January is a very hectic month. After the holiday rush, many of us feel a lack of creativity or assume that our loved ones have all the gifts they need. However, a January birthday is the perfect time to brighten those post-holiday blues with a thoughtful and unique gift. You may be wondering what to buy someone with a January birthday and that’s where we come to help! From birthstone jewellery to practical timepieces, there is a gift for all Capricorn’s and Aquarius’. Let’s dive into our recommendations!
What to Buy Someone with a January Birthday – Our Recommendations
A Special Piece of Garnet Jewellery
Birthstone jewellery is always a thoughtful gift idea. Not only does it showcase the time you took to consider your loved one’s birthday but it also makes the recipient feel extra special; as they are wearing something so unique and personal. This beautiful pair of earrings is a fantastic gift for those with a January birthday. The deep red garnets are set into 9ct yellow gold for a luxurious look. This material is also favoured for its timeless appeal, so the earrings will look as good in the ear in years to come as they do today. A simple post and butterfly closure ensures the earrings won’t come loose in the lobe. Furthermore, this closure provides great comfort.
A Watch with Red Accents
If you’re asking yourself ‘What should I buy someone with a January birthday?’, why not consider a watch? After all, the gift of time is precious. Red can be quite a bold choice for a watch, however, when used correctly, it can create a stylish statement on the wrist. And this Rotary Seamatic watch does exactly that! Against the black dial, the red minute hand and minute track pop. Although these are the only red accents on the watch, they make their presence known. This watch’s 42mm case size ensures it suits a variety of wrists. So even if you’re not fully confident about the recipient’s measurements, the watch will most likely fit. Sleek, sporty and suitable for daily wear, it’s a fantastic gift for a January birthday.
A Nomination Charm
Due to their unique and personalisable nature, Nomination charms make excellent gifts. When it comes to birthday-themed charms, the choice is nothing but impressive! From birthstones to birthday cakes and ages, there is something for everyone. This ‘Oval Stones’ charm, however, is our favourite. Showcasing the January birthstone in all its beauty, it features an oval-cut garnet with a bonded yellow gold outline. With no text or any additional details, it allows the attention to remain on the natural semiprecious gemstone and its deep red hues. Whether you buy this charm on its own or purchase it alongside several others, it is a thoughtful gift to buy someone with a January birthday.
An Additional Watch Strap
You can never have enough watch straps. So why not purchase one for your loved one with a January birthday? Whether you go down the red route or stick to something classic, an additional watch strap can change your look in seconds! This one, from Garmin, gives you the best of both worlds. The black silicone strap features flame-red adjustment holes. While only a small detail, it provides a striking contrast to the black silicone. Although not visible, the underside of the strap is also flame-red. A bright and bold surprise, it playfully toys with the colour of the January birthstone.
