I Stopped Wearing Jewelry During Quarantine—Here's How I Got My Sparkle Back
After unearthing and cleaning the jewelry I already had, my biggest challenge was remembering to wear something every day. Since WFH had significantly altered my morning routine, I no longer had accessorizing on my list
I don't like to shower or sleep in jewelry, so at some point in March, when my earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and rings came off, I just never put them back on. Getting back into wearing different jewelry every day was a bit trickier to solve since it involved creating a new habit to fit our new normal during the quarantine. Although I trust Pariseault completely when she says it's fine to wear certain pieces 24/7, for me, it was just a comfort factor—I simply cannot sleep in earrings.
With that in mind, Pariseault recommends that I start with a few necklaces with simple chains and pendants ranging from 15 to 20 inches in length. "The key to wearing multiple necklaces is having chains that are different thicknesses and styles. This will keep them from tangling too much," she explains. She also suggested having a few simple bracelets sodered on, so I wouldn't have to worry about switching it up. "I like to have bracelets soldered on my wrist because they fit very snug and stay in place nicely," she explains. "I can’t stand bracelets that move around a lot."
