What is(are) your favorite piece(s) of jewelry?
Mine are my engagement/wedding ring and my earrings similar to these.
Re: What is(are) your favorite piece(s) of jewelry?
My engagement and wedding rings are pretty much the only jewelry I have.
Unless you count my Hello Kitty stuff. LOL.
1. SUPER cute earrings!
2. The answer to your question:
my wedding band and engagement ring (for obvious reasons) and then a vintage, white gold and diamond set "dinner ring" that was originally my great grandmothers. My mom gave it to me the day we picked out my wedding dress. It is really special to me
LOL.
My favorites are obviously my engagement ring / wedding band, and also include really unique and awesome pieces from New York & Company, the Limited, and Kohls.
Aside from my rings and a set of pearls from my grandmother that I love but rarely have occasion to wear, I don't own any nice jewelry.
There is the obvious love for my engagement ring and wedding band.
But, I also have a necklace with three different pendants or charms (whatever you call them) each is a circle with a P, E, and A. For my husband, son and daughter.
Besides the basics (watch, wedding rings, diamond and pearl studs, Tiffany diamond pendant H gave me on our wedding day), my wear-all-the-time favorites are my Banana Republic gold double hoop earrings:
and my Waxing Poetic charm necklace. I have my initial and my girls' birthstones, like these:
Yes. I have something similar with my kids. And it means the world to me.
My favorite pieces are really the only ones I wear daily: my wedding set and this ring that my great-aunt gave me to me shortly before she passed last fall. The center stone was her engagement stone and the others are small chip diamonds from years of service gifts my great-uncle got from working at DuPont. He passed away years ago so having this is like having a piece of both of them and it means the world to me:

I love my pandora bracelet
my wedding ring
a blue aquamarine heart ring that my mom gave me for my 16th bday (she received for her 16th bday )
Obviously my E-ring and wedding band.
But my next favorite piece is this:
This is the diamond that MH proposed to me with years ago. I got an upgrade before the wedding, but couldn't let my baby diamond go. I had it made into a pendant.

Other than my wedding rings, a Cartier bracelet that dh gave me after I had dd. Also, a jade and diamond ring my grandmother gave me recently.
Oh, and a nameplate with my daughter's name written in Greek.
I wear a silver bracelet by Lagos and a strand of pearls every day. I have a thing for pearls and right now my favorite not everyday piece is a replica of this necklace for Tiffany by Paloma Picasso.

I have a great polished quartz necklace from BR that everyone stops to ask about each time I wear it.
I also have a squarish gold ring H bought me when we'd been dating about 3 years that I have worn on my right hand since.
Most days I wear a set of gold ball studs too.
the jewelry i wear daily is my favorite. all of it!
rings:ering and band, a small peridot semi-infinity band (C's birthstone), my college ring, and my grandmother's wedding band.
i wear a silver chain with two pendants on it - one is a circle monogram, the other is a 3d star that was designed and rendered by a friend and made from my grandfather's wedding band.
honorable mentions: my earrings, which are small silver monogrammed discs and a tiffany's bracelet (also monogrammed...perhaps there's a theme?!) that H gave me a month or so before he proposed. since it's my married monogram, i call it my "letter of intent".
Aside from my engagement/wedding ring set, my favorite piece of jewelry is my key necklace, which H got me for Valentine's Day. It matches my rings, and the key design is significant to our relationship. He thinks he is a terrible gift giver, but I thought it was perfect, and I wear it every day.
