Sort of a spin off inspired by Haven's post in the lifestyle thread.
Do you look/dress like someone who likes/wears diamonds and fine jewelry?
I don't think I do. I have a lot of tattoos, some of which are very visible. The one on my top left forearm is a pretty good size. I have piercings. If it were sunny all the time (like if I were home in San Diego) I'd wear flip flops. My dress is casual. I wear what's comfortable. With three young kids I don't have much time to dress up. No designer duds for me. I like Target and Old Navy. Sometimes shop at Lane Bryant and Avenue. Both DH and I drive Chevys.
I currently live in an upscale neighborhood in Atlanta. It's not uncommon to see large carat stones in my area. Everyone that I see wearing these large beauties also dress/look the part, so to speak. They drive nice vehicles and wear nice things. Hair all done up with makeup on. Can't remember the last time I wore makeup. I wear my hair in a bun or ponytail 95% of the time (and I spend a small fortune on hair products). I'm not really a girly girl.
In my circle of friends I'm the only one interested in non-maul diamonds and fine jewelry. I'm a diamond snob. I often hide my ring because it seems too flashy. No doubt most question if it's real or not.
So, do you fit the look/stereotype of someone that likes nice/quality diamonds and jewelry?
