Jewelry: What's Your Flavor?




Let's talk jewelry!











Some people love diamonds
or pearls.
or turquoise.
or gemstones.
Some love the simplicity  
of gold, silver, or platinum.








 



There are so many
"flavors"
to choose from!




And then there is
is
TORTOISESHELL.

Fun. Everyday. Classic Casual.






Delicious!
This is MY flavor
of choice.
(and pearls too)













What's your favorite flavor?

Ok I could go with any of your choices ...the tortoise is very interesting, if not endangered. Love the ring...the gold with tortoise

Love it all! That tortoise is fabulous, the monogrammed cuff a keeper, anything with emeralds and diamonds I won't turn my nose at..lol. Love coral and turquoise in the summer espeically against white clothes. I prefer gold over silver, there.....I think I know what I love!

Diamonds, all the way!!! My mother had some great ones, so I'm a fortunate daughter to get to wear them now. Sally

Well, since you asked. Love my diamond wedding ring which after 3 re-designs is finally perfect. Not a fan of pearls. Love colored stones, especially amethyst--my birthstone. Oh, and just discovering tortoise. It's catching my eye!

Alison Now I too am seeing how much I love tortoiseshell! I tend toward simpler designs; however love both gold and pearls, and some silver.

Hi! Alison,

Love all your jewelry images.

I must say that I don't wear alot of bling. However, do wear on special occasions some classic pieces. Cultured pearls are always lovely to wear & I do love antique/vintage pieces of jewelry such as Cameos & Brooches.

Thanks! for sharing. Have a great weekend.

Blessings & Hugs,
Marlene

Wow Alison, I can't believe that your home was not featured before, it is so uniquely beautiful. So happy for you and can't wait to see it in Midwest Living. Love, Penny

I'm definitely a tortoise girl, but love simple gold too. Mix the two, and I'm really happy. Pearls and diamonds in moderation for me, but I definitely like to wear them. Great post, Alison! FYI Horse and Hound is showing fab cuffs in tortoise and gold. Check it out........Sarah
