Yes I have multiple diamond pendent necklaces, a small tear drop, a circle, a heart, a cross, a horseshoe, and a solitare. The only one I ever wear is the cross, the others are lovely but just dont suit me. Now I wish that either I had not bought them or that I had told the person who gave them to me a thanks but no thanks. I really only wear two necklaces a locket my SO gave me and my tiffany cross, if I dont have one of those one I am wearing pearls. I am consistent I dont really switch things up that much. I am wanting a larger solitaire necklace but I am torn beucase I am not sure I would ever wear it.

i regret buying my 1ctw ebay 10 stone ring because i rarely wear it, it's just too insignificant on my finger...but it was something like $250 so it's not like i can really 'regret' it....it's a fun ring so it's what it was worth i guess. but i have already worn my circle pendant as many times in 2 weeks as i have worn the 10 stone in 1.5 years.

also i have a diamond horseshoe pendant which i never wear, it was such a fad, i'm going to give it to my 22 year old sister so she can have some real diamonds to wear for fun.

i tend to like alot of things but i try to sit on it for a long while to see how badly i really want it. i try not to impulse purchase on jewelry because it can be a costly impulse....

I agree Michelle, if I wasn't so impulsive with other purchases, I would have been able to get a whole other ring set like the ones I have now! In the past, I was very impulsive with things like clothes and I had tons in the closet that I never wore. Now I have finally wised up in the last few years and only bought things I wear all the time and/or think about things for a week or two before I buy them. Then if I am still thinking about it, I will get it.

Except now I am obsessed with furnishing our house, so clothes and other things fall by the wayside in the midst of this obsession! I definitely go in waves. But I am still employing the less-impulsive thing with the house stuff, to a level, because I can't think about it TOO much or else I won't ever buy anything. This is why our house still needs alot of work in terms of home decor because I am very indecisive!

But I did just buy a few hundred in summer clothes on shopbop.com for our trip to Florida at end of August...MUST HAVES of course. It helps that 1/3 of the stuff was on sale.

we're going to Fort Meyers Beach/Santabelle Island for Greg's step-grandfather's 80th bday bash...it's a big family affair. Should be a fun short getaway!

re: house decorating, I do most of it on my own and only consult Greg for the bigger items, he doesn't care anyway and likes whatever I get 99.9% of the time!

I went up to SF with a friend yesterday to this design studio that does staging of homes and they are selling alot of their furniture and goodies, got some AMAZING deals on 4 pieces of art (2 for the kitchen and 2 for our downstairs stairway entry to the main entry) and possibly a leather storage ottoman for the foot of our master bed, it comes back from a staged house next week. My girlfriend just moved into her newly purchased townhouse last week and she was in decorating mode so she bought a whole bedroom set (bed, 2 nightstands, dresser) a micro-suede couch, chair and a half and ottoman, a lamp and a few other goodies for about $3k. And this stuff is pretty nice too, like high Crate and Barrel kind of quality. I wish I needed more things, the bedroom sets were very nice, dark espresso which I love. Maybe if I redo the guest room.

She has sales every few weeks when the houses are done selling so we are going to keep our eye out. We want to get a chair and a half and ottoman for our downstairs living room; a huge entertainment center/armoire set (C&B has one I like); and last but definitely not LEAST a whole new dining set and buffet of some sort, problem is that our dining room here is somewhat small, about 10x10 and if we are going to invest in a dining set that we want long-term, I want it to seat 12. But I don't know how we'd ever seat 12 here in this dining room. So I may settle for 10. But then what about when we move at some point ~5 years and have the room for 12? I don't want to spend $4k on a dining set and have it come up 'short'. So that's my current trauma.
