Do you wear jewelry or have you ever worn jewelry into the water at the beach?

The sun catches it, but I've never understood why would anyone do that?

I wear very minimal jewelery these days. A tiny pair of hoop earrings and a Hebrew charm

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

Never.  I don't even wear jewelry in the pool.  Earrings would puncture my float and I might forget or lose a ring outside lol.

 

I can't imagine why anyone would, especially expensive rings either.  Too risky.💝🌸

I do not, and know it is not a good idea, but I have married friends who NEVER take their rings off.🥰 My DSIL did, but she only wore 24K gold.😊

No. On our honeymoon DH and I were wading out when his ring,  which was already a tad big, slipped right off his finger into the ocean. Amazingly enough a man standing next to us scooped a handful of sand up and the ring was in it. We went to a local jeweler who resized it.

 

 

 

 I learned long before that never to wear any jewelry in the ocean, but this just reinforced it. 

 

 

I don't wear any jewelry in any body of water. The only exception is I have always worn my swimmer's (Bulova MarineStar) watch in a pool.  Smiley Happy

I forgot to mention a funny story.
 Maybe 25 years ago, Jill Bauer sold me an artisan from Bali SS sexy ankle bracelet.  I thought I was hot stuff wearing to the beach in Florida until the temperatures soared and it became hot as fire on my leg!  I couldn't get it off fast enough!😂😂😂

 

I still have it, it's gorgeous...but NEVER wear to the beach or when it's too hot lol.

When I went to the beach/pool I always kept my engagement/wedding rings on.  In fact, I recently had to have them cut off and resized.  I never was afraid that they would come off unexpectedly!!

No.  Sunscreen, water, and sand is quite enough to deal with!

only small ball studs----can't even remember when I've been to a beach--but would never wear pricey stuff.
