Do you regularly wear jewelry dedicated or personalized for your children? Why do you do it?
Recently I have noticed a lot of new moms wearing necklaces engraved with their infant's initial. I find it to be very basic/common/#blessed. |
Mine just says Carrie. |
Um, you’re so cool? |
Just like Sex in the City, aw. |
I have a ring that I wear but only I know the significance. I bought it when I returned to work and when I feel a little bummed and miss my son I look at it. |
Those moms almost certainly received them as a gift. I wear mine because my mom gave it to me, not because it’s my style. |
I have rings with their birthstones. |
My husband gave it to me to celebrate DS's first Christmas. It hold great sentimental value to me. Not sure what is basic about a small classic pendant necklace, but you do you. |
Me too. I picked them out and dh got me for mother's day. They are pretty rings and I get the bonus of smiling from thinking about my kids when I see them (I primarily wear to work). |
I have a necklace with five interlocking circles for our five family members. It’s pretty and just my style, if not overtly “family.” |
I got a Cartier Trinity ring when I had my baby (3 members of family). |
I have a sapphire and diamond eternity band that I got for my first mother’s day. I also have a letter necklace from Tiffany’s with a diamond that I added to it. I actually got it years ago but ironically the letter is the same letter as my kids so it would look like it was a “kids” jewelry piece when in reality it’s a very old piece that happens to also symbolize my kids in initials. |
I've wanted to get something like that, but have been waiting until we are done having kids so that I can design it. I guess I'm basic! I already have a wedding ring for my husband and I would like to wear something to celebrate my kids. |
Same. The are simple, stacked rings with square-cut stones. |
Also - I got the stacked rings rather than one ring with both kids' stones because we were unsure at the time if we'd have a 3rd and this way I could easily add a 3rd (which we decided not to do). |
