One thing I have learned over the years is that jewelry is a big thing during the holidays. If you are a man you see commercials driving home the point that if you don’t get your special someone some really expensive jewelry you should feel horrible.
I think it’s a ploy to make people spend money they really don’t have. Well that could be said for any gift. The cheapest gifts can set you back a lot of dough. However jewelry seems to glow and enchants the eye. In the end you want to make your mate feel happy. I haven’t fallen for that pressure. My wife has simple tastes which is nice. It’s the thought that counts, right.

Yep, it is just another way to pull you in. Simple is better…in my opinion.

I actually hate jewelry. I don’t like wearing it at all. About a month ago, I even stopped wearing my wedding ring (after talking to my husband about it, of course) and I actually like the feeling of not wearing anything extra. When I need to “dress up” I put on these little stud earrings that I bought a few years ago. Just depends on the person, I guess!
