The Family jewels.
So, I was wondering if anyone but me wears jewelry every day.
I have:
-Chain-link necklace with Celtic well-being symbol.
-Skull necklace inlaid with crystal (white all over the head, black in the eye sockets)
-chain-link ring
-pewter flame ring
-Gold class ring with white sapphire (birthstone.)
-leather bracelet with seven chrome .22 bullets across it.
I also used to have this metallic demon skull with glowing red eyes that had a sword through his head... but some asshole broke it's chain.
I myself prefer silver jewelry to gold, but white gold is cool.

I wouldn't necessarily call it jewelry, but I wear a long piece of black thread around my wrist. On the other wrist I wear a black bracelet made of string with five beads knotted into it. I wear the same neon green gauges every day, also. Sometimes I'll throw on a black chocker.

I don't wear jewelery, unless it's something that I like.

Same white gold ball earrings everyday.

Neato. xD
I like the idea of a choker, but I could never wear one. I HATE having things touching my throat. I feel like I'm being attacked when there's something there.

I only have the two necklaces. @_@ Dad doesn't like for me to wear them, so he doesn't buy em for me, and I spend most of my cash on gas.
._. How does it feel to get a piercing? I was thinking about an ear maybe.

I've got an amber and silver ring I wear every day. And I have a thing about always wearing something on my neck. Usually it's a black pearl, set in a gold flower and strung on a piece of black velvet. Sometimes I'll wear a spiked collar instead, or just tie a piece of lace or satin ribbon around my neck. As long as I can feel something around my neck, I don't care all that much what it is. My industrial never changes, and my earrings rarely do, but since I don't actually put those on every day I'm not sure whether or not they count.

I always have on two garnet and silver bracelets (one on each wrist), a garnet and silver poison ring, my platinum wedding band the garnet and silver wedding band reproduction of Martin Luthars, a white gold cross adorned with garnets from the 1920's (some days a Victorian looking garnet and silver necklace instead, it's the type where the part that falls on your chest is about 6 inches across in a half circle shape with a chain on each end to then go up and go around your neck), a silver toe ring, silver drop earrings with large faceted garnets in them and my grandmothers white gold and diamond engagement band from the 1940's...and I think that is it for everyday wear.

Hm, I don't know, fiends. Not much of a necklace person, so I think maybe a ring, with my birthstone, pentagram, or something. I don't know.

The three things I never take off:
My engagement/wedding ring (it's both.. I hate wearing two rings on one finger)
My claddagh
My pentacle

I actually do wear chains... but I don't necessarily consider them jewelry.

Well, that's probably true.
They're more of... an accessory?
I don't know.
I just call them jewelry because I turned a wallet chain into a necklace and ring.

I would wear more jewelry, rings, necklaces, bracelets, etc...But the amount of money for the ones I want are too much. And at that, I'm still waiting to find a bracelet I could attach a chain from to a ring...

I only wear silver, too..
Gold is UGLY.
And anything else always feels freezing to me. Silver is always warm..

Four rings: An ankh from London, a jolly roger from Bali, a dragon from here, and a snake from Malaysia.
Two bracelets: One with mother of pearl and... that black stone, inlaid in silver. And one with jade and some reddish stone inlaid in silver that my father bought in Argentina.
Any combination of my pewter skull beaded necklaces that I made.
Celtic earrings from the monastery in Iona, Scotland.
Sometimes my black and silver necklace from Croatia.

I wear a white gold promise ring every day 24/7, I've gotten strangely superstitious about it, and my finger feels weird without it. Then I wear either a gold necklace (I really don't like the gold, but my bf got it for me last christmas) or a huge black cross, or a cameo on a string of pearls.

I usually wear the same cross day after day until it breaks. Then I buy a new one. I change the rest of my jewelry regularly.. I prefer silver to gold as well, but I do also like to wear gold from time to time, especially ornate, antique-looking pieces.

The only jewellery I wear everyday is my body jewellery.
I'm obsessive with matching, so when I do wear it the colours and everything match beyond reason.

I always have something on my neck, I dodn't really care what it is as long as somethings there. I always match all my earings...I very seldom wear rings or bracelets because I find they get in the way. I have lots of nice hair clip sort of things...but I don't know if that counts as jewelry. I also wear chains...I like many of you prefer silver jewelry, gold for some reason looks tacky to me but silver seems to look very elegant.

I only wear my simple silver hoop earrings x 5
Eyebrow stud.
And a steal watch with a blue face (Swatch)
I have white gold chain which I only wear if I'm wearing a low cut top.
Other then that I don't wear jewellery.
Although I've seen loads I like, I just don't have the clothes to wear them with.

I have a TON of necklaces. Most of the expensive ones were gifts from me, I usually won't spend more than $10 on a necklace.
It depends on what type of piercing you get and what your pain tolerance is. Earlobe piercings don't really hurt, it's more of a "pinch" then a warm sensation afterwards (I have four, so it can't be that bad). If you're getting a cartilage piercing...those do tend to hurt more. My industrial made me cry. I didn't feel a thing with my tongue. As for my nose, the first time I got it pierced, it hurt a little bit, but nothing too bad. It fell out one night before it was healed, and closed up right away. A few weeks later, I had it re-pierced in the same spot it was in before (over the scar), and it hurt very, very bad. Piercing into scar tissue will always be more painful.
Go to an actual piercing shop to if you decided to get your ears pierced. I would never trust those mall shops with the piercing guns.

I always wear my pentacle (well, I might take it off when I'm on stage acting, but that's something entirely different). I really feel odd without it; I lost it after a performance once and spent several days looking for it until a friend of mine found it and returned it to me. Apart from that, I have this spiked choker that I'm very fond of, and can often be found using. I have so much jewelry that I hardly know which to wear, so I usually go with my pentacle only unless it's a very special occasion.
