This is a weird one, I'll admidt it. Do you ever feel like you have too much jewelry? Between the good stuff, the fun stuff, the trendy stuff, the inherited pieces...I just feel like they're are pieces I really like yet I never get the chance to wear them. Sometimes I feel like I'll buy a piece justt cuz I like to look at it. Am I all alone?

I used to have a lot of pieces that I bought when I was younger (15-22ish) but I have sold a lot of them on kijiji and rid myself of lower quality jewellery. now I have pieces that I wear a lot or that are special to me; and I am now saving to invest in long term quality pieces of jewellery :D

Yes, I know what you mean, I do have pieces that I still haven't gotten a chance to wear so I just admire them in the box. I don't like the attention at work, amongst family or friends because most ladies I know personally don't have half of the jewelry I have and when asked, I feel a little weird so I try to be low key and mostly wear my nice jewelry only when I go out with my husband alone.

I like to wear all my jewellery, some bigger pieces for occassions but wear earrings, pendant, rings, watch, bracelet daily.

My mother gave me the best advice, don't buy costume jewellery, buy jewellery which lasts and wear them as often as possible.

Answering jujuma's question, I don't think I have too much jewellery! I could do with more! ;)

Nope, maybe because if I get tired of pieces I take them to the jeweler for a trade, so I'm never bored, and it helps keeping me clear of hoarding jewels.

never lol! i have about 50 pieces ranging in value from my wedding rings and a diamond pendant down to stella and dot costime pieces and everything in between (ie tiffany, yurman and pandora)

i try to mix high and low everyday (ie diamond studs with a costume statement necklace) and try not to wear the same pieces 2 days in a row. i love mixing up different combinations! if i find myself in a rut i reorg my jewle case so different things will be near the top.

I wish I were so lucky to own so many pieces. My depot is rather small.
