Do you wear less jewelry in cold weather?

Usually as the weather gets colder I find myself shedding bling as I pile on the layers of clothes.

Most of my pendants seems to get engulfed in the thick sweater fabrics and higher necklines, my bracelets don’t get seen under the long sleeves and are more likely to snag, and some of my rings make putting my gloves on awkward. Also the cold makes my fingers slightly smaller and my rings spin more. And I’m putting on moisturizer and hand lotion throughout the day which makes me not want to wear pave or pearls.

Anyone else find themselves feeling like their bling gets buried in the weight of winter fashions?
 
Absolutely!! Bracelets are a no go for me as soon as the cold begins. I am always cold and pull my sleeves down to my fingers. Necklaces...I only wear if the top allows, but with my 60+ scarves, they are usually left behind. Rings I revel in still because that is all I can see!!
Stay warm!!
 
I wear more jewelry in cold weather. It’s easier to hide it under coats, scarves and gloves in cold weather.

Haha this is me picking out rings in winter: “No...that’ll snag. No that’s too high for gloves. No...too much pave... Ooooo. Plain bands! Yes!”
 
Yes definitely less jewelry. No bangles as you can't see them under all the layers anyway.

Winter is a time for big earrings and rings.

Sadly I don’t have my ears pierced. Luckily I have a lot of rings. Gonna have to start wearing 3 or 4 at a time to avoid blind withdrawal.

I’m finishing up my first pin though so I anticipate being able to wear that daily on my sweater!
 
No
i hate winter clothes
never wear scarfs or gloves
Id say i wear more jewlery in the winter if anything
 
I pretty much stop wearing bracelets because they aren't seen with long sleeves or they snag! Yes to rings but constantly taking them off at home to apply lotion. I still wear earrings and necklaces :kiss2:
 
More, its too hot in summer to pile it on.
 
I switch from “rarely wearing something in my neck” to “never wearing anything in my neck” once scarf season begins. Otherwise, I don’t really reduce bling much in the cold (though I don’t wear very high set rings that catch on the gloves).
 
I see your point about the rings interfering with wearing gloves. However, I'm in California, where winters are mild but summers are hot. I wear more bling in cold weather than hot weather, especially rose gold, because I'm paranoid of having to clean my jewelry after sweating on them. I never have to wear gloves in California, unless at the gas pump because of covid-19.
 
Way more in winter. In summer it’s too hot and sticky to wear much!
 
Probably more rings stacked because my fingers are so much skinnier in the cold.. less bracelets because of long sleeves. Pendants.. eh...depends.. I am also one who doesn't really wear any jewelry at home except for earrings so since covid, I hardly wear anything.. the upside is that everything seems new and has more "wow factor"
 
I am more likely to wear something around my neck when it is cold.

About the same for rings and bracelets.

DK :))
 
What's winter? It is warm all year around (currently 90's this week in So Cal).

Actually, wear the same amount of jewelry year round, but I do find that some of my scarves (worn may 2 months out of the year tops) do snag on my necklace...and I find it annoying.
 
I shed my bracelets but put on my necklaces so it’s a trade-off!
 
I have quit wearing all my jewelry...what's the point, put it on, take it off to wash hands, sanitize, put them back on, take them off...I just gave up.
 
Haha I live in the American north east and walk 25 min to work. Layering is a must for me to not become a popsicle lol.

Jealous of folk who have mild winters! Though I admit I’m enjoying the beautiful fall weather and colors right now.
 
HI:

Absolutely. I lost a valuable 24K bracelet in the snow while fiddling around with my gloves. Now I think twice about earrings (hats) and bracelets (gloves).

cheers--Sharon
 
I wear the same, Spring, Summer, Autumn or winter.
 
Same for me. ER and WB and earrings. That's usually all I wear.
Occasionally a necklace.

This is so true! I forgot about hats. If it is super cold and I am wearing a hat I will leave the dangle earrings off. Thanks Sharon. LOL it's been so long since I wore a hat I forgot. :lol:

This is me too!

My solitaire is set high & is a pain in the bum under gloves, which i NEED in cold weather, but it's been so many years now that I've got used to it. And my favourite leather Mulberry gloves have a little stretched bubble area on my left ring finger where they've had to accommodate :lol:
