Dear Queenie,
When my mother died I inherited some jewelery from her.
Queenie, is it okay or me to wear it around relatives on her side of the family who are still in mourning?—Young heiress
Dear Heiress,
You can wear the jewellery on appropriate occasions and if anyone recognises it and comments about your wearing it, just tell them wearing it makes you feel closer to your mother even though she is gone.
