Totally worth it
Theo Fennell silver jewellery
I already a couple of 'modest' pieces of TF fine jewellery, while 'browsing' LOL, I looked closer and tried on some silver pieces and bought 3 without even doing my usual due care and consideration routine.
Made with the same care and attention as his fine jewellery, amazing stuff, I am such a fan

It's been two years since I replied to this thread.
Worth it - White gold pendants, silver cameo pendant, Tissot watch
Not worth it - all the costume pieces I have purchased or the silver jewellery I have bought on impulse.
On the fence - all my hand made pieces as I now have hundreds of them. I could have bought the white gold bracelet by now.
Like another tpf member mentioned, she feels her style has evolved as she gets older. That's the way I feel now. I am more into classic pieces than "fashion type" jewellery set in silver or plated metals.
Worth it: wedding set, pandora bracelet from my hubby, my monogram silver necklace (adore it!) fun costume jewelry -makes any outfit dressy/cute
Not worth it: not many regrets since I'm not a huge jewelry person but I do regret spending a lot of money on earrings/rings from kays it's wayyyyy overpriced for low quality jewelry

fun thread!
worth it: my diamond wedding set, mikimotos, tahitian pearl set, tiffany atlast ring in WG with diamonds, almost all the gold jewelry w/ or w/o diamonds, watches (rolex, cartier, michele)
not worth it: a few trendy gold pieces, costume jewelry, swarovski, expansive clothes (especially, my ungaro dress over $2000 which i wore just once), purses (especially Chanel and LV ones-- I just do not use them) and shoes (my shoes from chanel, jimmy choo, gucci, tod's, etc. are sleeping in the closet. These days I just wear cheap sneakers).
on the fence: gucci watches, as i grow older, i just do not wear gucci watches any longer. but i've worn those watches for more than 10 years, so maybe worth it
In this thread, many seem to be against Tiffany silver jewelry. Am very glad I read this thread since I almost bought a pair of earrings in silver from Tiffany; this thread made me rethink about those earrings
. I will save the money for the B zero 1 ring.

As I grow older my tastes and income level will change things, but right now-

Worth it: Hermès 18 k gold mini chaîne d'ancre necklace and bracelet which has earned me many compliments, my small collection of Hermès leather and enamel bracelets some of which I wear with joy every day, wedding ring, cartier mini trinity bracelet (hope to be able to acquire more cartier in time), small but good quality diamond ear studs. Although not a piece of jewellery, I also love my one Chanel bag, a black lambskin WOC which I use on vacation trips and when going out to nice restaurants in my own town.
Not worth it: several of my non branded 18 k gold pieces (such as nondescript bracelets and chain necklaces) that I don't really use but can't sell b/c they are gifts, some of my Mulberry bags that I don't use despite their being great quality, my silver items (I don't look good in silver), all my costume and high street "jewellery" that have lost their lustre and are not worth their price despite being cheap...
