"Oh! Don't they look beautiful?" that's what i say as soon as i see a jewellery. I buy lots of junk jewellery, more of oxadised ones. I love them because they gel with all types of cloths. I mainly get good earrings or designer studs in white metal and oxadised bangles than a necklace or a neck chain. My shopping are is ofcourse the street vendors in the local market. On the other hand, my mother goes for gold jewellery. She says it is an assest unlike my junk. "After all they are junk, valueless all time". So what type of jewellery do you like to collect and where do you get them from?

Who in this world don't likes jewelery made of gold or platinum or silver,be it a guy or a girl??? I love gold jewelery too. But right now cannot have a collection of it...Honestly said,I am not so rich...These ornaments are too expensive.

But you can always go for silver or junk jewellery that will actually blend with any type of clothing - traditional or contemporary. Thanks for posting :)

Hii, I personally love junk jewellery. I have a huge collection of it. Whenever i go to markets the only thing which attracts my eyes are these junk jewelleries. I don't like gold that much. I do like silver and diamonds but don't have a buget for it right now. And i mostly purchase it from local market as they are lot more cheaper there.

white gold is in trend but i don't personally prefer buying them because after all the money you pay people ask me if it is silver! LOL :)

IT is funny that whatever i touch will touch the sky in cost.believe me ..i dont see the cost before choosing it.it is happening from childhood it seems ...clothes or jewelry or something else.i think i have some rich taste.well i am like your mother divkris.i prefer gold than other.i also like fashion jewelry a lot.you are right on this one.they match to my outfits a lot.now a days nobody is noticing the difference between them either.i think one should buy what they enjoy a lot no matter what.so i respect your feeling about other jewelry.hope u will get lot of them in future.

I am not in hobbies of collecting something. But in jewelry i love to collect silver. I do admit it is not as real as it is, but it doesn't fade and tarnish. Well i can not afford to buy one because i am not capable of earning for myself, so i admit i am still relying to my father in money. I ask for it when it is my birthday, when i got honor at the end of the school year, or i rank in quizz bee in regional school. I love necklace that the pendant is my zodiac sign, and any other animals. I have fondness in animals so i prefer it. I love the chain will be little bit big and i love to wear it everyday.:)

Silver jewellery are good to collect too. But unfortunately for us it does tarnish and it is hard to remove those salt deposites from the silver anklets! :)
