There is really a very wide range to choose from. For some reason this is often the most disputed of all the months. You can pick from zircon, Topaz, turquoise and tanzanite. This gives you the opportunity to really make the choice depending on your budget as well as your own personal tastes. Most of the other months really don't have this much leeway so you can really celebrate the month that you were born in a lot of different ways.

A really fun option would be to find pieces that have several of the different December birthstones in them. It might be difficult at first. Then you will really have to shop around. Another option would be to just layer a lot of different stones or create one yourself. For instance you could find different tanzanite rough necklaces and pair it with a turquoise bracelet or even a turquoise necklace on top of that. This way you won't even have to figure out what the December birthstone is because you'll be wearing all of them.

One of the great things about having multiple birthstones is that you can really pay attention to the trends. If you were born in July you might even only own one of these rubies in your entire lifetime. However, when you are dealing with lot less expensive stones you can really get very fashionable looks. This will definitely be different than most of the jewelry that most other women are wearing to commemorate their birth.

For instance you could find a very large gold ring in a fashionable feather shape with just a small stone accent. This could be costume jewelry or even made out of real gold depending on your price range. Then when it becomes outdated you really don't have to feel bad about replacing it. This is great if you like to change out your jewelry a lot. This is really important if your jewelry is really what you are known for. You can either go with a very bold signature piece that people will always recognize you by or you are just constantly changing things out so you have a very fashionable look that really gives you a lot of wow factor.

You can really play around a lot of with color. When you're matching these different stones they will really correlate to each other because they have a little bit of a different feeling to them. They all seem to be a little bit cool and might even remind you of winter. Tanzanite does have a lot of darker blues to it but range towards pale lavender. You might be able to find a ring set in 14 carat yellow gold with a large turquoise center stone and then a few tanzanite accent stones. This really gives you the best of both worlds because oftentimes tanzanite is very expensive and very elegant looking. Turquoise is very inexpensive and very casual looking. You really can combine both to get a totally unique look.

If you're looking for a birthstone for December you might want to consider Topaz. It will be a lot easier to find and less expensive then zircon. Plus, you'll have a variety of colors to choose from within this kind of palette. For instance, you may be able to find a Swiss blue topaz which will be light and bright. A London blue Topaz will be almost a teal kind of color. This way you can still get in your personality, as well as your personal preferences while still getting your birthstone. This can almost mimic a blue diamond, but it will really be a lot cheaper. Plus, you can really get the very large stones because it's so inexpensive. You could keep in with that cool feeling by going with a modern look. In this case you want to find a large cushion or Princess cut stones that will really be the focal point and add a lot of color to any outfit and it will match anything just because blue is so easy to wear.
