Moon Dikhai
Salaam Ladies,
I am trying to figure out what to give for moon dikhai. What is the on-going theme days. From what I have talked to friends Diamond is must and my family is against giving a ring, so I could go with Pendant, Studs or Bracelet ? Should I get something which could be worn every day or something which could be worn a l of times but not all the time or it does not matter ? I have my eyes on a bracelet which has a lot of small diamonds vs a Solitaire pendant . They cost almost the same actaullay the bracelet is somewhat more. What would you prefer ?
Re: Moon Dikhai
better ask the person u want to give
Re: Moon Dikhai
^ but that would take away the surprise element!
Re: Moon Dikhai
A hundred $1 bills - crisp ones - unused , untraceable.
Re: Moon Dikhai
necklace is better....but you should try to notice the girl....does she wear bracelets? what about neclaces, and how often....some girls don't wear one or the other....
Re: Moon Dikhai
I'd say necklace. And something that'd be for everyday but still has that "wow" element. I don't know about a solataire necklace, I think a pendant with some sort of design might look better, but that's probably just me.
But try to figure out from her style what she would like the most. My suggestion for pendant is only if you have no clue. Oh and try asking her sister or close friend :-)
Good luck!
Re: Moon Dikhai
Oh and I disagree with "diamonds are a must" for Moon dikhayi. Yes, a diamond would be nice for engagement or for a wedding ring, but for moon dikhayi I don't think it's a MUST.
That being said, I'd think a diamond pendant would be nicer than a gold one. :)
Re: Moon Dikhai
my suggestion would be diamond studs that she could wear everyday, or a diamond tennis bracelet which is a classic in a girls jewelry wardrobe.
my other thought is get her a silver set of earrings, necklace, and bracelet from tiffany & co. they are pretty reasonably priced in comparison to anything diamond and make a big statement. good luck!
Re: Moon Dikhai
^^^^
I agree with afashionistalives...Studs are great for everyday. Necklaces then again she might not wear everyday, especially if you guys are living in the states.
So tennis bracelet or really pretty studs all the way :)
Re: Moon Dikhai
what I am wondering is why is your family against giving a ring? what if she wants the ring?
just curious!
Re: Moon Dikhai
DOnt go with whats in, get what YOU want her to have. I didnt know what i was getting and hubs gave me a gold chain and a pendant. I like wearing it on an everyday basis and it means a lot to me.
Re: Moon Dikhai
i like fayax's idea. lol.
Thank you for everyone who responded. My Grandmother is against me giving the ring (only for Moon Dikhai) may be some tradition, may be some superstitious stuff but she would not tell me and I would not rather not argue much or go against her wishes.... Almost all my friends who got married in Pakistan give a solitaire ring because no one did the same on thier engagement (including me) but since that is out for me thats where the confusion started
I would have thought about studs, but after trying to get her preference for jewelry overall, it seems she does not like tops.She has not been in states or any other European country before so may be after living here for a while, she would like them.. but then I can give them on some other occassion later in my life.. Simiarly I am not sure she would be that much into Silver (even from Tiffanies)...I know she likes 22 ct gold and even take some to digest 18 ct.
It seems that overall a bracelet would be her favorite piece of Jewelry and I think she wouldn't mind the pendant either but living in Pakistan not sure what would have the "wow" effect... Also can one wear a bracelet every day. ? Its very easy to find and discern a good quality solitaire (buy them certified etc) but I am not sure about the bracelet and worried about the size...
Re: Moon Dikhai
I would personally love a diamond pendant, one you can wear on a daily basis. You cant wear a bracelet everyday though. Good luck picking out the perfect present!
Re: Moon Dikhai
Since she is in Pakistan, you have a little bit more of an option for an everyday piece as opposed to if she lived in the States. I loveee jewellery, but still I cannot wear some things everyday, like dangling gold earrings or a fancy necklace that people might wear all the time in Pakistan. It just doesn't fit into the workplace or school setting. Simple gold necklaces etc. may work here in the States though.
So anyway, yes a bracelet may be worn everyday, but still not as often as a necklace or earrings. Sometimes a bracelet can get in the way, but not always. You are correct to mention fitting!! Because if it's too loose than the bracelet will become an annoyance, and if it's too tight then it doesn't look right. You can always adjust the bracelet's length later, but if it's a tennis bracelet, I am not sure (maybe one of the other girls here know--or you can ask when you buy it). But if you are sure it's her favorite piece, and will make her happy then it sounds nice! And I'm sure she'll wear it everyday in Pakistan, if it's a tennis bracelet she can def. wear it a lot over here, and if it's a gold one then too she might wear it everyday if she loves bracelets so much.
Back to necklaces---I'm sure she'll like that too. I dunno but the whole idea of a necklace to wear around your neck to show your husband's love is very sweet. Especially in Pakistan, it'll be something she can wear everyday. And if it's a solataire or another simple but elegant necklace then it'll look nice in the workplace here too if she ever decides to work.
One problem with a pendant mayyy be that she won't have matching earrings, and mayyybbe she might not like wearing it without some earrings. So if you can also get some small earrings (doesn't have to be tops or studs) she can def. complete the look. Again, this would be NICE if you could do it, but it is not something critical.
About diamonds in general...I know they're gaining popularity in Pakistan, but some people there prefer gold only, and think of a diamond as just a plain stone, and don't realize it's value. It's just a cultural difference between the West and the traditional Pakistani. So try to find out if she how much she does like diamonds. Has she talked about it before? I know I bug my fiance about diamonds all the time, even though he already gave me a ring :-D
Oh and solataires def. have the "wow" element in the U.S., but in Pakistan...not so sure...I think you're better off going with a diamond pendant with a design for Pakiland people's taste.
Hope you find the perfect gift! And don't stress about it too much, I am confident she will love any piece you decide to give her :-)
