“Jewelry makes me feel really cool, to be honest,  I mean a lot of the people that I consider to be fashionable or stylish have this iconic look and it’s usually pulled together by some awesome jewelry and I really wanted to be seen like that because I think it’s really fun!”

“Jewelry makes me feel ready.  You know I get dressed in the morning and the last thing I put on is a necklace and it just makes me feel ready for the day.”

“Jewelry makes me feel special, I love choosing pieces that just help me feel beautiful in my day to day.”

“Jewelry makes me feel complete.   I would literally say that if I walk around without my jewelry on I feel like I am walking around naked.”   We’ve all been in the situation in which you leave your place in morning and remember you left your earrings at home and don’t feel complete!”

“Jewelry makes me feel spontaneous.”   Everyday you wake up and you pick out something that reflects how you are feeling, your mood at the moment, who you are seeing that day so you can mold what you are wearing and express yourself for the day.”

“Jewelry makes me feel like a grown up -- even though I am already a grown up.  I often feel that I am not good at grown up stuff, so when I put on earrings or a pretty necklace then I feel like a grown up lady for once in my life!”

“I typically don’t wear jewelry Monday through Friday- I am all business.  But the minute the weekend comes and we have an event or dinner, putting on jewelry makes me feel like I am out of work mode and into weekend mode and I feel like a whole different person!”

“Jewelry makes me feel like Princess Diana, one of my idols whom I was obsessed with growing up.”    “I have a ring my father gave me that is a replica of hers that I wear all the time!”

“Jewelry makes me feel treasured.”    “When I have received jewelry as a gift it’s been from someone who wanted me to know how important I was to them.”

Jewelry makes me feel special.  I like to wear fancy jewelry to support Horizon for Homeless Children events, but I also like to wear more modest jewelry when I am hanging out at home with my kids.
