Don't you just love glancing at your favorite jewelry and knowing that there's a history there? The glint off a bracelet catches your eye when you're in your bedroom, and you know where you got it, where you wore it, and what happened when you wore it. Sometimes wearing a ring that you know you were wearing on a special day is all you need to put it back on and hope for another remarkable day.
Or maybe you just wear it because it's pretty. That certainly works too!
I feel like I'm always going back to the same jewelry because something about it is special to me -- either I can remember where I was when I first got it, or who gave it to me, or what happened when I wore it.
Do you have favorite pieces of jewelry?
Earrings I got in New Mexico on a trip with my two best friends, Jackie and Avra.
Twisty earrings also from New Mexico.
A bracelet that my friend Brittany made for me.
The watch I wore on my trip to Israel.
A simple sterling silver band I wear most days.
I twist it on my finger when I'm nervous. It came in handy during my college graduation.
A shield ring from Forever 21 that I just think is awesome.
A necklace with a tree cut-out, little bird, and green gem from my dad.
A dainty necklace with burgandy, gray and yellow beads from my aunt.
A spinning necklace from Urban Outfitters that says "I Love You."
This is the necklace I wear every single day. I hardly ever take it off.
I've worn the swirling charm since 9th or 10th grade (about eight years!)
and only recently added the "Dream" charm, which is from a co-worker.
