I tend to use jewelry as my source of color in my outfits. I am a pretty plain dresser, wearing a lot of black, but bring in color with jewelry and scarves.
I have the one ring I wear constantly, my wedding ring, which is a cornflower blue, oval cut 4c saphire with white saphire trillions set in an antique white gold setting.
On my other hand, I am currently wearing a oval cut green zircon set in rose gold - it's simple estate piece from the early 50's. If I don't wear that, I wear my marquis cut ruby surrounded by diamond baquettes and rounds set in gold. (I have gold personality disorder!)
What else I typically wear are one of the pair of earrings I pick up in Paris. I'm up to 9 different pair. These are all sparkley, high-quality rhinestones in various colors and lengths. I just choose the one that works with my outfit or - more often - the scarf I am wearing.
Watches are from my small collection of Disney watches. I have about 7 or 8 to choose from, or, if I want to be swanky, I wear my silver, marcasite Boma watch.
Necklaces and bracelets come and go. I just recieved 2 absolutely lovely bracelets for Christmas that work wonderfully with my favorite earrings. I've been wearing them a lot - when I actually get dressed in real clothes.
