Oddly enough I have been going through a similar studs journey and will be posting about that before long, but suffice it to say that I understand all of this all too well and I am so very happy for you! Thank you for sharing your new beauties with us!
I'm late to the party but these upgraded studs look absolutely fabulous on you, @diamondseeker2006 !
They are the perfect compliment to your new VC ER! I think you started a WF studs upgrade trend on PS recently!
May you and your granddaughters enjoy wearing them for many years to come!
Oh my gosh, your new studs are absolutely gorgeous and they are so stunning on you, @diamondseeker2006! I love the settings you chose, and they are so flattering on your ears... truly the perfect size!
but you already know all of that!! So what I’ll say instead is that I’m so glad you’re letting yourself indulge in what makes YOU happiest. “Good enough” is good enough for a while, but eventually “good enough” just isn’t good enough any more! I know that for someone who appreciates detail as you do - forever stones and forever settings hold really inimitable satisfaction 
This thread makes me happy
I know that feeling... When you open the box and you think to yourself - “This is how this is supposed to be”. That sense of contentment. 2021 is turning out to be your year of contentment
Your new studs are beautiful and fabulously large and fabulously larger than your old pair and fabulously white
I can’t wait to see them one day!!!!
Yes, real life friends, for sure!Our styles might differ in some ways but I feel like I can pretty much always look at something and think “DS would like this” - and I love that!! My PS friends are my real world friends too
And I know for fact that your collection ain’t nothin’ to sneeze at!! I want some updated collection photos
Thank you!! I remembered that you live in Houston! It would be a little dangerous to have them nearby!!! But on the other hand, it would help me so much, at times, to try things on before ordering! Take some bling pictures for us if you go!
I forgot to say in the first post that I was concerned about the color in photos I saw of the stones, but when I opened the box, all I saw was white sparkles!!! These are photogenic babies because I have zero ability with iPhone photography!
Oh, and great job on the prongs, WF!
So...in 2017 I bought my final pair of ACA studs (about 2.55 ctw)!!! However, I didn't know at the time they weren't final!
First is the WF glamour shot, in the box, ear shot, and the setting. My own floral glamour shots to follow.
Thank you, @idealw2boys ! The settings are similar to the ones Tiffany uses. I didn't want my stones set too high, and these are lower profile than the standard 4 prong settings. They are not custom, but WF special-ordered them for me. In an earlier upgrade, I had asked if they could find lower profile settings, and they found these through Sasha Primak. So I have used these a couple of times and think they are very nice quality. They have mentioned seeing if they can stock them which I think would be a wonderful addition!
Hi, @Natylad ! Thank you so much! Nooo, these are the last pair unless I decide to downsize!
You are so sweet! I am getting old, so plenty of wrinkles from laughter and a blessed life! A little hair color helps, too!Thank you, Holly!
Thanks, Heidi! I actually do not have jackets, but if I did have some for my last studs, these wouldn't fit anyway. The size of these is as large as I'd wear, so I doubt I'll get jackets for these! I do hope it won't be long before you can get yours!
Thanks!!! I honestly do think G or H would be totally fine. As you know, I was all worried about one being higher H than the otherLove these pics. Based on your earrings, I think I would be happy going with Hs.
, but I can't see it at all! They both look nice and bright, and I think they could be worn with any color diamond ring since they aren't right next to each other! Thank you!
I am so happy to be your diamond stud twin! I always loved the size, and finally I made it!
It's always fun to think about projects together, and yes, maybe bracelets can be next! I am excited about your current project in the meantime!
Thanks so much!
Aww, thank you!!! It took me over 15 years to get to these, so do keep dreaming!
Thank you so much for those sweet comments! I don't wear a lot at a time, that's for sure! The earrings and the AVR ring are usually the only diamonds I wear when I wear both! I am just starting to get used to the size of both of those! It has been a good year to get my most worn pieces finalized!Your new stud earrings are absolutely gorgeous and what a great addition. Gosh, if I ever saw you IRL wearing your stunning jewelry collection, I would be so awestruck (and blinded by the incredible sparkle)! You have had an incredible year so far!
Thanks so much! I honestly am a little surprised with the size increase when I pass by a mirror! My former self would be exchanging them for smaller ones, but then I'd likely get DSS and end up back at this size eventually!
Thanks so much, Queenie! Good to "see" you! Hope all is well!
Thank you, Heidi! I truly hope that yours will be a reality in the near future! I do think you need this size since it was the size your dear mother had to wear with her ring that you now have!
