Gorgeous on your ear...perfect size!I finally got my earrings
I was so excited and just wanted to post my pic of them to share. In the end I had upgraded again just slightly. So they are a 2.60 tcw. I'm not sure I'm 100% keen on the martini set. But for now this will do & I still can't help but admire them. I guess if it bothers me I can always change the setting to the other 1 I wanted!!! :s
I agree...also more light saturation/sparkle! Not as much metal as with a basket setting.
Also try elephant backs (ex-large backs) too. I have them with my studs/martini setting...the earring really sits well on the ear.

Congrats! They look great on you.
Has anyone in here have larger studs but like the 2nd pair for smaller size for different purpose? I have 2.5ctw and I wear it alot lately, I guess hanging out that this subforum encourgage me to wear more often.
Lately, I am considering a 2nd pair 1ctw or .75ctw when I work travel and could have studs jacket with it. Is that a significant in reducing in size? I used to have 1ctw but sold it to upgrade. My dh will think I am a nut job if I tell him.

I have a pair of princess cut about 2ctw and rounds that are larger. Not sure the exact size, they were both gifts. I also have a smaller round pair that was gifted to me as a teen, maybe .5ctw-.7ctw. The smaller pair were great for daily wear, but now find them too small. I wear the princess cuts daily, love them. When I don't want to worry about drawing attention, I still wear the small rounds. They would be great with jackets, actually.
I have 0.77 ctw round studs and they are the perfect size for me because I have small ear lobes. I thought I wanted around 1.5 ctw so I tried on 1.3 ctw but they were just too overwhelming on my ears.
Mine are .5 on each earring D/VVS1... I've had mine since I was 19 and wear them almost everyday and to sleep! They go from day to night and look fine. I get many compliments for them.
For my next earring set, I'm hoping to get some Cushion cut studs with diamonds all around too!

I have 2 pairs of studs - 4ctw and 1.5ctw. Ever since I bought the 4ctw pair, I haven't worn the 1.5ctw. The last time I wore them was about a year ago when I travelled to Europe. So nowadays, they just stay in my jewellery box.
Mine are quite a lot smaller than most of the ladies on here, but I love them. The total weight is 1.25 carats, so that's roughly .62 points per ear. They're a nice size as it goes, they have good presence on the ear. One day I'd like to upgrade to a carat per ear.....one day!
would u mind post pic on your lobes if that is not too much trouble? I have a small lobes too.
