Show off your favorite bling! Ring, necklace, bracelet, or earrings. Simple or ostentatious. Something you have or something you want. Let's see 'um!


Mine is the sapphire ring I always wanted. I love all things sapphire.

    @fitlady21 , that ring is everything *wipes drool*

    Agree my wedding set is my favorite bling. Besides that I wear a lot of costume jewelry.

    I can't post pics from my phone. Grrrr

    Nope. Just an educated consumer. I wish I had looked more. I love my ring but we could have gotten better quality for what we (ok, he!) paid.

    Dude!!! Such beautiful rings.... Mine is the same thing. Wedding and engagement ring. However I absolutely LOVE my Rolex and my gold pendant. Both of which I bought after egg donations :) They have sentimental value to be because they remind me of what I did. Plus my Rolex is vintage! I attached a picture :)

    Edit: won't let me add more than one picture??

    @fitlady21@-) And I agree with @yogahh. I went to many, many stores and couldn't find anywhere with a sapphire that wasn't either lab created or didn't look black. DH ended up picking one out online without me. He has good taste. ;)

    @Lulucooks I love that! It has a vintage feel to it. So cool.

    ETA those semicolons are not showing up in my edit/html box.

    My wedding and engagement ring are about all the bling I own, the rest is all costume jewelry.  I loved my ring when I picked it out, but I kind of wish now I had picked something different. I would love a nice pair of earrings, but my ears are really sensitive and I am afraid to spend the money and not be able to wear them. 
    *ETA ignore the paint on my finger, I was painting earlier and missed a spot.

    While I love my engagement ring, I adore my wedding band. It was DH grandmothers wedding ring. It represent 48 years of marriage. Between that and my Great Grandmothers pearls they are some of my most prized possessions!

    I am a huge fan of accessorizing with earrings and necklaces. I have many favs, but especially like my rose gold bar studs and these earrings that were made from bicycle intertubes.

    Also my wedding and engagement ring. Simple, classic, elegant, beautiful. DH picked out my engagement ring himself and he nailed it!

    @hunnybunny17. That's what he was going for, I love vintage jewelry! I would have totally been happy with a nice estate piece, but he was having none of that. So he found a company that allows you to customize your gem's and their placement. He even ordered about a 100 bucks of loose gems from ebay to see color variations so he knew what shades would go together the best.

    Still cant upload pics on my phone and not sure how to fix it, so dragged my butt off the couch to the computer.

    Here is my E-ring by itself the day we got engaged and my ring set. I have also added a "sapphire and diamond" berricle ring to the mix but don't have a pic and my rings are in another room.

    I love my wedding bands and engagement ring. Also, DH got me my cross ring for our first wedding anniversary which is the same setting as my wedding bands. The first picture is a little blurry but it will do ;)

    I'm late to the party, but I LOVE seeing these beautiful rings and things!!!

    The ring on my pinky was my Grandma's (she's handing them out before she passes so there is no arguing). She had it made out of the diamonds from my Grandpa's wedding ring after he left her. =))

    My wedding/engagement rings speak for themselves! We didn't have our rings when we eloped, so we went together and I got my dream ring!

    And the watch...I love my Movado! I bought it for luck for a promotion...And it worked!

    This is my wedding band that I got on our first anniversary. I wanted a ring that wouldn't cut up medical gloves, and that I could wear at work. I still don't wear it at work though....too scared!

    @winchestertopittsburgh I'm drooling over your ring.  I love sapphires!!  I wanted a sapphire ring but it was really important to DH that I have his great-grandmother's diamond, so he bought me a sapphire engagement and wedding band set for the diamond   :x

    This is fun.  We're just married and have moved.  Decorating a new apt. has forced us to reign in our spending.  I will now appreciate the bling that I have rather than having a wish list for more bling.  My e-ring & wedding shoes are my blingiest items.  I bought a classic black quilted Chanel purse in Paris last summer, which was my last big ticket item before making a vow to stop spending frivolous $ on myself!

    Y'all have some gorgeous sparkles!

    There's some beautiful bling in this thread!

    @Winchestertopittsburgh I absolutely love your engagement ring!

    Here are mine: DH picked out my engagement ring all by himself, and he did a great job. I love yellow gold, and I love how simple it is. This is pretty much the only bling I own. (Unless you count the $5 pearls I'm currently wearing, which I don't lol)

    Beautiful bling, ladies! My DH picked out my engagement ring without my input and it's totally me. I had input on the band, which I also adore. You can't see from the picture, but the stones in my band are set kind of like stairs when you look at it from the side, instead of the typical channel set. I love that detail!

    Thanks for the compliments ladies!! DH knew I wanted something a little more untraditional and he did an amazing job.

    I adore these types of GTKY threads, really brightens up my day and gets our minds off of TTC for just a little while :)

    H bought my engagement ring as a solitaire, so I took that diamond and put it in a new band and then we had a plain band for the wedding.

    Gorgeous rings everyone! Here's mine. DH just got me the center stone and I got to go back after he proposed and pick out the setting and wedding band. They didn't come together, but I love how it looks. Trying to convince him I need a matching band for the other side. ;)

    Yay! Everyone's bling is gorgeous!!! I love all the stories. I am torn between my "wedding set" which is my engagement ring/band and the bracelet DH got me to wear the day of our wedding and the necklace DH bought me for our first anniversary. Confession when DH bought me the necklace I HATED it. I hated the shape of the heart but I couldn't bear to tell him so I just put it on and to this day 6 years later I have worn it every single day of my life (except maybe days when I'm doing yardwork/somewhere it would get ruined possibly). I get so many compliments on it and it's uniqueness. I love it now and the shape of it. It's truly beautiful.

    I love seeing everyone's bling so fun! I love my DH and I's rings! The middle stone of my ring was my DH's great grandmothers originally from the early 1900's and we used the gold from the band of her ring to melt down and create my hubby's ring!
