Tuesday GTKY!

[litzo27]

1. Did you watch the Superbowl? Whom did you root for?
2. Do you wear jewelry? What kind? Favorite stores or sellers?

[2chatter]

1. Sort of. We had it on and had people over. I rooted for the food.
2. I wear a bracelet almost all the time. Like James Avery. The one I wear "everyday" is a Caribbean hook from our honeymoon. Diamond studs, rarely change them. Costume necklaces. Asked for a Brighton or similar short (think open blouse or tshirt) necklace for any upcoming holiday.

[sunbutter]

1. No
2. I keep it very simple. DH has purchased me some necklaces from Baroni recently that I really like.

[sept07b2b]

1. Yes. I was hoping both teams would lose somehow.
2. not really a jewelry person. Every day, I wear my engagement ring/wedding band, diamond studs and a necklace that my DH bought with the birthstones of our kids in it. I wish I were more adventurous, but I'm pretty boring with my accessories.

[kendraj426]

1. Did you watch the Superbowl? Whom did you root for?
Nope. I went grocery shopping then had some friends over for a game night.

2. Do you wear jewelry? What kind? Favorite stores or sellers?
I usually wear jewelry, but it's mostly simple small jewelry. I feel weird wearing statement jewelry, like it would look like I'm trying too hard to be 'in'.

I got a Pandora bracelet for Christmas from DH and an Alex & Ani bracelet from a friend with DD's initial on it. I have been wearing those frequently. I also often wear the jewelry I purchased in Ireland on our Honeymoon, and the pieces that DH has given me over the years. It's mostly amethyst because my favorite color is purple.

I don't really have any favorite jewelry brands, but my favorite store is Hannoush. We got our wedding bands & my engagement ring there, and the people there are wonderful. We also purchased my Pandora from them and plan to continue to buy from them as long as they are in business.

ETA: I also always wear my wedding band and engagement ring. I made a big deal about DH wearing his (he absolutely hates wearing it because it 'gets in the way'), so if I didn't wear mine I think he'd lose it.

1. Did you watch the Superbowl? Whom did you root for?
Yes. I rooted for the Seahawks, primarily out of my irrational(?) hatred of Tom Brady and Gisele.

2. Do you wear jewelry? What kind? Favorite stores or sellers?
Only my engagement ring and wedding band, nothing else

[liziz]

1. Went to a friend's house, but I was too busy momming/eating all the snacks to pay much attention until LO went down around half time. I did see the excitement right at the end, and the snacks were awesome.
2. I wear my everyday stuff basically all the time, but that's all. My rings, small diamond studs, and a silver starfish necklace. I have a fancy bracelet watch, but the battery is dead, so once I get that fixed, it will go back into my daily (or at least work daily rotation)

[sudokufan]

1. Didn't watch the super bowl. Don't care. I'm just not a sports person (unless it's Olympics time).
2. I have my replacement wedding band (I'm allergic to the real one) and my diamond earrings on every day. I'd like a necklace with my son's name and DOB, but my husband hasn't taken the hint yet.

[dglvrk2]

1. Not really. I watched the kids while DH - who is from Seattle and this meant a lot to him - watched the Super Bowl. I rooted vicariously for the Seahawks.
2. I wear my wedding/engagement set, two necklaces and silver earrings each day. The two necklaces were Mother's Day gifts from Tiffany's. I LOVE Tiffany's jewelry, but only own a few items. For earrings - as I tend to loose them frequently - I go for Target or Cost Plus.

[CoverGirl82]

1. No, I didn't watch the Superbowl. I'm really not a fan of Tom Brady, and I'm not really a Seahawks fan (my family roots for the Lions). I did watch a Youtube of Missy Elliott's performance yesterday, though. Girl's still got it!

2. I wear my engagement, wedding, and anniversary bands everyday. I typically wear stud earrings to work (pearl or CZ). I also have a Pandora bracelet that I wear, but usually more on the weekends if we're going somewhere. I usually don't wear necklaces unless it's a special occasion.

[doodler]

1. I watched the first half and the halftime show(best ever I thought!). After that I fell asleep but woke up randomly for that horrific last pass play. I was rooting for the Seahawks only because they were playing the cheaterface Patriots.

2. I wear lots of jewelry. I have tons of costume jewelry sets that I wear. I also have a diamond/sapphire pendant from DH and diamond cuff earrings that I wear on a regular basis. I wear a watch that my school gave me when I hit my 5 year anniversary and my fitbit. I hope to get the fitbit surge as soon as I can find one in a store so no more watch. I also wear two Alex & Ani style bracelets. One has my monogram and the other has a heart and key with my son's name engraved on it. I wear my wedding and engagement ring and I have an opal ring for my son's birthstone.

That was a lot of information about my jewelry!

[supertrooper1]

1. Yes, I'm a Seahawks fan because I'm near Seattle. Very disappointed in the outcome, but I'm still a 12.

2. I usually just wear by wedding band, which was purchased from Blue Nile online retailer (great experience with them) and a watch. If I'm at work, I wear a cheap Timex, otherwise I love my Coach watch.

[leap08]

1. Yes. I cheered for the Seahawks but honestly didn't care all that much who won.
2. I have several different sets of sapphire earrings and I usually switch between them. Recently I've been on a necklace kick and have started wearing more costume/statement necklaces.

1. Did you watch the Superbowl? Whom did you root for? Not at all. I posted this on here before, but I forgot it was the super bowl and accidentally got tickets to see the musical, Book of Mormon with my sister and niece. We had a blast, though.

If I did watch I'd root for the Seahawks. I don't like the patriots much and the Seahawk's uniform is more fun. My football loyalties are often decided based upon the uniform/team colors.  
2. Do you wear jewelry? What kind? Favorite stores or sellers?

My every single day jewelry is my wedding ring/engagement ring (don't know seller) as well as a ring from James Avery my mom got me years ago.

I also love my pearls my DH bought me when a jewelry store was going out of business as well as my "Return to Tiffany&Co Necklace. I know it's brand whoring but I can't help it, I think the heart is cute.

If I'm just buying for myself I like Stella & Dot (clearance only) or similar stuff.

[jlaok]

1. Yes, but I mostly watched the commercials and the halftime show. I somewhat rooted for the Patriots but that is just because DH is a huge Broncos fan and he didn't want Seattle to win again after last year's game.

2. I wear my wedding set, watch, and earrings. I also really like gemstones and I have a few gemstone right-hand rings that I'll rotate through. I have rings with DH, DD, and DS's birthstones and the birthstone from the month we got married.

[callmeKD]

1. Did you watch the Superbowl? Whom did you root for?

Yes, of course. I'm married to a life long Boston sports fan, so Go Pats! I'd love to debate why the Pats aren't cheaters, but life is too short to keep arguing about football.

2. Do you wear jewelry? What kind? Favorite stores or sellers?

I only wear my wedding ring and usually my "good" pair of pearls. When I owned a women's clothing store, I wore a lot more "costumey" jewelry, but I find it's really hard to wear a chunky necklace with a toddler who likes to pull on things that I'm wearing.

[twinmomma]

1. Yup, it was awesome!!!! (New England fan.)
2. Yes, almost every day. I have some Alex and Ani bracelets, but otherwise no real name brands. I actually have a ton of Walmart jewelry because it's cheap and trendy and I don't feel bad only wearing it for a few months. Kohl's clearance rack is also a favorite. I really like big earrings as my go to accessory. 

[psutexan]

1. I was rooting for Seattle because I also dislike Tom Brady.
2. I wear my rings, diamond studs, and nice watch daily. Most of the time I also wear my Yurman bracelets and necklace. On weekends, I do like to switch out my jewelry uniform for more funky, casual jewelry. Statement necklaces or bracelets. I like to get these items at Sam Moon, Charming Charlie, Macy's, etc.

[mana8503]

1. It was on but I was washing bottles, meal prepping for the week. I heard the halftime show while getting E to sleep. I watched the show on YouTube yesterday

2. Wedding band, when it fits, ering hasn't since 1st Tri. I have a few other rings I wear on the other hand, my hs and college rings, a Sapphire ring I got for Christmas, etc.

I'm starting to wear more statement necklaces, but I have some simple charms on a chain ones too. My new favorite is one with E's name, bday and birthstone. I bought it for myself after delivery on etsy.

I have 8 ear piercings. They all have a stud except the bottom two. I rarely wear anything, but H got me diamond studs for Christmas... I need to start remembering to put them in.

I should say... I only wear more than my wedding band at work. We have reached the grabbing stage with lo.

[RiseAndWine]

1. Yep but I was a background watcher while I did laundry and cleaning and cooking for the upcoming week. I was routing for the Seahawks but didn't really care either way. As a Redskins fan there was no good answer to this terrible superbowl year.

2. Yes I wear both costume and "good" jewelry, just depends on my mood. I wear my Pandora charm bracelet almost daily. And I have a cherry blossom ring from Pandora that I love as well. Everything else changes daily. For costume jewelry I like random places wherever I happen to be shopping. And I used to love Fire & Ice but haven't had as much luck there. Today I am sporting my awesome waffles necklace DH gave me for Christmas. I am channeling my inner Leslie Knope. And I love jewelry, in case you couldn't tell

[lynn0514]

1. I watched, more intently after DD went down for the night. I rooted for the Seahawks, to no avail.

2. I wear my engagement ring and wedding band, and a necklace that has pendants with my, DH's, and DD's initials. I do sometimes switch out the necklace for some other simple, silver necklaces. I'd like to incorporate some statement necklaces into my wardrobe, but my style is very simple and sort of preppy/classic, so I'm not sure if it would work/be too trendy for me.

[Ruca]

1. Yes we watched it and we rooted for the Pats!
2. I keep it very simple with jewelry... Amber necklace, pandora bracelet and wedding ring.

[ellabee]

1. Yes. We're big pats fans

2. Mostly just my engagement and wedding rings and a simple necklace and earrings. Shameless plug for my friends etsy site. She makes the best earrings and I always get compliments on them. m.etsy.com/shop/vdazzled

[cathain]

Hey! I my usual board is parenting, but I check in & lurk here some, so I thought I'd try to join in.

1. Did you watch the Superbowl? Whom did you root for?
Not really - I just flipped it over over so often. I was generally rooting for Seattle.

2. Do you wear jewelry? What kind? Favorite stores or sellers?
I forget jewelry most of the time. I work from home, so I don't make that much of an effort most days. When I do remember, I usually wear earrings & a pandora style bracelet, sometimes a necklace. I got 3 new necklaces for Christmas/birthday, so I'm trying to make more of an effort with those.

[tas1883]

1. No, don't care about football
2. Off and on mostly cosmetic. I only wear my rings when I know I'm not going to be baking, traveling, kayaking, or working in the yard. I lost my first one in the Pacific Ocean as it came flying off when I threw the ball for the dog. I learned my lesson the hard way.

[alioop1028]

1. I don't sports very well so I rooted for the Patriots because they were the team I recognize. Mainly I stuffed my face with snacks and played on my phone.


2. I have a cluster f*ck of jewelry. I usually just throw on a necklace that I bought at some random place or fancy jewelry people gifted me to shows or special occasions. I usually forget to wear my wedding ring and then tease my husband that he's out with the mistress.

1. The above is me too. I never got over how they got together and am in the "always a cheater... must have deflated his balls" camp. I usually don't watch sports at all but always do superbowl with DH.

2. Lots of costume type jewelry or statement pieces purchased at Macys, TJMaxx, Loft, WHBM, etc. All rings and necklaces, no bracelets. I have about 8 watches to choose from instead. No earings as no pierced ears. And fancier jewelry for special occasions. I take off all jewelry as soon as I walk through the door though (including wedding band).

[queenbabee]

1. Lord no. Football is the worst....second only to commercials. #teamnetflix


2. Pearl studs (imposters from target lol) and a watch at work. I do love simple bracelets like pandora & alex&ani, but haven't been wearing since LO because he tries to eat them lol. I used to wear a simple silver necklace with an small anchor charm, but he tried to pull it off so it's just easier not to for now. A target watch at work.
#teamtarget

eta oops, wedding rings lol. #teammarried

[k3am]

1. Superbowl was on, but I couldn't really care less.
2. I wear diamond studs daily. Wedding/engagement rings are worn for "stuff" but if I'm at home or at work, they're not on. Necklaces on ocassion.

[somebabiesmom]

I watched the halftime show, but that probably doesn't count.

Except for my wedding ring, I'm on a kid-imposed jewelry hiatus.

ETA I love Tom Brady. Hate bitchy Gisele.
