If you're looking for the perfect gift for any girl or woman in your life, consider a pair of diamond earrings. Timeless and elegant, diamond earrings are always in style, and are appropriate for females of all ages. 

Diamond earrings make the ideal present for almost any special event or occasion, including birthdays, holidays such as Christmas, Valentine's Day, and Easter, bridal and baby showers, anniversaries, graduations, and weddings. The gemstone earrings are also thoughtful "just because," "thinking of you" and "get well" gifts.  

Depending on your gift-giving budget and the age of the recipient, the diamond earrings that you pick out can range from small, dainty studs to a more eye-catching chandelier style. Consider any metal allergies that the female may have, such as nickel. If you aren't sure, stick with real gold or sterling silver bases. 

Although diamond earrings will work for any birthday, they're particularly ideal for those born in April as it's the gemstone associated with that month. Stick with just the diamond earrings, or go with an entire jewelry set to commemorate her birth month.

Here are some additional diamond earring gift ideas to consider:

1. Love-Inspired Earrings 

If the earrings are a gift for a loved one, such as your wife or daughter, choose a pair that reflects that. For instance, buy a pair of sweet heart-shaped earrings either featuring diamonds all around the perimeter or one center gemstone. You can typically choose from either a silver or white, yellow, rose, or platinum gold base, depending on your budget or the recipient's preference. 

Round out the gift with other love-themed jewelry pieces, such as a matching necklace pendant or bracelet charm. A heart-shaped diamond ring or locket also makes sentimental presents. Although you can go with heart-shaped jewelry for any occasion, it's especially appropriate on Valentine's Day or an anniversary. 

2. Diamond Set 

Treat your favorite lady to a piece of diamond jewelry set featuring any type of earring style, such as delicate studs or bold hoops. Pick earrings featuring all diamonds, or combine the look with other gemstones, such as rubies, emeralds, or sapphires. 

Combine the earrings with a matching tennis bracelet, a ring, a pendant, or all three if you desire. As a personal touch, go with a theme that reflects the recipient's passions or hobbies. Some examples include flower-shaped jewelry for a gardener, dogs, cats, or birds for animal lovers, or any sport-inspired design, such as a basketball or tennis racket.
