1. Buy costume jewellery designs that will fit all types of recipients. For this purpose, avoid the bold ones or those that have too much dazzling effects. Keep them simple and the colors easy to match with any piece of clothing as to color and design. This doesn’t mean however, that they stay neutral or plain looking or they will lack their charm as an adornment. Choose the multi-colored designs but make sure the colors are not loud or vulgar.
