A Charmed Life

What’s the oldest things you’re wearing today?

The oldest thing – ok things I’m wearing today are my Pandora charm bracelets. I cannot take these things off or put them back on by myself so they live on my wrist. Shower, gym, work, sleep – that are always there.

  1. yeah, my jewelry stays on all the time except in the ocean. Then it comes off and I struggle to put on a couple of pieces. But I would rather that then have some mermaid 🧜‍♀️ swipe them from me lol, they already have a cool pair of sunglasses from me.

  6. Awesome bracelets! Some things don’t age, but stay with us while reminding us of either great moments or a loved one.

  7. That’s kinda cute, I guess each one has some meaning or memory? You probably guessed but I’m not a jewellery person, but I’m married to one😂 I sometimes wear a running vest I bought in 1983 (it’s been washed😂)

  8. I’ve got a red bracelet for my Chinese zodiac year from a friend last year, which, since my year has passed, I could take off… but I have no idea how, so like you, I just keep it on. It’s a nice reminder, and when it wants to leave, it will on its own 😊.

  10. How beautiful! Would love to know about the meaning behind the charms if you ever want to write about that! My Pandora bracelet has been oxidising for years and I mean to get that fixed every summer. I would only want to rescue the charms to get my favourite one back: a silver suitcase with a draped tag, gifted to me by family members after my family and I left our home country.

    They gave it to me because they knew I loved to travel, but I kept it dear and close to my heart because it reminded me of home.

  11. See and that’s the beauty behind this bracelet. Each charm tells a story. Thanks for that suggestion. I think I will do that on the future. I have different pieces for different phases and interest in my life.

    I love the story of your suitcase charm!! More please! ❤️

  17. Your bracelets sound like my wedding ring. Mine is on so tight, I’ll NEVER get it off, unless I put my hand in the freezer for like an hour. Not that that’s a bad thing! 😉

  19. “I love how a simple piece of jewelry can hold an entire timeline of your life! It’s like wearing a scrapbook on your wrist. That suitcase charm story from one of the comments is so beautiful, and your martini glass and sunglasses charms sound like so much fun. I would definitely love to read a future blog post diving into the stories behind each of your charms!”

  21. Thank you so much! 😊 I’m really glad you liked the comment. Take your time at the gym—would love to hear your thoughts on meditation whenever you’re free to share them on my site. Have a great workout!

  22. Your bracelet is lovely & I’m sure each piece is a memory of something or someone. I am not a jewelry person. I usually only wear earrings, occasionally a necklace. So, I guess I have to say my earrings—but there is nothing special about them, unfortunately. 😏
