If the woman in your life has asked for jewellery, the options really are endless. If they’ve given you little guidance, when it comes to choosing something, we’d recommend opting for a simple piece that they will wear every day. And you really can’t go wrong with Astrid & Miyu’s rope bracelet. It’s got a nice thickness to it, yet still feels dainty and looks lovely when worn alone, but equally as nice when stacked with other bracelets – particularly the brand’s bold tennis bracelet (£85, Astridandmiyu.com). Despite coming in at just £60, it looks far more expensive and will be a piece that she will cherish. When ordering, don’t forget to bear in mind whether they’re a gold or silver wearer.
