What Jewelry are you Never Without?

[dzsaigirl]

I always wear my Timex Ironman Triathlon watch, you know, the one with the velcro band.

My engagement ring on my left hand.

My silver and blue topaz James Avery ring on my right hand or my JA two toned ring with the heart garnet...my biological sister and I both have that ring, so it is special to me.

My gold James Avery cross. It is a cross made made of branching roses...so pretty. I usually have it inside my shirt.

I have really sensitive ears, so I rarely wear earrings. They have to be pure gold, silver or plat or they will make my ears infected...even those pure metals irritate me a little.

The one thing I am never without is my watch. It's a two tone Citizen with my sorority insignia on the face. My parents bought it for me last Christmas.

There are 3 pieces of jewlery i am NEVER without. My necklace with my sorority letters on a paddle stays on 24/7. Every morning when i get up i put on my promise ring and my watch. For someone who has such a problem with running on time I am obsessive compulsive about having my watch on. Without my watch I just can't function! Is anyone else like this?

I can honestly say that I am never without my AGD lavalier and my hoop earrings

I always wear my wedding band and engagement ring, although I do take them off if I'm putting on lotion or sticky hair stuff. I also always wear an old fashioned, small, white gold and diamond ring on my right hand, middle finger. It was my grandmother's, and it is actually stuck on my finger so I never remove it.

I wear three earrings in my left ear and two in my right, and the only ones I take out are the bottom ones because I don't wear the same ones every day. I also always wear a watch, except when I'm at home.

Usually, I wear a silver Mignon Faget pylon barbed band ring on my right thumb. I like it because it's unique, and sort of tough looking. I almost always wear my Tiffany heart tag bracelet, which has my cats' initials instead of mine. Finally, I usually wear a necklace or a scarf, but that changes every day.

I absolutely LOVE jewelry and I have a lot of different things, but it's funny that I wear the same stuff almost every day.

Did all of these people start buying Mignon Faget pieces after the whole MF thread or before? Just wondering, because it seems like a lot of Greekchatters are fans now.

I first heard of Mignon Faget on that "every sorority girl's necessities" thread here on greekchat. I checked it out then and was hooked and had to buy a couple things. I still haven't seen anyone else wearing her stuff around here.

I don't think that everyone is buying jewelry...just that they have certain pieces that are meaningful to them that they feel naked without. It'd be like getting dressed and forgetting to put on a bra (for a girl) and then feeling weird the rest of the day - stupid annalogy but you get the point!

I also think you'll find that it's trendy right now to wear jewelry. Silver is the HOT item right now. And then there's also the whole yellow and white gold thing girls love as well. I think this whole fascination has been around for ages. I mean take a look at the Hollywood actresses who BORROW beautiful diamonds and sport them at award shows. A girl can't help but want to look beautiful!

Mignon Faget is a designer from New Orleans. Her designs are very distinct and stylized. Its very easy to spot a MF piece. Its rarely copied because, while she used to sell some things through Tiffany's, now she's mostly a Louisiana thing. All the girls at LSU have the Tulip necklace (myself included).

I'm hoping for Santa to bring me the Red Bean and Rice bracelet

Tonight my boyfriend and I did our Christmas. I was extremely surprised to find a little blue box inside the other boxes! He got me the Elsa Peretti floating heart! I love it! Its going to go in the rotation of things I never take off

Definitely! For me, if I don't have my watch with me, my day will be a nightmare!! (or so I think)

Most importantly, I almost never go without my emerald cross, which my favorite uncle gave me for my 16th birthday. It was the last and most precious present I ever recieved from him as he drowned 2 months later. Once, the chain broke and I thought I'd lost the cross. It was devastating...like losing him all over again. Thank God, I found it the next day.

Maria, I'm so sorry for your loss . I'm so glad that you found your emerald cross!!

Have a wonderful holidays .

Right now, it's only my silver hoops and silver KA lavalier! But I have a feeling that when my bf gets done playing Santa, I'll have a few more pieces that I can't live without!
