Every piece I wear has some sort of sentimental story backed behind it (my bracelets/rings/necklaces/some of my earrings). For me, wearing sentimental jewelry serves 3 purposes:
1) Bringing life to pieces that have been given to me with love
2) Carrying my loved ones wherever I go
3) Prevented me from making impulsive jewelry purchases (because fast fashion jewelry doesn't feel the same way a gift does)
Ig the only exceptions I make in fast fashion jewelry is earrings, but only bc I need boring earrings for corporate-wear lol

I'm personally a very sentimental person, so, every so often I take a good look at my jewelry. You see, I am composed of everything that people have gifted me. From necklaces I have gifted myself, to rings my parents have bought me, to bracelets my ex has made me. Nonetheless, I like to remember each and every memory attached to these pieces of jewelry, they remind me of who I once was, how much I have grown. Here's to new beginnings, old endings-- and everything in between.

I have two small, stackable silver rings with childrenâs names engraved on them. I got the first one right after I returned to work with my first. It was really hard leaving him, so I got it as a comfort for myself. Naturally, I got one when my second was born as well.
I didnât realize how attached I was until I briefly lost them at work. I never take them off, but I did to help a kid and they fell out of my pocket. I was panicked even though theyâre replaceable. Theyâre the only jewelry I wear 24/7 (aside from my daith). My wedding ring set is really important to me, duh, but my husband took a silversmithing class through the park district to make it and itâs just so perfectly me.
I also have a gift for finding 4 leaf clovers, so I keep those around. At this point I always have rocks and/or crystals on me. Itâs fun grabbing a jacket or bag I havenât used and finding what Iâve stashed đ

Itâs very vain, but if I donât like the way I look when I wake up in the morning I might not get out the house. I hate waking up in the morning and feeling like absolutely naked. If you have a few pieces of solid jewelry that you can sleep in I feel like it really alleviates that feeling. My recs based on myself are a permanently soldered bracelet, a bangle on each wrist, small hoops or sleepers and a daeth piercing. Anklets can be good too if they are solid!

I have to disagree with the people who say that we need to âstayâ and âfightâ for IG to be a better platform because in actuality, itâs our presence and engagement that gives them data, and therefore money. As long as they have those 2 things, they make their bottom line and wonât really care about its users desires unless theyâre making a move for the optics.
If we REALLY want to hold them accountable, we need to impact the money they make, which means permanently deleting or marking your account as inactive & never coming back. Theyâll only care if theyâre bleeding moneyâ so make them bleed.

Now more than ever we gotta show up for the causes we care about!!! Online reposting and presence is good but it doesn't get the full job done unless we show up and show out!!!! Show up to your city/town hall meetings and be an active participant if you are able, bc if we don't speak IRL we don't exist
