What’s Special about Birthdays?


Everyone has birthdays. What’s so special about the day your mom gave birth to you? After all she did all the hard work and the rest of the family did all the worrying. Why is all the attention of the anniversary of the day you were born focused only on you? To put it simply, every year you celebrate the anniversary of your birth or your ‘Birthday’ is a milestone. A marker to let the world know you’re alive for one more year and your parents want to share the sheer joy of having you in their lives. Birthdays are anticipated for the gifts it brings and the great fun to be had by the Birthday Baby as well as her friends and family.

As you grow, it’s not only a special day filled with cake, chocolates and new clothes, but the gateway to a new year filled with opportunities. Birthdays are a unique celebration as they are meant only for an individual but everyone known to the Birthday Baby wants to be in on the celebration. Giving gifts is one way of assuring the person celebrating her birthday that she is loved and cherished. Most times, giving gifts is fraught with danger, as the person giving the gift is unsure about how well a gift is received.

The best gift to give, especially to a woman, is jewellery. Except rings, for which you need to know the ring size, you can give any type of jewellery and it will be received with great delight. Even men love getting gifts like sterling silver bracelets, rings and watches set with cubic zircons. For very close friends, Orderyourchoice.com in India has a trendy range of anklets designs to make even the most conservative girls squeal in delight.

The range of jewellery gifts for men to are growing on virtual shelves. The Anvita range of sterling silver rings for men features rings with chain -link ring shanks that are very comfortable to wear even at the office. The Diagonal Stripe Silver Band is a great example of a men’s ring that can be worn with formal and casual clothes- especially suitable for Dads and Uncles who may be shy about wearing prominent jewellery.


Husbands wonder every year what to gift their wives. Many of them end up giving practical things that aren’t romantic at all. Romance means Jewellery and it’s not all that expensive to gift sterling silver jewellery studded with cubic zircons or imported Austrian crystal jewellery. The most shimmering and sentimental gifts include the latest mangalsutra designs that a wife would love to flaunt when her husband takes her out to dinner.
