I’m not big of gifts. Mostly because I’m so focused on practical necessities that it literally pains me to receive an expensive gift that I know will be exciting for a little while, but will soon be just another item in my closet.
I really only put value on items I choose for myself. These items are usually things I’ve thought out for a long time and even made a pros and cons list as to why I should get it.
One Christmas I knew I could use a necklace. Something simple and yet a little shiny. Something that could go with every outfit so I always look fashionable. Whether it be at the grocery store, church or at home. In sweats, pyjamas or a dress.
My husband bought me this necklace that was supposed to be Sterling silver. I know because I picked it out myself. So you can bet it was affordable. I thought it was beautiful and I wore it with everything.
One day it started to rub me the wrong way. My neck felt itchy. It had began to turn an awful brown rusty color and irritated my skin.
