Anyone else here (besides myself) not a fan of jewelry (you can take it or leave it)

Talk of diamonds, pearls, various precious stones made into jewelry do absolutely nothing for me. In fact, I have zero interest in wearing any. The only thing that I do wear is my Mom’s wedding ring (sentimental value). I don’t like necklaces, rings and bracelets of any sort.
Makes me wonder what I am going do when my partner and I exchange vows. Not puttin’ a ring on it.

Doesn’t do anything for me, I’m pressed to even wear a watch and don’t though I appreciate a well made one. My wife is pretty minimalist about it though she’s an occasional sucker (in a good way) for unique earrings, particularly individually made pairs and we’ve found some really pretty ones in our travels – nice remembrances.
For the wedding, light candles and exchange them.
I like the jewelry @Mariah is selling and will buy some soon
Other than my wedding ring, I really don’t wear much in precious stones. I’d like some diamond studs…but other than that, nope.
EDIT: Jude, would you both be more likely to get tattoo rings?
Jewellery is much more dainty than I am.
I like jewelry. Mostly colored gem stones and old-fashioned pieces.
The only jewelry I wear is my wedding and engagement rings. I very rarely put on one of the three necklaces I own, about once or twice a year.
Not a fan. I know none of it serves a purpose, so it just makes me wonder why I would have it on lol.
I dislike jewelry. It’s completely unnecessary (IMO). When I’ve tried to wear a chain, a bracelet, even a watch, I feel claustrophobic and can’t help but feel like WHY?!?!?! I’m just adding something to myself to be aware of and worry about for no benefit.
Wedding ring is it for me.
I’m a guy and don’t even understand the concept. I don’t wear any.
On a woman, a few little pieces are ok. But for me, a woman loaded up with something on every finger or stuck through in places theat were not meant to be stuck is a turn off.
Although I am always willing to reconsider.
As a guy, I don’t care for jewelry. I don’t wear a watch, a wedding ring, or anything else that could be considered of that ilk.
I don’t have any tattoos either. I guess I am just not that into decoration.
Me! Me! Me!
I only wear the ring my husband bought for me several years ago. It has a birthstone for each of our children.
Necklaces make my neck itch and I grew tired of wearing earrings many years ago. I’m really not into accessories.
I am totally on board! I don’t wear a watch or any other jewelry on any consistent basis. I completely do not understand costume jewelry. Most things people wear strike me as “junk” and I don’t understand why they bother . . .
I’m not a jewelry connoisseur – I hardly know a precious stone from a rhinestone, or real gold from costume jewelry – but I do love jewelry and wear quite a lot. I’m just not very picky about stones or any of those specifics, and as long as it doesn’t turn my skin green, I don’t care what it’s made of.
I like jewellery and I am pretty fussy about what I will wear. I don’t wear plastic or fake jewellery. I like simple and tasteful pieces and I have quite a few. Despite liking them though, I tend not to wear much. I wear my wedding and engagement rings, a ring on the other hand that my husband had remodelled for me and a ring my grandmother left to me. A simple watch and a gold chain and pendant. I rarely change the pendant. I have told my family not to buy me any more. It is such a waste. It sits in a drawer.
I would not say I am not a fan, but I am definitely not obsessed at all. I have a few pieces, most of which are sentimental, some of which have some significant monetary value. I am almost never jewelled up. Typically if I am going somewhere I have on one ring, a watch or bracelet, and earings. A lot of the time I leave without any earings on.
I appreciate good jewelry. I love silver, gold, platinum, diamonds, rubies, torquise, emeralds…I own two sets of wedding bands and diamonds. I love them. They are very sentimental. I don’t know their monetary value. I don’t care.
I also own a very nice set of pearls and my Aunt Sarah’s, pronounced Suree’s, wedding band. A little band of tiny diamonds her only son, Junior, found on the road and she wore like a teasure. My mother loved jewelry. She gave her rings to my Baby Sister. Her Baby Girl. She inherited my Mom’s love of jewelry.
I love jewelry. Its just fun to wear. But I hardly take the time to wear any except for my watch ( I feel naked if I don’t have one on) and my wedding band. I probably only wear my necklaces and earings if I’m going someplace special. To me its removable art work for your body.
I also love hats and scarfs, and glove. Two things I rarely ever use except if its really cold outside.
Hats make my hair flat. Scarfs fall or get caught in things and gloves make it hard to do things like buttons on your coat and you have to find a place to put them. Plus one always gets lost.
Oh, I have a pair of gold hoop earrings I wear nearly 365 days a year. You reminded me, @Pandora.—I also love hats and scarfs. I get to wear hats in Florida because of the sun.
Some people wear hats so beautifully though. I always feel a little silly in them but agree they are lovely @Pandora. My colleague is one of those people who can throw on a hat and a scarf and look amazing and stylish. Not me.’
I do wear sun hats (with big brims) and I don’t care if I look silly.
No jewelry for me thank you. I don’t even wear my wedding ring (I can’t now any way because it was stolen by a burglar). I only wear a black plastic sports watch. Is that jewelry?
I like the concept of jewelry, but I hardly wear any at all. I have multiple piercings in my ears, and I wear teeny tiny gold hoops in them all. If I could wear it, they’d be silver, but my metal allergy got really bad. The less fussy, the better.
I don’t even wear my wedding ring, because it’s silver. :(
I’m not a huge fan either. I will usually only wear either a necklace or a bracelet if my outfit is a little boring. It’s really ridiculous seeing advertising for freakin expensive jewellery. It’s always like “men, buy this for your loved one!” or “your girlfriend will really appreciate this 2 carat diamond blah, blah, blah”. I’d rather set up a home entertainment system for $4000 instead of a piece of jewellery any day.
I love jewelry. I feel naked if I don’t have my rings on. I love costume jewelry, pearls, handmade jewelry. I just love accessories full stop. I’m not a huge fan of diamonds though.
I am okay with wearing certain types of jewelry, but I am not extremely fond of wearing rings on my fingers.
