Jewelry

I don't know about you ladies, but I love jewelry!  I keep an eye out for new pieces of jewelry I want so I thought I would start a fun post.  If there is a piece of jewelry that you want your husband to buy for you please PIP and tell us what store it is from.  This is what I really, really want:

It is the open heart necklace from Kays.  I love the whole collection!  It is gorgeous!

Your turn!  What pieces of jewelry do you really want and where is it from?

Re: Jewelry

  • Jason isn't a jewelry buyer, other than my engagement ring and wedding band, he's never given me a piece of jewelry.  So over the last 7 years (well 7 years in 2 weeks) I've gotten used to not even bothering to look lol, but one day, I would LOVE a diamond tennis bracelet. 

    Just something simple like this.

  • I told Steve that I would like some nice diamond stud earings, something like these from Zales, 3/4 ct.

    And while I was looking for those, I came across this... and I think I would rather have these than the regular studs, they are from the Shared Hearts Collection

  • I'm not really a "keepsake" jewelry wearer, more into  "costume"/fashion.

    But my fav classic piece (besides my e/w-rings), are these Tiffany earrings:

  • Oh how I wish I could wear earrings!  I have tried three times getting my ears pierced and all three times they got infected and closed up.  Not good experiences.

    On a side note:  I am so glad I proof read what I just wrote because I said I had pierced my eyes...that would be kind of painful! LOL

  • I am not a big jewelry wearer.  So the only jewelry I want Matt to buy for me is a bigger center stone for my ring.  Don't get me wrong, I like the one I have.  But when I told him I wanted at least a carat I forgot to mention that I meant center stone weight not overall weight.  So the poor guy thought he was exceeding my expectations when he got me a 1.8 carat ring...but 1 carat of that are the side stones. So one day I would like a bigger stone.  That won't happen for another 10 years or so though.

    I am hoping in about 5 years we are able to get a bigger ring :o)  My husband wanted to get this gorgeous e-ring that was a little out of our budget at the time so I told him to get me a smaller ring and that we could get the bigger ring he really wanted to get me for an anniversary a few years down the road.

    The same thing happened to me, and then I discovered that I can only 14k gold, sterling silver(sometimes), or platinum. Titanium has worked so far for my tregasus piercing. I absolutely cannot wear surgical steel - which is what most places pierce with.

    My lobes were pierced 3 times and would never heal, so finally my aunt (who is a registered nurse) pierced them with a needle and I put in some 14k diamond studs and the healed in about 3 months.

    I might have to look into that.  Thanks for sharing Megan!

  • I am a jewelry wh0re! I just got diamond studs in Jamaica for my birthday and valentines day and probably christmas. LOL. I love fashion jewelry and have a ton of it!! So instead of jewelry I want this:

     Mirrored Front Armoire

    An armoire to hold my jewelry.  

    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • Jewelry armoires=best invention ever. I got one on clearance w/ my employee discount...quite a few years ago from JC Penney for $30. Wow!

     

    I also am the jewelry queen. I worked in fine & fashion jewelry for a long time during college @ JCP & Kohl's. Now, I sell Lia Sophia & it feeds the addiction even more.

     

    I want some small, diamond stud earrings to wear all the time in my 1st ear piercings 24/7. 1/4 or 1/5 ctw is all. I already have & wear 1/8 & 1/10's in my next earring piercings.

     

    DH got me this open hearts necklace for Christmas:

    & I love it too. It's the only jewelry he's bought for me besides my e-ring. Christmas is our engageaversary. We just had our 1st one.
