My gold necklace (just a plain rope necklace) that I got myself in 95, a pair of gold earrings in my top holes, my classring from OLLU (it's pretty unique in the fact that it's modeled after the beautitidues) and my diamond and opal pinkie ring (a b-day present for myself).

I always wear my St. Croix hook bracelet (http://www.sonyaltd.com/) that my mom gave me for my 20th birthday. My mom is from St. Croix, so it's like our family tradition; all of my sisters and both of my nieces have them too. I have only taken it off when needed for ritual and cleanings since then.

I am always wearing my silver purity ring (yes, I have one) and one of two necklaces--my diamond cross pendant or my diamond heart pendant (both on silver chains). My mom gave me the cross, so I wear it more but right now it's with her in California, so I'm wearing the heart (which is my first and only diamond thing I could afford to buy for myself) until summer when I can get it back.

My locket I got for Christmas.:)

I have a promise/purity ring that my parents gave me when I was 16. Its gold with diamond hearts. I used to wear it on my left ring finger, but I now where it on my right hand because I was tired to being asked if I was engaged.

I always wear earrings! Typically silver...

My wedding rings. Always!

My letter "j" necklace. My parents gave it to me for my 19th birthday, the first birthday I didn't spend at home (I was at NC State taking finals.) They gave it to me because at home I had a wooden letter J that hung on the wall, and every time we moved that's the first thing my mom would put up in my new room.

ME TOO. My Swiss Army watch recently died, and money's a little tight lately, but I HAD to get another one because it was driving me crazy not having a watch. I kept checking my bare wrist for the time, which is really not all that helpful.

So yeah. I ended up ordering another watch exactly like my first one. It came in the mail yesterday and I rushed to the jeweler up the street (our mail comes late in the afternoon) to get a couple links taken out so I can wear it.

AHHHH.

My two rings. The one on my right middle finger was my Great Grandmother's wedding ring. It is too large for my ring finger and entire left hand. I'd re-size (sp? my computer is unhappy) it except there is an engraving on the inside. On the left hand is the claddagh ring my boyfriend gave me two years ago. I wore it on my left until I was given the other ring. It felt weird having two rings on one hand.

I have a Swiss Army watch that I never leave home without and also wear a silver James Avery charm bracelet.

I have one of the old Renegades--Black, waterproof with a small compass on the band. I love it! I've had it for 10 years now and have only had to change the battery twice. It's been with me half way around the world, including a couple of snowmobiling trips in Iceland. I don't know what I'd do without it :)

HotDamnImAPhiMu 02-01-2009 04:59 PM

I love mine, too. It recently died (after 9 years) so I went out and bought another watch. Exactly like the first one. What can I say? It's the perfect watch for me!

I could never have a watch that wasn't waterproof... I'm absent minded and would constantly forget to take it off to do the dishes, when getting in the shower, etc.

Mine is the Officers 1884, which also comes with a white dial or a blue dial. It's $395 on the Swiss Army website (!!!) but I got it on Overstock.com for $140. What a great deal. It's even cheaper on Amazon.com, a fact I did not know when I placed my order with Overstock.com.

- my "replacement" engagement ring. My actual engagement ring is over 120 years old, and the last time I took it to the jeweler I was told I would need to get it recast or risk losing the rose-cut diamond. Too much money - will wait and get it done if one of my boys marries someone who will appreciate it. The wedding ring caught on a screw on a fence and "pulled", so I don't wear it either. I have a very vintage looking engagement ring from Helzberg that I always wear.
- my badge ring
-my black onyx crest ring
- diamond solitaire earrings

I have a garnet ring that my dad gave me and a necklace that has one charm. On the front of it is a cross, and on the back of the charm is "Rom 5:8".
