    What jewellery do you wear?

    Yesterday at playgroup, we got into a discussion about jewellery, and I appeared to be in the minority in that I wear the exact same items all the time, irregardless of time of day, my outfit, where I am going. Most people said they wore different things depending on where they are going and what they are wearing.

    so what do you wear?

    I ALWAYS wear a chain around my neck (use to be 2 until one broke so now the charms are on the same chain) with my pentagram (with runes on it) and my Tardis. and I ALWAYS wear my engagement ring (and my wedding ring - even though its not technically jewellery). I also only have plain studs or sleepers in my ears (8 holes). This stuff I NEVER take off.

    Stuff that i put on when I'm getting ready in the mornings, I take off at night in bed, and I take off in the shower are: a ring on my right thumb (did have another ring I wore but it too broke), I wear another necklace that has my triple skull. and I have 2 bracelets, both are skulls, but one has rainbow skulls on elastic and the other is turquoise and black knots.

    I used to wear my rings everyday. Feels wierd without them.

    My watch band has worn through (stainless steel!), so I need that fixed. Worn it every day for the last 10 years, even my wedding day. Missing it!
    My necklace, has 7 lucky rings on it. My anklet. Cheapy I bought from Avon 2.5 year ago & is still in one piece! & my belly ring. That varies though.
    I don't take any of the above off.

    I have 3 earring holes, but don't think to wear earrings often at all. Holes just don't close!
    I don't have much jewellery to swap around.

    I don't wear anything. I think my engagement and wedding rings are in a cupboard somewhere. Haven't seen them for a couple of years. I don't even like to wear a watch.

    Mine changes daily.

    Most days it is a necklace and one or two rings.

    Occasionally a bracelet.

    I used to wear my Tiffany & Co double loveheart necklace every day but the catch holding the two hearts onto the chain has come off & disappeared, I have to go and get it replaced.

    But I have to take everything off to go to bed, I also have to take what I've worn to work off when I get home (as part of the after work ritual).

    I never remove my jewllery. Not to shower or bed or anything. I always have- engagement, wedding, eternity rings. A ring mum gave me for my 16th. An amber necklace, and a pendant that says ' I love you to the moon,' with my kids name. I wore a harmony ball while pregnant and breastfeeding, but sadly that is packed away. I ave a belly and ear piercings, but don't wear them any more.

    None.
    I will wear some if there is an event or I am going out somewhere dressy.
    I used to wear my engagement and wedding rings and that was it.

    I never take off the jewellery that i wear.

    The ring DP bought me for valentines day when i was 17, the ring he bough me for valentines day last year and the studs in my ears. I used to wear my engagement ring but since he doesn't want to get married i don't wear it anymore.

    He bought me a gorgeous pendant but i'm allergic to the chain its on, my neck breaks out in a horrible rash so can't wear it until he buys a new chain for me.

    I used to be huge on jewellery, particularly fake stuff from Diva if i went out i'd wear a bunch of rings, bracelets, bangles, necklaces and big dangley earrings but since having kids i don't wear any of it.

    you could be allergic to nickel like me. I can only wear stainless steal, or pewter because everything else has nickel in it. (even silver coins here in australia have the damn stuff in it, my hands get so itchy if i hold change). sterling silver is full of the stuff here. but in the UK it isn't allowed in jewellery unless it specifically says 'contains nickel'.

    Yeah i do have a nickel allergy, my engagement ring is white gold and has a small percentage of nickel in it and sometimes when wearing it my finger flares up

    Engagement ring, wedding ring & diamond earrings. I usually wear a gold bracelet too but a small link broke and I keep forgetting to get it fixed. I also wear a gold necklace in occasion but DD3 loves to pull at it and I'm scared she'll break it.

    I wear my wedding & engagement rings and usually the same earings (either diamond studs or sleepers). If I am going out I will put on a bracelet, change my earings and sometimes put on a necklace.

    My engagement & wedding rings are the only thing I wear regularly. But half the time I don't as I forget to put them back on after washing up, changing the baby's bum, showering, bathing kids etc.
    I sometimes wear studs but the baby tries to rip them out so usually I don't bother.

    only things i wear all the time are my earrings - and they only get changed if there is a spesh occassion to change them for
    i usually have an amber necklace on but took it off yesterday to wear a different one just because - and forgot to put it on last night

    i have to get the diamonds in my wedding and engagement rings checked as one is catching, so haven't worn them for a while now.

    if we're going out, i put on whatever matches my mood and clothes at the time. usually a couple of rings, two bracelets and an anklet. i used to wear more, all the time, but since having DD and developing dermatitis under rings from all the extra hand washing, i just don't bother. plus she asks for the same amount of bling as mummy - so if i put a bracelet on, she HAS to have one on too - and she just doesn't ahve as much to choose from as me, so i go without...

    Pretty boring here. Wedder, engagement and eternity rings and sleepers.

    I will change my earrings or add a costume necklace/bangle if I'm getting dressed up but not very often that happens lol.
