What's so great about wearing jewelry?

I personally don't understand it, I don't even like wearing rings on my fingers.

Good matching jewerly elevates an outfit significantly! It has to match we'll though, just like clothes there is too much and just right. You can also wear it often and have a defining piece of jewerly! If you are not into fashion it's ok to not like jewelry though :)
There is also the topic of high priced brand jewelry... with those kind i would agree with you. The cost of material and production or the quality or even aesthetic does not match with the price. I like Thai Gold jewelry, it's like an investment money vise. You can sell them for as much as you bought it! Or some cheap but cute jewelry from big fashion retailers. Also the second hand market for jewelry is really interesting! So many unique pieces with personality for a low price! Now i love jewelry and am rambling, i hope you maybe get my passion for it? 😂 If it's not you passion don't force yourself to like it though. It's just different tastes ~ 🥰

I like significant things, like gifts from a special person or unique vintage things, but new stuff that has no real history or special intent is just stuff.

Not everyone likes jewelry.
It can be a fashion statement, an accessory, a sign of weather.
It can make the wearer feel good, some natural stones like pearls can feel warm.

It could be a family heirloom, moms ring that she had as a child.
Some pieces like that are very special to the person.
Yet it is not all that uncommon for people to not like wearing or owning any jewelry at all.
My dad was a master diamond setter. I ended up following in his footsteps, and owned or family's jewelry store for 32 years before retiring.
It is now in the hands of someone else, the 4th owner since 1936.

It accentuates and amplifies an outfit, especially when wearing fancier clothes. I wear vintage Ottoman style rings on my fingers when I go out in my suits or overcoat. I also have a Celtic armring and Torc (necklace) which was a symbol of manhood in the Iron Age among the Celts and the Norse as well.

I did zero research after reading this but I once read that humans like shiney things like polished metals and stones because it satisfies the part of our brain that gets excited when you find water. Early humans would be rewarded for finding shimmering water in the distance. Imagine going days without finding water and then you come across shimmering in the distance. So basically a survival mechanism.

Some of them are a good gesture and have an interesting story.
If a brother wears the dog tag of his brother that died in service, for example, I would think that's beautiful.
They make for good mementos.

Mostly people just use them to boast though, not a fan of that either.

I like rings on my fingers and bells on my toe, and a bone in my nose ho ho.
