Does anyone settle on jewellery like me? Where you don’t love something but acknowledge that it has a purpose?
Here is a thread for all the pieces that we’re “so so” about but keep and wear anyway.
I find that the pieces I adore are not necessarily practical or useful with my clothes so I have a stash of “You don’t thrill me but you’ll do” pieces that I actually wear more than my beloved treasures.
I want to see yours too! Or are you all ruthless and would never wear anything that you’re not utterly in love with?
Darker than my expectations Tsav:
Was offered a return on this but ultimately I decided not to and it grew on me. My son and sister have fought much over it (he collects garnets, she calls it forest green and wants one) so it’s not going anywhere.
Despised zircon that is not pink:
This was sold as pink and is not pink. Bought when I was new to CS. One of those weird things where I tried to talk myself into its virtues and grew to despise it. Pink zircon is a lie!!!!!! It is not pink!!! Husband’s favourite ring and he loves this coppery colour. He wanted a car in this colour but couldn’t fit into a Polestar so I wear this ring out with him often. I have a few dresses in this colour too.
Too small padparadscha:
It’s just small. Poor thing is so small. Very useful nevertheless and I love the colour. Just so sad and small. And I think I overdid the halo. But I wear it heaps cuz the bestie loves it and it’s great in summer as the ring on my rummaging hand because it’s sapphire and tough. The husband loves it too because he’s into that whole pink thing.
