The everyday accessories — the necklaces, bracelets, shoes, rings, purses, hair pins, glasses, hats or what have you — that you wear on the daily.
My shoes and purse situations are ever-changing, and to a large degree it depends on what I’m doing on any given day, but for jewelry, there are a few particular pieces I wear all the time.
Those are my wedding and engagement rings, a pair of square gumdrop studs by Kate Spade (Only $38! I love the heck out of these.) and the Kate Spade One in a Million Initial Pendant Necklace in the pic at the top.
There’s also an Anne Klein watch that my brother and his sweetheart got me for my last birthday that sees a lot of action…
All together, these are the things that regularly satisfy my bling monster. 🙂
How about you? What are your favorite everyday accessories?
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

P.S. Of course there’s also my iPhone (in a basic black, boring case that gives me some extra battery life), which I’m never without for long.
I always wear my wedding band and my engagement ring. And I also wear a pair of earrings every time I go out, I don’t have any favorite pair. I also love wearing my Pandora bracelet or my new bracelet that I got in Poland, it’s rose gold and it looks like a watch strap (but it doesn’t have the watch part).
Right now? My engagement ring! ‘Cause it’s all sparkly and new and stuff 😉 I also love my dangly golden earrings and my golden choker necklace though.
Everyday of my life I wear my engagement ring and wedding ring and when I go out I add any earrings and necklace in gold and sometime silver. I don’t have any Kate Spade’s yet!!!! I will let my husband know! lolz.
I love my watches and have to have then on! Of course the uber special ripping is there too!
Definitely a watch, my favorite one is from Pandora. I feel completely naked without it!
I always wear earrings (either my white topaz studs or something dangly) and a watch. I recently got some really cool casual necklaces made from thin, colored titanium wire woven into ribbon, from Avance Accessories. They are totally cool, I like to mix and match different colors of the titanium ribbon with metal chains.
I’m as boring with my accessories as I am with my makeup! 🙂
I also wear my wedding and engagement rings, diamond studs that the Hubs gave me for our first Christmas together and a Citizen Eco Drive watch that never needs a battery (my old, more expensive watch that was also a gift from the Hubs had to be sent away to have the battery replaced regularly, which was expensive and a hassle, so I switched.) I use the same black Coach purse everyday, year round. I think it’s been like 14 years and I’m not kidding. I also have a brown Coach XL duffle bucket (from 1998) that gets pulled out occasionally. Feel free to be horrified. HAHA!
I always wear one of my wedding rings. I say “one of” because through the years I’ve gotten a couple upgrades. I have my original diamond solitaire and band in brushed yellow gold, a white gold custom setting with a natural smokey diamond in the center of a mix of diamonds and baguettes, and for my 20th anniversary my DH got me a blue diamond surrounded by white diamonds.
Always in the ears are either blue diamond or black diamond studs.
Two other rings I always wear are silver. One is a custom pinky ring (roses) and the other is an avantegarde setting with a herkimer diamond in it.
After all that? ANything is fair game – I’m a jewelry monger and have a TON. I mix it up but I definitely have been buying higher end copies of designer stuff. I change my other jewelry everyday depending on my mood or outfit.
p.s. the studs are in the secondary holes and I usually accompany them with my many other earring choices.
p.p.s. if I’m home cleaning? NO JEWELRY (except maybe the studs LOL)
Does cat hair count? 🙂 I usually just wear my wedding rings and some simple hoop earrings. And some kind of hair tie on my wrist so I can pull my hair up when it’s annoying me.
I wear the same jewelry every day except on special occasions, give or take a bracelet. My favorite is my grandmother’s class ring from 1931. It doesn’t look anything like today’s class rings and no one knows what it is unless the subject comes up. Her initials and graduating year are engraved on the inside. It’s awesome.
My Swiss Army watch isn’t quite the same but I love it. It’s mostly lifeproof. It’s the first thing I put on in the mornings.
Just 1 or 2 bobby pins to keep my hair at bay (whether I’m wearing a braid, ponytail, bun, or just my hair down, there are always a few strands that need to be pinned back!), and my industrial barbell earring, always in my left ear. I can change out the industrial jewelry, but I only do that a couple times a year because it’s a pain in the ass. I do accessorize every day but those are the only 2 consistent daily items! Otherwise it’s a huge rotation of scarves, bracelets, necklaces, sunglasses, rings, and headbands- a different combo every day!
Let’s see. My “constant” is my wedding/engagement ring, which is a solitary periwinkle-colored sapphire. (Side note: I only have one ring – my hubby got his ring & wore it during our engagement, and when I started to talk about getting a wedding band, he was like, “I don’t get another one. Why would you get another one?” I was stumped! I’ve been rockin it single-band style ever since 🙂 )
Other than that, I have a fairly simple leather Fossil wristwatch that I got earlier this year – it makes me feel so grown-up, for some reason! Haha. I’m always wearing a pair of Warby Parker glasses – I have two pairs, but typically rock the Welty style in Plum Marblewood. <3 Oh, and my Kate Spade iphone case (my one designer piece!!) is a fave, for sure – it's a Lichentstein-esque look that says "POP!"and I just love it.
And lastly, I have an "up-cycled" necklace that has a modified scrabble tile on it, with a map of NYC on the back. I bought that while we still lived in Montana, but had resolved to move to the Big City. I still love wearing it – in MT, it helped remind me that our sights were set on something bigger. Here, it reminds me to keep following my dreams!
I usually wear studs with a necklace or scarf, a watch and maybe a bracelet or two. I also rock my prescription Dolce & Gabbana glasses or my Hello Kitty sunglasses if it’s super sunny
Pearl earrings, my two/three favourite rings – the one with an amber stone is a permanent fixture unless it blatantly clashes with the look.
I have been wearing the same necklace for the best part of the last year too (decorative silver piece that has disks and balls of different sizes woven together, works with everything).
And I just realised how little these wary!
Now that I got a replacement for my old watch that will be a staple too.
I don’t wear anything on a regular basis actually. Change it up everyday. The only constant is probably my hair tie!
I have my wedding and engagement rings, which I love – yellow gold, channel diamonds on both, and little clusters of tiny diamonds that look like flowers. I also wear a yellow gold Michael Kors watch on a fairly regular basis.
I have no piercings, so no earrings for me!
I love wearing my pumpkin earrings!
My UP 24 and my Armani shades!
My favourite piece of jewelry is a silver bat necklace I purchased last year. I find myself often wearing it and people have commented how it fits me well.
