I like sunglasses in summer because its like a barrier between you and the world. I like the thought that no one can see my eyes. They do annoy me but I've learnt to ignore it.

I wear no jewelary at all. I sometimes wonder what would happen if I got engaged/married, because I would be really bothered by having to wear a ring all the time.

hello

i wear glasses to see but i will take them off to go shopping or if i am around people because i prefer them to be in soft focus rather than in fine detail, also i find that i can feel them constantly and if i am stressed i prefer to not have the distraction, i do wear two rings, one is my wedding ring and the other is a sort of engagement ring but it is a large silver dragon which i love, sometimes they really annoy me and i have to take them off but after a couple of days i will put them on again, i never forget they are there and they can prove distracting but because i love them and my wife who gave them to me i keep them on, i wear one small loop through my right ear lobe which i like because i find that if i get stressed i can turn it and the action helps to calm me, i also wear a flat studded leather collar which i find really irritating if wet but otherwise i enjoy the familiar feeling and as my dogs all wear collars i find it quite comforting when i am not with them, i am more likely to be really annoyed by clothing labels or sleeves.

Same here. I have to put my hair up for deep concentration.

I only wear earrings, and I never wear them in bed. I can't wear bracelets, watches, or rings because of my rheumatism. Necklaces annoy me since they won't stay straight.

My glasses don't bother me except when they're dirty or the screws work loose.

I got so tired of my hair getting in my way that I cut it all off and I have a crewcut now.

I cant wear rings etc either. Only my wedding band and that took a long time to get used too. I did take it off a few times. Also make up as it feels so heavy on my skin. If I have to go somewhere really special(photos etc) I have to go home early so I can wash it off.
My hair has to be the same all the time the part in the middle and a small fringe. If my part goes on the side it actually feels so uncomfortable. I have tried to grow my fringe many times but as soon as it hit my eyelashes I had to cut it.

I love sunglasses too except when others are wearing them as I feel like I still have to try and find their eyes to talk to them. Im getting better with this now I have been diagnosed that I really dont care if they think "why is she looking at her shoes when she talks to me?"

I suppose clothing could also come in on this subject. I tend to wear the same two outfits all the time even though I have a wardrobe full of clothes.

In my case, I don't like my hair covering my ears and everytime I get a haircut, I asked to cut the area around my ears short.

As for jewerly, I wear earrings on occassion (I have three holes in each ear) and a necklace with my sorority letters that the only time it comes off is if the chain breaks.

I dont have glasses. I have good eye sight but i love jewerely. If i had the money i would buy lots of jewerly even though i dont wear it much. My favourite jewerly is a love knot ring my bf gave me and it has a real diamond. My second favourite is what my sister gave me and it is a silver braclet love heart charm. My third is what my girlfriend gave me which is a neclace with a silver heart. My fourth favourite is a necklace made out of pink leather interwined with a chain and with a love heart charm.
I love pearl necklaces and recently bought some pearl earrings. I made a necklace out of cream and peach colour pearl beads and crystal with leaf charms.
One of my favourite necklace at the moment is on a leather band and it is made of little shells in the shape of a flower. I even have a necklace made out of beads and feathers. It is really pretty.
I have these earring they are like old fashione4d and made with like a blue sapphire stone. People say I look like cleopatra when i wear them. My favourite earrings are like in the shape of cuff sleepers and all studded with diamonds. I also love ankle braclets.

Hair, glass and metal topic

Hair is useful, expecially in the cold. Glasses are are visual aid, and jewellery is optional...but nice.
