Diamond studs? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

makemepretty · 04-11-2008, 04:45 AM

Does anyone wear diamond studs on a daily basis? Is there such a thing as "too big"? Are they worth the investment? Anyone ever regret spending the money on real diamonds studs instead of wearing cz?

In order to keep me from looking at puppies all the time, I thought I'd start a little piggy bank for something else(says the person who's dead broke!) People who own yorkies tend to have good taste so I thought I'd ask.

I am a HUGE diamond fan; so I don't think there are any too big, as long as they look good. I also might want to suggest Diamonique on QVC; my mom once bought a 2 carat ring from there; brought it to the jeweler and asked to have it cleaned...they had NO idea it was fake, and complimented her over and over. The ring only cost her 99.00

OH yes, I had small diamond studs I wore in my 2nd holes daily, til I lost one. They were only 3/8th of a carat, they looked the perfect size for daily wear.... actually IMHO... diamond studs are perfect for ANYTHING! Jeans - Perfect! Evening gown - perfect! They just class up everything. Im going to buy another pair for myself if/when I ever sell my old wedding gown that I never wore! A little something nice for me for getting through my breakup with my ex-fiance! I was looking at 1/2 carat ones, princess cut in white gold or platinum.

My answer would have to be yes, as I wear 4 diamond studs on a a daily basis. One set is 1/4 carat and the other is 1/2 carat, which is about as big as I would wear......anything more and you almost can't see the ear lobe.

And, if you can afford it - go with real - I always say!

Oh and btw, I've worn these diamond studs now, on and off for about 6-8 years and never lost one.........Knock on wood!!

i've been wearing a diamond necklace and diamond earrings daily since the day i turned 13 . before that, i always stole my mommy's jewelry, so she decided to buy me diamonds of my own . and on special occasions, i wear the diamond ring she bought me, too =]

not sure if theres a size too big, but i honestly dont know how the sizes work =P

my2boyz · 04-11-2008, 05:40 AM

I wear 1/4 carat studs everyday, I'm small framed and they fit my size well plus they look good with gold hoops if I want to wear 2 pair for the day. I also have 1/2 carat and 1 carat studs but I don't wear them very often. I'm a huge diamond fan, but they have to be genuine...I wear them with jeans and for dressing up...diamonds go with everything now!

Nikki+2 · 04-11-2008, 05:49 AM

I wear 1 ct TW almost on a daily basis. They are the perfect size for everyday for me.

a2luckygirl · 04-11-2008, 06:22 AM

i have some smaller ones i wear everyday- just some sheapie ones- not near the quality of my diamond, but if I lose one- it is not going to be big $$ to replace!!
I wear them- 99.9 % of the time- with gold hoops, also!!

Get them!!!

ARCHIE · 04-11-2008, 06:55 AM

I wear 1ct tw on and off. I love them. They go with everything.
From formal wear to jeans.
I also have the same size in diamonique and you can't tell the difference,
IMO.

I got a pair last year from hubby for xmas. They are a half a carat and I love them. I wear them in my second hole. If you want something extravagant then get some. If you want something that you can get the look and not the price the Diamonique stuff at QVC is good.

Personally I would wear either. I love jewlery in all shapes and forms.

Lexi Rae · 04-11-2008, 08:02 AM

i wear mine all the time in my third ear hole.. they are sooooo small
you need a microscope to see them.. the other two i wear cz
i love diamonds. but have no need to put them in my ears, i guess because
my hair is sooo long you cant see them... and because i have cheap
boyfriends.

Tiggerwit · 04-11-2008, 08:16 AM

I have 1/2 ct. TW round that I wear frequently. I've had them almost 20 years now, never seem to go out of style.

Wylie's Mom · 04-11-2008, 08:46 AM

I don't think you can go wrong with studs, really. Plus, most stores allow you to "trade up" - so each year, you could (lovingly) force hubby to up-trade your studs until you reach the size you like best (as if).

For me, I must have a bit of a dangle - so, I have these circle diamond earrings instead of studs.

WundrWmn · 04-11-2008, 09:32 AM

I've lost so many of one.....down the drain.....just lost while toweling off and never finding it.....and on and on.....I still have one pair of about 1/2 carat but keep them in my jewelry box, and now buy 2 pair of CZs at a time....so when I lose one I can still have a pair.......
