What are your favorite jewelry pieces?

mymissingpuzzlepiece

Besides your engagement ring of course...

Mine is a moonstone ring, a hammered silver thumb ring, a david yurman bangle that my FI gave me on our first Christmas together and an antique bangle.


This may be a post and run but I'll be back to read!

It's probably a tie between the earrings FI got for me in Greece and the ruby promise ring he gave me. The earrings actually were how I knew he officially wanted to date me again. After breaking up senior year of high school, we both spent the next two years essentially miserable because we hung out all the time, but he didn't want to get back together, but we both enjoyed each other's company so much that we just could never entirely give the other up. So sophomore year, we both left the country for a few weeks. I went to England and he want to Greece. When I got back, we got together to exchange gifts. (we had grown closer over the past 6 months because we were back in the same town and we hung out more than normal). He gave me this pair of earrings. I wore them to work the next day and when I got home he asked me if my coworkers had noticed, I said yes. He asked if I had told them they were from my boyfriend. I asked him if that's what he was to me, and he said yes. We've been inseparable ever since.

I am not a big jewelry girl, but I always wear the buttefly necklace FI gave me for our first xmas together.  It is rare that I do not wear it.

Beyond my e-ring I love the clauddagh my FI got me years ago when we were just dating.

I wear my sapphire ering, a necklace and a pearl ring just about every day.  The pearl ring FI gave me for Christmas once and same with the necklace.  I actually have several necklaces that FI gave me.  The one I wear most is a little journey pendant. 

When I dress up for really special events I wear a ruby ring my grandmother gave me, a ruby bracelet my parents gave me, and a ruby necklace FI gave me.  In the same matchy matchy scheme, I now have my sapphire ering, a sapphire bracelet my mom gave me, and a sapphire pendant that we won in a cruise ship raffle.  It actually goes really well with my ering!

I love when the jewelry worn has a sentimental value. The bangle that my FI gave me was his first gift ever to me and it was given to me during the time that we fell in love. It means so much to me.

My ering, a pair of black/white diamond earrings FI got me for our 1 year, my open hearts black/white diamond key pendant necklace FI got me for xmas last year and my amethyst/diamond ring my dad got me when I was 15 (I've worn this ring EVERYDAY since I've gotten it. A couple of the diamonds have fallen out, so it makes me sad :-( )

I have a sapphire e-ring too :) Mine is a violet sapphire.. what is yours? I think I see that it is blue but not sure.

The amethyst heart pendant FI gave me for our 1st anniversary and the promise ring he gave me for Yule last year.  He actually proposed with my promise ring and we went out the next day to pick out an engagement ring (which, heh, follows the purple amethyst heart theme of most of my jewelry he's given me:) )

I wear a diamond eternity cross FI bought me for our first Christmas.  I think over the years I have taken it off only once or twice.

Yup, it is a dark blue sapphire :)

Dark blue sapphires FTW!

I love my pearls that my grandmother gave to me for my 18th birthday and the seed pearl set that my Mom and Dad gave me for my 21st. I also really love the emerald ring I got for my 25th.

My FI bought me a gold beaded necklace with brown and gold beads on it with a heart for our first month anniverary of officially being together.  I absolutely adore it. He bought me the matching bracelet that same year for my birthday.  I also have my first piece of LeVian jewely that my FI got me for Valentine's day after we had been together over a year.  It is a chocolate pearl with a swirl of chocolate diamonds wrapped around it.  I wear this almost everyday  It came with a silk braided cord instead of a chain... after a year or so the cord got frayed and he bought me a gold chain to match.  It looks beautiful together

I have a few. A sapphire and diamond heart pendant necklace, and diamond studs that were my Grandmothers, that my Grandfather gave me after she passed away in 2007. Then after that it is my matching "love's embrace" necklace  FI gave it to my for our 1 yr anniversary in Feb, and the earring gave me on my birthday in April. I wear the erring he gave me and my Grandmother's everyday, and the necklace he gave me as well.

I am from the south - My pearls.

The only piece of jewelry I wear all the time is my pinky ring. It might as well be a part of me. I've also been wearing my Trans-Siberian Orchestra necklace I got last month a lot. I don't wear necklaces a lot because I'm allergic to a lot of metals, but this one seems to be working well for me.

I also have my lip and tongue pierced, but I don't weat the lip ring for anything dressy/important.

This is the closest picture I could find.  Trust mine is not that expensive, but it is extremely similar.  I absolutely love it, and it goes with everything.

<div>That's so pretty! I might have to share that pic with FI :)</div>

Obviously my e-ring. But I miss a necklace that my fi had given me. It was a chained necklace he got as a child that had he was not to give away except to the one he would marry. I got it caught while wrestling one time and it broke into pieces...
Other than that, it would be the two rings I have - a ruby one my mom bought me (identical to my sister's, but her ring is sapphire) and a diamond band my grandma gave me (was her I think 35 or 40 year anniversary gift from my grandpa, now departed).
