You wake up
one morning, looked at the watch and started off your day as any other day.
Brush, Tea / Coffee, Shower, getting dressed, looking at yourself in the mirror
and having the feeling of pride –‘Umm, someone’s really pretty!’
And
then you open your jewelry drawers to add that extra oomph factor with some of
the jewelry and accessories. Something that just not makes you look more
beautiful, but also something that makes you more confident and gives you an
attitude. Well, coming back, to your surprise all your shiny, gorgeous,
beautiful, pieces go missing. Really? Now what?
Ever
imagined, what would happen if all the jewelry, real and fake disappeared from
the earth one morning? What would the world be like?
Let’s
see what it appears to me.
1. Stress Shopping
What would women do if they would get
stressed? I know a lot of friends and colleagues who shop when they are
stressed. I do it too. If there is no jewelry in our malls and online jewelry stores, we would
miss one of the best stress relaxation methods that have worked on women for
ages. Yoga, Aerobics, Jogging are all good, but jewelry shopping is a kick ass.

2. Wedding Ring
If there was no
jewelry what would couples exchange for their wedding vows? The most beautiful
thing in a wedding is finding the best engagement ring on earth. So what do you
think would replace the engagement ring in a world without jewelry
3. Earn more and
save more
On the brighter
side, maybe there would be less to spend if there is no jewelry. Women would
get restless during their shopping spree and men would be happy as they don’t
have to earn crazy more to make their partners happy.
4. Less Revenue
Ah, I see
something hitting the bottom lines of giant retailers. Retail is a low profit
margin business; jewelry is a big part of it. And no jewelry would mean less
revenue for the retail giants. Does not sound good to the people with business
acumen.
5. Gold War would end
That’s a biggie.
Nations today are at war or war-like situation every now and then because of
the power. Oil and Gold are the two key elements that make one nation more
powerful than the other. If all the jewelry including fine jewelry is taken
away, the world banks would not be as powerful as they are today. So there
would be no rule, no war, and no power.
6. Conversations
Ever heard two women gossip. What do you think they talk about? Here are
a few picks – men, clothes, shows, kids, pets, and Jewelry. So if there is no trendy jewelry, women would have
less to talk about. Maybe they will need to talk about something else.
7. Looking good
While
all women are beautiful, some add zeal by fashion accessories they put on. No jewelry means just the basics. Every woman would need to look good purely on merit,
nothing external.

8. Get to work
early
Women
can reach early to work since they would save so much of time. There would be
no time needed for jewelry selection and putting them on and then cleaning them
and packing them and buying them and returning them. Yes returning them!!
So while there are pros and cons in a world without jewelry,
it’s very difficult to take this awesome creation away from women. What do you
think could be one crazy imagination of yours, of a world without jewelry?
