Smile Diamond Studs being a Staple in Every Wardrobe
This being said.. I finally did it yesterday.

I bought.. (well.. rather..laid-away) a 2.30 Carat pair of Diamond Studs.

G Color...pretty much flawless 1.15 points each diamond stud.. set in white gold... with screw-backs of course.

I can't wait to get them.. but needless to say.. I am a year away from having them sit in my ears.

I think this is the most classic piece of jewelry anyone can own.

.... I will wear them practically everyday.... and I know if by chance I ever needed to the money.. I could always sell them.

I just can't wait to get them now.. I am going to have lots of dreaming goin on in the next year.

Diamond studs are the most classic piece of jewelry! You can wear them every day for every occasion and always be appropriate.
I have a pair that are CZ, not real diamonds. One day I hope to buy the real thing like you.

I agree Diamond studs are a jewelry staple. I have a pair in white gold and then a larger pair (not big as in huge but a perfect size for me) in yellow gold and I wear one of them almost every day. Congrats one them, I'm sure you'll get tons of wear out of them once you get them home. :)

Are you still saving for your Cartier love bracelet?

I most definitely agree!

What I love most is that diamond studs look fabulous with everything.

When my 9 year old had her ears pierced in May, she followed my lead and chose diamond studs instead of her birthstone becuse, in her words, "Mommy. diamonds match everything".

haha. Ofcourse I am. But these cost more then the love bracelet.

... I am lucky that I have my own jeweler... that lets me lay things away and pay whenever I want.. whatever I want without tax. Its how I have aquired most of my pieces. So if I feel like putting down 100 bucks.. and not another 100 bucks for months.. he understands. I bought a bracelet a year and a half ago... and it took me 18 months to pay it off. But in the end I have a gorgeous piece.

This is just something secondary to my Cartier Love Bracelet...lol

oh wow, you did layaway, you will definately be so excited to get them after a year. i know you won't regret it because i agree that diamond studs are a must/staple in every wardrobe. i can't wait till a year later and have you post them up, that will be very exciting :) thanks for sharing your decision with us. i'm sure many of us agree with the choices in grades that you have made.
they also sound so big, 1.15 cts each, wow! can't wait to see them on you in the future.

congrats!!! sounds like you've got a great jeweler, i need to find one like your. the only piece of jewelery that i wear 24/7 are my diamond stud. they're screw backs, so i don't worry about loosing them. hopefully i'll be upgrading mine soon... i don't think any jewelery collection is complete w/o a pair.
