I'm not that into jewelry these days. At work, I wear my gold wedding band, silver watch, and fake pearl earrings. After work and weekends, just the wedding band.

I wear earrings and a watch. Since I'm retired I don't wear as much jewelry as I used to since I don't leave the house every day. I wear gold or silver depending on the color of the outfit.

I wear the same jewelry all the time; the only items that change are earrings and I don't care what they're made of. I'm wearing 4 gold rings, a gold bracelet, a gold-tone watch, and a silver necklace and pendant.

I don't usually wear jewelery (not even ear rings), but when I do I stick to silver/white gold colored pieces. I'm not a huge fan of yellow gold.

I wear silver, white gold, or stainless steel, depending on what it is. I wear stainless barbells in my eyebrow and tongue piercings, and white gold or stainless in my nostril piercings. I got a white gold nostril screw with a tiny heart shaped ruby for Valentine's/25th anniversary. It is beautiful, I just love it.
I usually wear 2 pairs of stainless rings in my ears, but sometimes I wear some that are silver with gemstones.
I wear anywhere between 1 and 12 rings, all silver, some with stones. I also have a silver handmade slave bracelet that I have had for 20 years that I wear sometimes.
I always wear a pendant or a locket. My favorite pendant changes periodically, but always have some gemstone, lately a rutilated quarts and topaz. The locket is silver engraved on one side, and inlaid ivory and onyx on the other, in the shape of a yin and yang symbol. Of course it has pics of DH in it. He gave it to me the first time we had to be apart for a little while when he went ahead to a new city to start an new job.
Almost all of my jewelry marks an occasion, anniversary, or was given to me by someone I love. Sometimes I just like to go through my jewelry box and remember where it all came from. I have collected it for so long it is like a timeline of my life.

I wear all of the above on a regular basis, and on special occasions, will wear whatever fits best.

Everyday, I wear three rings- my wedding (gold), my engagement (silver or white gold, not sure :lol3), and a cheapie plain silver band I LOVE.

I often add a necklace to it, whatever at the time- at the moment it's gold. Sometimes a bracelet or a different ring. I'm pretty simple over all!
