The self-gifting trend is growing, with more shoppers saying they plan to treat themselves as well as their loved ones. In the US, 62% of Gen Z shoppers said they plan to buy themselves a Christmas gift this year, and Brits are following suit.
Whether you’re rewarding yourself for the year’s hard work, celebrating a personal milestone, or just showing yourself some TLC, there’s no self-love gift that hits the mark quite like a beautiful piece of jewellery. If you’re in search of something special “from you to you”, Abbott Lyon offers a selection of exquisite customisable pieces to make you feel spoiled.
Here are some tips for choosing the perfect jewellery self-care gift this festive season.
Self-Love Gifts: Choosing Your Own Jewellery
Luckily, you already know your own personal style and preferences better than anyone! This should help to guide you in choosing a piece that you’ll get the most out of. Before you make your choice, here are a few questions you can ask yourself to help narrow it down:
- Do you want a piece for everyday wear, or special occasions only?
- Is this piece within your self-gifting budget?
- Will the piece complement your wardrobe and can you wear it with multiple outfits?
- Will it match your existing jewellery and can you easily combine it with other pieces?
- Are you buying it because it’s “on trend” and if so, will you still wear it if it goes out of style?
- Is it made from high-quality materials that will last you for many years?
- Will you still love this piece a year from now?
The right self-love gift should check most if not all of these boxes.
Personalised Jewellery is Perfect for Self-Gifting
Adding a personalised touch to your self-love gift will make it much more meaningful. Here are a few ways you can customise your self-love gift.
1. Your name or initial
Your name is an integral part of you and your story, so wear it with pride. Find a piece of initial or name jewellery that complements your personal style.
2. Your zodiac sign
If you have a love of astrology, celebrate yourself with a piece of jewellery featuring your star sign. Abbot Lyon’s zodiac jewellery includes a selection of beautiful pendants and bracelet charms.
3. Your birthstone
Choose a piece of birthstone jewellery that features the gemstone associated with your birth month. You can even combine your birthstone, your initials and your zodiac sign together in one piece, to create something that represents your uniqueness.
4. Your favourite angel number
Is there an angel number that means something important to you? Wear one of our angel number necklaces as an empowering symbol to guide you through good times and bad.
5. A meaningful message to yourself
Choose a piece of jewellery that can be engraved with an inspirational self-love message. You can wear the piece as a daily reminder that you deserve love and good things. Our engraved jewellery selection includes pendants, bracelets, rings and watches.
We all deserve to feel special, so when you’re making up your festive gift shopping list, don’t forget to include yourself!
