I miss the timex watches too. I had the kind with different color bands…
@greenandchic ... Hey 'stud (earring) girls' rule... My daughter and I wouldn't be without them.
I don't blame you one bit about the larger earrings because if they're too heavy, they will stretch. I learned the hard way long ago.
I also wear the small hoop style earrings; and the kind of earrings that have the safety back (it's like a lever). I like the way both of these styles have a one step closure.
Here's to more Happy Anniversaries and God's Blessings upon you and many, more gemstones to celebrate the love that surrounds you.
Awww, the same to you! Your wedding photos are beautiful by the way!
O' My Goodness, you're so precious, @greenandchic
The wedding photo in my siggy are of another couple who have inspired so many Christians. When you have a moment, click on the link. They chose to put God first by praying before the ceremony.
I did click on the link - sorry I though those were your photos, LOL!
My DH and I prayed before our ceremony, it was part of the actual ceremony...
I own jewelry and wear it sometimes. I have been busy since my parents were ill and haven't had it on very often.
I have not been at my home and have been at my mother's a lot. I will wear jewelry if I remember. I enjoy makeup. I have been wearing a wig and look better in it with some foundation a little blush and some lipstick. I feel pretty wearing a little. It provides a finish.
Thanks @Choclatcotton ...
Does it have a backlight?
I miss those 'Indiglow' watches that I used to have. I haven't been able to find them.

Shimmie,@InVue.... Thanks for joining in. Now, I have a Timex Sista.... "YOU"
I used get the 'gift box' set which had the different colored 'rings' that you could put on the front of the watch. I used to change up to match what I wore each day. I need to 'google' Timex and find out if they still exist.
I haven't worn a watch since....
@Shimmie,
I bought and wear a Timex watch with the indiglo feature everyday.
I purchased it from Target b/c I needed something durable for work that I would not be upset if something happened to it (lost, damaged, etc).
Now, yes I wear jewelry. Often and of all sorts. It expresses my mood, personality, and individual style IMO. Some real pieces, some costume. I think it is always situation/wardrobe appropriate though.
My daily jewelry includes my trusty Timex, a bracelet (Inscribed with Prov 31) to remind of what I'm striving for (sigh), and multi colored but simple hoop earrings purchased from Charming Charlie. All b/c of my work environment. It is not practical or wise for me to wear nicer pieces on the job. I'm pretty laid back for the most part but when I want to dress up I dress up...
My husband bought me a really nice jewelry box from Pottery Barn last Christmas. It also comes with a small travel case. That is where I keep all my jewelry.
I'm curious as to how everyone cleans their jewelry. A jeweler told me years ago to use hot water and a little bit of ammonia. That is the only thing I use to clean my diamond studs and wedding rings. It works really well.
@felic1...
Your parents have a 'fine jewel', a rare and precious gem...
It's 'You', Precious One. It's you. Precious Felic1, it's you.
Such a jewel you are, l who leaves all of her life behind to care for them, to love them, to nurture them. Beyond all jewelry and makeup, that's your true and precious beauty.
God bless you and I am praying for you and your parents, that they have 'long life' and are healed in Jesus' Name... Amen.
@Shimmie...This is a very sweet statement. I have had a great time with my parents. I ministered the sinners prayer to my father and he went to be with the Lord in 11/2013. It was an awesome experience. I never dreamed that my Dad would go and I could be jubilant. My mother did not have a good experience in the nursing home. I brought her home and we are pursuing a nursing agency to care for her in her home. I am really enjoying her and she us. She went in the hospital for a minute and will be home tomorrow! Be blessed!

I wear bracelets, a couple of rings and I want a Gold ring for my thumb like nobody's business.
@Shimmie. I found these Timex Indiglo watches on Amazon. Perhaps, they will be of some interest to you. http://www.amazon.com/s/?ie=UTF8&ke...vptwo=&hvqmt=b&hvdev=c&ref=pd_sl_2dool96id6_b
@Shimmie I apologize for the late reply.
I did too. They were pretty watches to me. I didn't know they still exist until reading Prudent's post.
Thanks for the kind words and a great big hug back to you and the forum.
I like jewelry/accessories...I just love pretty things in general really . I enjoy putting accessories together with my outfit when I am going out. They add 'charm'.
I keep it simple day to day. For eg. Work and church is pearl earrings, brooch and sometimes a charm bracelet.
Yes. It ranges from simple and dainty to extreme gaudy jewelry. It really depends on the outfit and my mood.
Yes, I love jewelry
