Show Me Your Diamond Studs!

So, I’ve been stalking this thread for quite sometime. I expressed to my husband I really wanted some diamond studs. Well my birthday and anniversary is coming up and he’s deployed. Look what showed up in the mail today! These are 1.5 ctw...absolutely gorgeous! The paperwork says they’re color is I and clarity is I2. We are not diamond experts but I love them and they sparkle so beautifully! It’s hard to get a good picture. 455D64D8-F6AD-442E-B9F9-65BC3340F878.jpegD14C91D4-9DE7-4DDA-BEEC-178505B97467.jpeg

Impulsively I’ve been wanting another tattoo but settled for a new piercing, which of course led to a new pair of diamond studs. .35ctw vs next to my ACA studs. I really like the size of both pairs next to each other

Those are gorgeous

Thank you! I can’t take any credit for selecting them. My mother in law gave them to me because she doesn’t wear them any more. :)

Beautiful.
 
@mrs-b

it's a great look on you mrsb!! love your new oec studs!
 
@mrs-b I love your new OEC studs! Did you just get new piercings?
 
Thanks, @MamaBee! :wavey:

No - I had 3 piercings in my left ear by the time I was 19. I only have one in my right ear. I normally wear 2 earrings in my left ear and ignore the center piercing, but when I wear diamonds, I think the little curve up my lobe is pretty, so I go with three-plus-one. I don't like a mass of disconnected earrings, because I feel it looks messy, but I do like a little asymmetry. I got my 3 holes over 40 years ago, so it was pretty unusual back then.

I don't wear rings symmetrically on my hands, so I figure - why should I wear earrings symmetrically on my ears? Most often I wear hoops plus one diamond, or SS pearl studs, plus one diamond. For me, wearing all diamond studs is pretty unusual.

ETA I'll probably get jackets for the studs as well, so I can get a little more presence when I want it.

:wavey:Mrs-b They look lovely on you. If I wasn’t old I would consider adding a piercing!

@mrs-b love your drops :kiss2:

I would love to get some made for my studs!

Hi @lulu_ma - and thank you! :))

They're definitely a 'take you anywhere' kind of earring, and they jazz up a stud nicely. Pearl drops ae a staple and they never go out of style. I love them!
 
Oh please! I'm 60 and I rock my 4 piercings! No way are you too old! Have at it, if you want it!

Haha @mrs-b! I’m 66...I think I would like to add just one bitty diamond on one ear. I wouldn’t want to look like I joined a gang so I would have to make sure it was done on the correct ear! My kids would think I lost it! :lol:
I edited this to say I’m running it by my daughter-in-law. She’s a straight shooter! Haha

@Iola80 Sorry, i didn't mean to be so confusing in my earlier post...
There's the protektor and guardianII perhaps try protektor if guardian gives you trouble... just an idea...

I finally figured out how to get them on with ease.
