I think vintage floral dresses and t-shirt dresses are perfect sneakers! Anything loose and made of cotton would work. Maybe even casual maxi dresses? Tenkrat's outfit was awesome, and I love Lynne_Ross's roper idea.
IKR?! I need it. A seller just bought an item from me and wants me to overnight it. But, my shipping terms are within 3 days and I’m going to be busy with work today. Plus, they didn’t pay for overnight shipping. Grrrr...send us a 'lucky Seller' juju
Thank you for the compliments on my bracelet and ring!
But, this is 3ct and when I’ve tried on larger ones they look fake on me (kind of Vegas Show girl ish) because I have slim fingers. 
They can get to be more of the showy Vegas girl-y vibe that I don’t do. But, I think some of the sleeker and quieter pieces are cute. You look adorable in your rompers!! That is a fun casual warm weather look.

I would absolutely get a larger diamond for my ring because I’m diamond addicted.
I know what you mean on some tennis bracelets looking dated. But, I think that’s mostly the ones with the S curve between the diamonds that were really popular in the 90’s like these. View attachment 4345237 View attachment 4345238
Although, if someone wants to give me theirs, I’ll happily take it.
What I want is a simple 18k white gold bracelet with 12-14 cts of round diamonds with decent quality (excellent cut, SI1-SI2, G-H color) on prong settings. I know my jeweler back home could do a good job and I may just go back and have him make it assuming he doesn’t have it in stock. I don’t feel the need to look at each individual diamond for a bracelet. So, I do need someone I can trust to make sure I don’t get a few duds in the line up.
I usually only wear one ring on each hand and one bracelet on my left wrist. I haven’t done a lot of stacking (I’ve tried because I like the look but, it feels like a lot going on with my wrist.) And, I’ve never been able to get into the VCA or Cartier bracelets although I know they are very popular. Honestly, something about the Love bracelet being locked onto my arm makes me feel a little claustrophobic which is totally ridiculous. LOL!!
If I did branded jewelry - which I haven’t done since I bought Tiffany pieces many years ago - I would be tempted by the Cartier Panthier or Bulgari serpenti jewelry. Which is weird because they don’t fit my style at all.

K, you continue to be the yin to my yang.never thought the diamonds can look dated
i am not very much into diamonds, and i much more love silver and less noticeable accessories, because i love stacking, and i love many, these silver bracelets are a mix of all: BV, Gucci, unbranded silver chains, lava stones and 'save the dolphins' charity charm.
i don't take them off at all.
i would not be able to wear that much of precious metal and stones on me without looking kitch-y and cheap, and just one fine piece won't make me feel good
i do have a few wg rings, which i wear with my silver, but they don't scream 'GOLD' at all
I would feel so overwhelmed with a stack like that. I just can’t do lots of random stuff on my arms. One bracelet, no watch and I’m good to go! LOL!!! <said in my best Darth Vader voice>Thanks for the compliment.IKR?! I need it. A seller just bought an item from me and wants me to overnight it.

I agree. I’m all about classic styles now. I just don’t want to buy / sell / remount anything. And, I also agree that I need jewelry that doesn’t require me to pamper it like pearls, opals, etc. Plus, I just prefer the look of diamonds. I do love blue sapphires and may get a dia / sapphire ring one day but, we’ll see.
I hated the idea. Then I started reading on the forum about how romantic it was. And, a small part of me thought it would be special if Mr. S and I had coordinating ones - his plain and mine of course with diamonds. Lol! But, I just couldn’t get over the being locked in thing, even though I’ve read they come with a little screwdriver so you aren’t really trapped.
Sigh. He is an LV fan (me not so much) and likes the black grey mono. But, hey, you compromise in a relationship, right? So, I went to the website to look at prices. 
Yesss!
That is very pretty… as in ohmysopretty-faint!We are a bunch of goofballs. LOL! In my family we may actually give each other chocolate teeth.
Those are actually regular Reese’s (not Reese’s pieces) hearts - a lump of yummy peanut butter inside the chocolate Oddly, I hate chocolate but for some reason can tolerate it on Reese’sThe Godiva bag had white chocolate fruit kebabs (I still picked the white choc off and ate the fruit. Lol!) and the Grand Luxe box had a butter cake. Yum! But, now my sugar monster is awake and I gotta go cold turkey this week.
Hahaha! Yep. So glam. They'll surely feature us in Vogue with my sophisticated Hello Kitty PJ’s and Mr. S. in his super sexy grey thermal long undies - snoring on the media room sofa, faces smeared in sticky cookie crumbs.
I put on the bracelet and tried to take pics but, evidently, my iPhone is not set for “jewelry mode”. LOL! Bags it can do so well. Jewelry? It always misses the sparkle and detail. Oh well, here’s the best I can do and you’ll have to work with me to envision its super sparkle.View attachment 4344981It really shines which makes me super happy! (I don’t know if you can tell but, my manicure is super sparkly too Lol!)
You can see that the bracelet is waaaay too big. Probably by at least an inch. I’m sure they can do something with the extra that I’ll love and I’ll share pics of whatever comes. But, it’s fun for every day work / casual / errands so I’m not blingy.
We’ve made good progress on my every day sets. So, I’m going to focus Mr. S on the tennis bracelet upgrade I want for my bday in Sept.
i mean, i would look cheap if i wore as many of them as i do silver, a few on every handK, you continue to be the yin to my yang.
And, diamonds don’t look dated but, settings and styles can.
I had two yellow gold rings that were at least 15 years old. The style of the bands were really chunky mainly because gold was cheaper then so, they looked dated compared to more delicate current styles. Or the Return to Tiffany’s jewelry. It was really in say 15 years ago-ish. Now, it’s not so much. I kept my yg versions because I love them but, they certainly aren’t “hot” items right now. And pear or marquis shaped diamond engagement stones were hugely popular 25 years ago. Then they were totally “out” and now they are coming back in vogue. Antique settings for engagement rings were huge 12ish years ago. Now, they aren’t the craze but, you can’t swing a dead cat without seeing halo rings.
Jewelry is like any other fashion. It comes in, gets run out on a rail, swoops back around and is rediscovered all over again. But, it’s so expensive and it’s so personal that I think people should buy what they love and pretty much ignore a trend change.
P.S. I don’t think you’d look cheap in diamonds. Come on over to the sparkly side.
) 
although i have a few i never take off, i know i CAN take them off any time i want/need.
I've sold one, still have 3 listed.For those of you selling, how is it going?
I don't mind shorts, but I would like some casual dresses…
That is truly the draw for wearing dresses - over the head and bam - you're dressed.
