Everywhere I've heard the term used it is referring to some article(s) of clothing that shine, for example, gold, diamonds, etc. It can refer to rings, earrings, necklaces, and non-jewelry items such as car rims and such things.

Answer 2

diamond, jewlry, watches, shiny jewlry basicly. bling bling was the name of a rap song in 1999 by rapper juvenile and hot boys.
