How many jewelry pieces are "too much"?

Looks great, I like to wear a lot of jewelry too. I usually only do 1 larger piece out of necklace/earrings (like large earrings/small or no necklace, small earrings if larger necklace) which you are doing too with larger pearl necklace/stud earrings. Your bracelets are small individual pieces so perfect for stacking!

When I bought my first Cartier (reg love), I knew I wanted a second bracelet so that I can play "when some days I feel like stacking or the event calls for. And that I'll just wear one most of the days".
But I haven't stopped buying since. Lol. It even spreads to rings. And I'm for now never in one-bracelet-only anymore.

My stack is not a lot compared to OP or most of your beautiful wrists here. but I'd say I'm happy and it's a fun process. I like to buy things that I do wear, not keep (partly the reason why I stop buying bags. I rather buy wrist candies that I can wear even when WFH. Ya know, covid going on. I like to see gold and diamonds on my arms 24/7 and when I'm working on the laptop. But I'd surely look silly carrying a Chanel/Hermes bag around non stop when home). I'll stop buying somewhere, someday, eventually.

what I'd say is so long it makes you happy; life is too short.

I love my jewellery, I think I sometimes overdo it , on a normal day I Wear 2 rings , 3 bracelets and a necklace . I down sized to one necklace from 3
 
Whatever and however much a person wears, it always looks right if they are comfortable in it, and loving themselves in it. If they just own it and be bold and be themselves, then they are wearing the jewelry and not the jewelry wearing them. It enhances their character rather than detract from it.

For myself, I've been pondering that same question. For me, comfort is number one. If it's comfortable on, there is a high chance it will stay on. So I'm still figuring out what is the right amount/mix for me.
 
In this day of "anything goes" - how many jewelry pieces are too much?

For example:
triple strand pearl necklace
diamond studs
wedding/e-ring
tennis bracelet w/ watch - left wrist
right hand ring
right wrist stack (5 bracelets: alhambra clover, 2 hermes WG bracelets, tennis bracelet, small pearl bracelet)

too much?
I think that’s totally fine! Jewelry is meant to be worn and enjoyed.
 
ok took a lot to get a pic, cause it’s just me now. please remember your mother’s teaching…..if you have nothing nice to say, say nothing. I only say this based on the comments already made. I can handle constructive criticism, not cut downs (and if you don’t know the difference- don’t post cause it’s a cut down;) )

Do you have a close up of your right hand ring?? It looks gorgeous!
As to your question, the stacking is not too much to me. I am a serial stacker myself. Most days I wear 3 loves, 3 diamond bangles and a perlee clover on the same arm and then add stacking rings to my fingers. I personally am not a fan of pearls mixed with metal. When I wear my pearls I layer a bunch of Pearl bracelets and necklaces but loose the metal jewellery.
