Scale Jewelry
are ladies that wear too much jewelry simply making up for lost youth and beauty?
I strongly feel that the older a woman gets, the more jewelty and embellishments she wears, especially as you go up the income scale. Teens and college kids prob are more into piercings or
ankle bracelets at most. As you get into the 30′s and 40′s, you
see the rings and earings, embellished by diamonds. At 60+,
you see veritable showcases of jewelry, especially as you go up the income scale, almost literally covered with diamonds from head to toe. The upper class socialite can be seen with a whole
display of tieras, necklaces, earings, large palatine crosses,
bracelets from wrist to elbow over her suede gloves, and brooches
wherever room can be had on the body proper.
Again, my question is, is this just to make up for lost youth?
If so, is this a progressive thing as a woman ages? And why?
How could the glitter of a D-flawless diamond ever make up for the lost charms of youth? Is the sense of aging too much to
bear without the adornment of jewelry?
I love jewelry and I have been told I accessorize well. I am near 40, but continually shock others when I am carded due to a youthful appearance. As you gain more financial stability you are able to indulge in those things you could not afford in the lean years…and some people just have bad taste, or are making up for other things, besides lost youth, such as culture, status, economic standing. Not to mention it is the best apology a spouse can buy
