Our first Christmas H gave me a lover's embrace necklace.  I wore it on our wedding day

A Celtic knotted bracelet. I don't wear it often but loved it when he gave it to me.

He gave me a pair of blue diamond stud earrings for our first Christmas.  I wear them everyday.

Good question! DH doesn't trust himself picking out jewelry and doesn't do it too often. But for our first (I think?) Christmas, he picked up a fun necklace for me at an American Eagle. I still wear it often! It's one of those goes-with-everything kind of deals.

It was a diamond heart pendant for our first Christmas together. I used to wear it every day, but the bit that attaches the pendant to the chain keeps breaking and I don't want to risk losing it, so I don't wear it anymore.

he bought me a Pandora bracelet and bead for our first Valentines Day together.  HHe still buys me beads for special occasions and I wore the bracelet for our wedding.  I wear it every day!

He was working as a bouncer for the first couple months we were dating.  He found a bracelet one night after the bar closed and gave it to me.  It was a really nice bracelet.  I don't really wear jewelry so he doesn't buy it for me.  Just the rings on my left hand.

I think we had been dating a year, so we were sophomores in high school! I'm not sure if it was a birthday, anniversary, or christmas gift (my birthday is 12/1, anniversary is 12/4), but he gave me a little tanzanite pendant shaped like a snowflake on a silver chain. I don't wear it anymore (actually, I think it's still in my childhood bedroom at my mom's house) because the chain is really long and I don't usually wear necklaces that long. I should get it back from my mom's house though. I wear the 3 stone (past, present, future) diamond necklace that he gave me in college just about every day.

The first piece of jewelry that DH gave me was not real jewelry at all. Shortly after we moved in together, I was getting ready to leave for work in the morning. As I was making my coffee I saw him fiddling with a pipe cleaner. When I got ready to give him a kiss goodbye, he produced a ring that he fashioned out of the pipe cleaner and gave it to me so I could "practice". Though I don't wear it any longer, it sits in my jewelry box and still makes me smile when I see it.

for my birthday (we had been together for 6 months) he gave me a gold necklace with a diamond encrusted heart and earing set) it said Pour mon Ange tout Special (for my very special angel)

 He had bought it when he was 18 (so 10 years earlier) and had kept it all this time to give the the woman he would want to be with forever... he said I was the first woman he ever dated to make him feel the way he did and he could not wait to spend the rest of his life with me...

 He proposed on our 1 year anniversary... (we will be together 3 years on Feb 26th)

For our first Christmas together, we hadn't even been together a month, H got me a gorgeous blue topaz ring. It was a trillion cut (triangle, pretty much) and was set kind of in a floating setting...it was gorgeous. I wore it constantly. We used to talk about finding a trillion cut diamond and replacing the blue topaz and that becoming my engagement ring, but I wore it so much that the shank cracked. We got it fixed, but it cracked elsewhere. I still have it somewhere, just don't wear it!

For my first birthday that we were together, H got me a Tiffany necklace.   I wore it every day until H bought me a bow necklace that I wanted for Christmas this year.  Now, I alternate between the two.

He gave me a Tiffany heart necklace with my initials on it for our first anniversary. Wore it all the time until it needed to be polished, but I never got around to it, and then my initials changed :P
