While I wear them primarily for myself, I also wear them because my husband loves them too! We BOTH love them! We BOTH get mesmerized by their sparkle!

So I 100% agree with many of the posts above, but also add that my DH enjoys seeing them on me, talking about them with me, planning a future set, etc. Its a fun hobby we can enjoy together.

At our house, when I put on my jewelry, we call it getting "ensparkled." For example, my DH knows that each morning I need a little time to get "ensparkled" before I feel ready to take on the day. Or if I've had a day where I wasn't able to put on my bling, he knows I need a few minutes before we sit down to dinner to get "ensparkled."

I think we should add sharing the love of sparkly with or DHs to the poll too. He swoons when he sees me wearing a piece of bling that we've planned for and purchased together. They are joint projects! I love them and would do them on my own, but its so much more fun "blinging" together.

Some photos illustrating why I feel the way I do.

in the car where I love her the least she’s still gorgeous imo.

Even in the dark she glows.

and outdoors the colors emanate seemingly from within ❤

You are so lucky to have a DH who shares in your love of bling!

I chose For me alone, and have always loved and worn diamonds. But this one shows the world that I found the love I though I never would. The meaning behind it makes it beyond special to me. <3

P. S. I finally get a decent pic of my ring, only to realize it's filthy! :lol: :lol:

My Mother is hugely responsible for my love of diamonds. She loves diamonds. She started me on diamonds’ shopping since I was 8. She didn’t always buy but she’s always on the look for that perfect diamonds. Thus we went on a daily basis at least an hour of looking. Diamonds’ vendors adore her even today. They brought in their diamonds to show her.

She loves Hulk. This diamond I got from Alex Parks on IG.

I wear diamonds for me, because I find them beautiful, and for most of my pieces they hold a sentimental value of some kind.

To have something pretty to look at in boring meetings, and in traffic.

I enjoy looking at them. The sparkle, the weight and feel on my skin, brings me joy.

I think for me it comes down to 3 reasons (for wearing jewelry in general):
1. Wearing art
2. Feeling feminine
3. SPARKLE

My husband has commented before that my interest in art and jewelry continues to surprise him because I'm very/overly practical and it seems counter intuitive.
