More than half of the Christmas gifts bought this year are jewelry.

This more or less confirms what I expected - I am more interested in jewelry than ever.

The other trend I have spotted is that the jewelry bought and gift wrapped this Christmas are few in the variety of plain silver and gold. I have developed an appetite for color in jewelry and it shows in this year's gifts.

Here is one that got away . This is the sort of colorful jewelry I would have loved to give and receive.

Too bad it's out of stock. I thought I'll make a post of it to remind myself to check on it in the future.

Some lucky gal may just get it for a gift for whatever occasion. That lucky gal may even be me.
