This Italian company represents what Italians do best; create works of art with a surrealist sensibility that are provocative and classic all at once. Locman Italy understand the importance of the aesthetic of their watches as a fashion statement and have proven that their winning strategy of creating beautiful objects that are of high quality is a prized combination.

Locman Italy:

Valentine’s Day is quickly sneaking up on us and it’s time to start looking for that perfect gift. It’s not always an easy task finding something for your sweetie that shows the depths of your love and captures her style all at the same time. But let’s face it guys, women love jewelry. If your lady said she doesn’t love jewelry, she’s lying. All women, of every shape, size and color, love gems and jewels and you can never go wrong with them as a gift. Take the pressure off of finding that perfect something for your special someone by following these simple rules:

Simple Rules To Picking Out the Perfect Gift:

Does she want a ring, necklace, bracelet or earrings?

#1: Look at the jewelry she already owns. Does she wear necklaces, bracelets, rings or earrings? This is very particular for each women and as most ladies have one particular type of jewelry that they gravitate towards. Start scooping out what she already wears. If she puts on a pair of earrings every day, she’ll love a new set (just make sure to note if her ears are pierced or not). If she has a collection of rings, that means she REALLY LIKES them and wants more. Take a look at what she puts on day-to-day and pick a jewelry type that she has an affection towards. If she doesn’t wear jewelry on a daily basis, think about a time you got dressed up and remember what type of jewelry she was wearing. If she wore a necklace last time you got dolled up for a night out, chances are good she’ll love another.

Bidz-Favorite Valentine Day Pick 1:

(Luca Carati! Luxurious Ring Made in Italy with 2.86ctw Super Clean Diamonds Made of 18K Two Tone Gold)

Will she wear it?

#2: Think about what’s practical for her. If your lady has a job that requires her to run around all day, she’ll want something that isn’t heavy or that has lots of frills that will cling-and-clang all day. If she has a job that allows her to wear jeans and a t-shirt to work, she’ll want something that compliments her casual fashion. If she has an office job and gets dressed up every day, she’ll want something that is more noticeable. Think about the type of environment she spends her day in and then apply some common sense!

Bidz-Favorite Valentine Day Pick 2:

(Giorgio Visconti Brand New Earrings made in Italy With Precious Stones – Genuine Super Clean Diamonds and 7mm Akoya Pearls. Made in 18K White Gold.)

What’s her style?

#3: There are 2 distinct types of jewelry out there: flashy jewelry and classic jewelry.  Which type your woman wears depends entirely on her personality. If she’s the life-of-the-party, typically wears loud-colored clothing and has an affinity for things that are outrageous, you’re safe with assuming she likes flashy jewelry. This is a piece that will get her noticed. It is unique, large, brightly-colored and stands out. This is a piece that will pass the 10 second rule- someone will notice it on her in the first 10 seconds they look at her.

If your woman is more reserved, tends to be minimalists in all she does and her style can be defined as casual, get her something that is classic. This is something that is elegant and not worn as a focal point. These are jewels that are smaller in size, not brightly colored and tend to be more understated. Think about her personality and incorporate all those wonderful qualities that make you love her so much into picking out her piece.
