Her Perfect Birthday the Canadian Way

The Fashionista is a woman ahead of the fashion game: Her unique style makes her a show-stopper everywhere she goes. The downside? It seems as though she already has one of everything – plus a spare. Relax, we’ve got you covered! Get her something she’s never seen before, like these White Glazed Rose Earrings in 24K Gold. She’ll be so impressed. Look who’s fashion-forward now!

Like Marilyn Monroe, the Lover is the ultimate seductress. She’s fun, flirty, and full of life! Feeling connected and in love is important to her, so why not book a surprise getaway (near or far) where the two of you can experience new things, places, and memories together? The keywords for the Lover are intimacy, poems, love songs, keepsake items, jewellery, alone time, candlelit dinners, shared experiences, and romantic outings – that’s the way to her heart.

The Nurturer is a woman who puts others’ wellbeing before her own. She takes ultimate care of everyone, makes you feel “at home,” and is tender and generous in all possible ways. Why not give back to her by making her birthday a day full of pampering? A day at the spa, a day of splurging in boutiques while the kids are babysat. Finish the day with a romantic dinner for just the two of you. A day full of spoiling her and relieving her of any chores is something any Nurturer would appreciate.

Meet the powerhouse archetype, the Thinker. The Thinker is typically a woman of the corporate world or an academic of sorts who loves planning, strategizing, and any type of advancement toward her goals. She loves being in the know and keeping her brain stimulated with new concepts, facts, statistics and methods to better herself. This type of woman appreciates a good book, tickets to a ground-breaking lecture, a self-paced e-course, or a few new fancy items for work life (like a pen for signing those important contracts!). Don’t be fooled by what may sometimes come across as emotional unavailability. She has many feelings, so if your lady is a Thinker, don’t forget to show her some TLC!

Strong, agile, and motivated, the Athlete is a champion in whatever she puts her mind to. Why not surprise her with some brand-new sports activity gear? Or tickets to see a game together? By the way, did you know that golf is the fastest-growing female sport in Canada? Sorry, hockey! Statistics show that 25 percent of golfers in Canada are female. If your Athlete is one of them, consider surprising her with something ultra-different, thoughtful, and sure to make her smile, like this Playable Golf Ball and Tee Set in 24k Gold. How cool is that? Game on!

Overflowing with creativity and inspired by what surrounds her, Artist sees beauty in the strangest things (which means she’ll recognize the effort you put into that hand-drawn card!). Though she might appreciate the beauty of objects, this is not typically her main concern. Experiencing life with all of her senses is what inspires her. Why not go museum-hopping? An evening picnic in the city, perhaps? Things that will help her create something are always appreciated. Oh, and share your deepest feelings. Artists love feelings.

Soulful, free-spirited, and introspective, the Mystic is the type of woman who exudes the qualities of a goddess. She is confident, aware, and feeds her own happiness by helping and empowering others. Mystics are typically spiritual and appreciate activities that make them feel connected to things, places, and people on a deeper level. How about taking her for a magical walk through one of Canada’s amazing national parks? Or maybe attending a yoga class together with a few new accessories? Enjoying a small music venue over drinks, perhaps? Smaller gifts such as a sampler box of artisanal teas or a little plant are also things the Mystic would find highly touching.
