So… I have three milestones (or at least I’m considering them as such) coming this winter and spring. I’m turning 25 and also finishing my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Science (Tech.). I’ve studying for this for six years now and worked most of that time so I’m graduating not only with zero student debt (university tuition is free here in Finland so that helps :lol: ) but with a nest egg for my future endeavours.

I wanted to have something that can be worn with both jeans and cocktail dress, which - in time - led me developing a serious itch for a bezel pendant. I contacted some vendors including WF and did some serious comparisons pricewise since the import tax and our hefty VAT have a major influence to prices when ordering something outside Europe.

WF had to best price for what I wanted and I worked with Liza to get what I was looking for. She and all the people at WF are amazing to work with!! I ended up purchasing a J VS2 0.403ct WF ACA! :love:

I’ve been ogling the stunning pendants PSers have and I love the milgrained pendants but also like the clean, modern edges of a basic bezel and when spotting k9muttlovers pendant by Quest I knew how to incorporate both of the looks. I’m super-allergic to nickel so Liza recommended platinum so the setting is a semi-custom platinum setting. I requested for 20” chain with a loop at 18” because I feel mildly choked with 16” chains.

WF is going to send this beauty to me on Monday! I’m so excited! :appl:

Ally66: I already love it! I've waited for this for so long both the milestones and the pendant! :lol:

Ashleigh: Thank you, Ashleigh! :wavey:

Pregcurious: I wanted a piece with this much emotional significance to be done by someone who really knows what they're doing. I sure WF will deliver! :)
 
It's here! It's here! It's here!

And it's soooo sparkly and the bezel is so dainty! :love: :love: :love:

I'll try to be a good PSer and take pics tomorrow (today is such a gloomy day that I won't even try).
 
Congratulations on all your accomplishments! You have a great head on your shoulders! Welcome to the ACA club, you will never buy anything else :love:
 
Thank you, AprilBaby! This pendant is both a memento and a reward for myself of all of these amazing years.

I think you're right about once getting an ACA... I'm not even wearing the pendant right now because I can't stop staring it!! :lol:
 
This day fortunately wasn't as gloomy as yesterday so I got a few pics. Too bad the only camera I have is my phone so quality is just craptastic.

Taking pics of diamonds is so hard! :rolleyes: I really have to practice that!

Here is a group shot of my ACA and .25ctw preset JA studs. When comparing them you really can see the difference in cut!

Gorgeous pendant!! Congratulations on your education and turning 25 - diamonds are always the "perfect" way to celebrate ANY life event, don't you think?? :bigsmile:

I love the milgraining on your pendant - it adds just that little bit of detail to really finish off the look --- well done!
 
woofmama - Thank you! That means a lot since you have an amazing taste... after all you are wearing my all time favourite wedding set in PS. :love:

Enerchi - I could not agree more! :naughty: I think this was a wake-up call to my poor FI that he really is marrying a jewelry nut... and my next project is my wedding ring. ;)
 
I love it!! :love: Looks SOOO pretty on you...congrats on all of your accomplishments, I am very impressed! :appl:
