There should be one big LOVE button for this whole thread!
I can play because by accident I bought this valentines red ring while visiting my bench to pick up work yesterday.
Oooooh @Jimmianne I LOVE this "accidental" purchase hahaha. And only on PS do we totally get what you mean by buying a piece of bling accidentally.
You go girl! Buy the bling, buy the shoes, eat dessert first. It's our PS motto!

Today I’ll share some of my favorite earlier romantic pieces, as in earlier in our relationship. He bought me the moonstone necklace first, and a few months later the bracelet. I still get that thrill of how excited I was when I look at them.
Oh these took my breath away! Just beautiful!

Ironically, I was also going to post a necklace today!
The sentiment behind this isn't romantic since it was in memory of my dog but it does have a heart-shaped moonstone. This piece was made by Sally at Heart of Water and the sketch was what she drew up from my ideas.
What a beautiful sentiment to honor your dog! Gorgeous!

My romantic piece of the day.
My antique pear earrings from Lang Antiques.
Sorry, selfie earring shots are challenging especially as @bling_dream19 pointed out on earrings that articulate so adding a still shot below. These are one of my favorite pairs though it is hard to choose one favorite.
Those are just luscious!

I should add that DH (the photographer) told me not to embarrass him by posting bad photos on PS!

Day 5....this golden flower pin/pendant. I fell in love with it’s delicacy but it sold. My husband , who also fell in love with it, had been keeping up with the seller and when the sale fell through, he bought it! I guess it was meant to be. It is my favorite brooch and feels very romantic to me.
It’s a very happy piece for me, as it reminds me of super fine, golden grass and blue skies, and the breeze of the Pacific Ocean. I love mixing it with various gem bead nevklaces, layering, etc.

@stracci2000 I love these and I love that your sister gave these to you.
She's a pearl lover. She was upgrading and wanted bigger ones, so I got lucky!

Wow, that’s so awesome! Lucky that you have a sister and such a nice one too. I’ve always wished that I had one.

I can see why this is a happy piece for you. It made me smile. I love this on you. It’s a sunny happy statement necklace.

I would love to know more about your gorgeous heart halo!
Today I’m wearing this rose gold heart band (birthday gift) and 2.5mm woven shared prong for the birth of my son ❤ Lots of love between these two simple bands

I love this thread, it's sentimental, funny, beautiful, lovely etc! the stories are romantic, interesting, heartwarming, heart wrenching.. I have a garnet ring but all my jewelry is in my box at the bank, it was my sister's ring, she wore that ring for 55 years mostly on, she also had a jade engagement ring my niece has.
My grandmother gave me a turquoise ring and my sister a red garnet ring, I loved my turquoise but lost it eons ago, but not my sister she kept hers for her whole life, so when she died I asked my niece if I could have it, and she was joyful to give it to me as it wasn't her type of jewelry style, it's a mite small for me, but as soon as I put it on, I knew, this was MY sister's ring, I had lost my ring decades earlier I thought my sister would be mad and she wanted her daughter to have it.. so I try to convince my niece to take it back, I gave my niece her great grandmother's engagement ring, I thought my grandmother would have been happy had she ever met her great granddaughter and my grandmother would be very proud of me.. I think this and I believe it is true. Here's my grandmother's ring, typical Art Deco, 1 small transitional cut diamond and two synthetic blue sapphires in 18K white gold.. My grandmother loved this ring with her whole being, this I do remember.
she died when I was 13.

Here's two of mine. Folks who frequent the CS forums are probably tired of seeing this a million times. The ruby halo ring is romantic because it's my engagement ring and very apropos to VD colors.
The blue sapphire ring is more subtle. It's a custom design by me. The kite diamonds represent DF giving me wings to fly, and in the gallery of this ring are cat ears under the sapphire halo and fish under the kite diamonds. The cat ears symbolize me, a Leo, and the fish symbolize DF, a Pisces. There's a surprise diamond between the cat ears to symbolize that I'm a princess cat (to him). These are all nicknames we have for each other.
