Do you wear jewelry everyday?

No not really as only wear earrings to church on Sundays! If I can get up in enough time LOL!

The only jewelry I don't take off is the silver Crucifix I wear around my neck. Other than that I don't wear other jewelry like earrings unless I'm getting dressed up. It's strange because as a teenager in the 80s I was known around school for my funky earrings and habit of wearing rings on every finger, including my thumb. Now I can't stand the feel of it.

I used to wear earrings, rings, and a necklace all day every day, but for the past 15 years or so I haven't worn any jewelry unless I go out. I don't wear rings anymore though because I get annoyed with them when I wash my hands and it's just easier to not have them on.

I still wear my Italian charm bracelet from time to time although I'm probably the last person on earth to do so. I'm so mad they fell out of fashion so quickly because I love them!! Thanks a lot, Pandora.

I have three full ones. I was upset when they went out of style too. I was the team mom for oldest DD's soccer team and a couple of the moms noticed I wore the Italian charm bracelets and that I had a collection of Mickey Mouse watches. At the end of one of my last seasons they presented me with a FULL bracelet, all Disney except for a "soccer mom" charm and a soccer ball charm. I was stunned! At the time I guessed they had to have spent at least $200 on it. I just couldn't believe they did that. I bust it out on a Disney trip every once in awhile.

I used to wear full on jewelry everyday. Three sets of studs, two or three necklaces, bracelets, nice watch, rings (usually double stacked) on two or three fingers of each hand plus thumb rings, ankle bracelets and a couple toe rings. I had necklaces I'd switch out for seasons (a gold reindeer w/ruby nose, a pukka shell necklace etc.) I'd switch out fancier earrings/bracelets/watches if we were going out.

But here's what happened. I had my jeweler make me this gorgeous wedding band for my 10th anniversary. It's a very thick band with eternity rings on either side. He gave me two warnings about it; it would cost major bucks if I ever needed it resized and that I needed to take it off daily so my finger could breath. So I got in the habit of taking all my jewelry off every night and slowly over time just quit putting it back on except for my wedding rings. Then I gained a ton of weight and couldn't wear them. Then I lost a ton of weight and weigh less than I did when I had it made so can't wear them. All my rings are too big now. I tend to only put on my jewelry if we're going out (with small cheapy bands in front to keep them from sliding off)

I have a heart shaped, diamond solitaire necklace and a pair of princess studs (and my Fitbit) that I don't take off. I miss my jewelry though so went and had a chat with my jeweler and he says with the equipment they have now he could possibly resize my band. However, I fell in love with a very simple, elegant, eternity band while there. I think it's something I'd put on and leave on. My 25th is coming up so we've already started our campaign with DH.

I wear my wedding set, two birthstone rings (one for each son), a cross necklace, and the diamond necklace from my grandma each day. The rings come off each night for bed but the necklaces are always on (too hard to get on and off!). All of my jewelry is connected to someone special to me.

 

[ronandannette]

Yeah, every day but it's nothing super-glamorous. My wedding rings and a simple cross on a chain (I've got a few that I alternate). And around Christmas I got mad at having to re-pierce my ears on the extremely rare occasions when I wanted to wear earrings. I acquired a very small pair of sterling silver sleeper-hoops and haven't taken them out since.

 

[wenrob]

I wear jewelry only when I leave the house. Watch for sure and maybe a ring and necklace. As soon as I step back inside my house, all jewelry comes off. I don't wear my wedding rings because they are not my taste and I was not asked my opinion on style before my husband bought them. He picked out his own wedding ring and wears it everyday.

You sound a little...resentful...of your wedding rings. Couldn't you trade them in/have something made from them you'd like?

 

[RedAngie]

Just a few piercings below the neck.

 

[tarheelmjfan]

I never take off my three wedding rings (engagement, wedding & eternity) & the ring DH bought me for my birthday our first year together. I usually wear a necklace & earrings, when I get dressed up. I occasionally add bracelets & more rings, if I'm getting exceptionally dressed up. How much jewelry I wear mostly depends on what I'm wearing. If I wear a shirt or dress with bling, I wear less jewelry. If it's a plain outfit, I go all out with jewelry. I'd wear the mother/son necklace DS bought me everyday, if I wasn't concerned it would tarnish in the shower.

 

[GaSleepingBeautyFan]

Pretty much - I wear my wedding rings, my fitbit, earrings and either a bracelet or necklace. I have fun making my own jewelry so I like to wear it.

I'd also wear more rings if I could find ones l like in larger sizes - I'd love to have one on my thumb for sure.

 

[ols386]

Pierced earrings everyday....fake pearls. That's all.

 

[Neesy228]

I like jewelry, and everything I wear has some meaning to it....so, pretty much every day I wear: my engagement and anniversary bands, a mothers ring, a Mickey Mouse pinky ring and a silver band on my thumb. A small circle necklace that was my MIL's. Diamond stud earrings and a series of bracelets - bangles and charm - given to me by my children, husband or siblings. I rarely take them off.

 

[Aimeedyan]

I own a lot of costume/trendy/statement jewelry that I wear everyday (if I'm leaving the house) in addition to my wedding ring. Wearing it is just part of my work attire so I automatically put it on on my day off.

Though I have a lot of bracelets, I find them uncomfortable when using the laptop at work so I don't wear them as often. But always a necklace (or scarf) + earrings + statement ring on my right hand.

 

[MarieandMe]

I don't wear jewelry often at all, which is a shame because I actually love jewelry and have plenty of it. I can probably count on one hand the # of times per month I put on a piece of jewelry. I just see no point of it around the house. If I go out to run typical errands I also don't see the point in wearing it then either. Special outings or dates, I always wear a few things. Luckily my husband doesn't care whether or not I wear a wedding ring but he probably wonders why I want so much jewelry if I rarely wear it!
This may be good motivation for me to starting wearing some even around the house. Simply to use and enjoy what I have.

I know lots of ladies who are very "put together" like that and always have on just the right piece to compliment their outfit. Not me though but I do find it attractive.

Not resentful at all. I just don't care for them and I'm extremely picky about my clothes and jewelry. Of course I could trade them for something else however I lose interest in jewelry very quickly so no sense getting different ones. I probably wouldn't wear them most of the time anyway. Way down the list of priorities in my life.

 

[monorailsilver]

I wear my engagement and wedding ring. My fingers grew...like the rest of me so I had not worn either ring for at least 5 years, most likely more. I felt naked! I wore them to bed too.

We finally got them fixed a year or so ago and now I wear them (new band/soldered together) when I go out and I will turn around to come back home to get it if I forgot because I feel naked again. I don't wear them to bed yet. My fingers swell with the heat of blankets and pillows.

I used to wear earrings but my ears got irritated, or they just annoyed me and I put them on my and I think they fell on the floor and I vacuumed them up.

Very rare I will wear a bracelet and I never wear a necklace but I would if it had diamonds, I'd never take it off!
