I am thinking of getting some diamond studs lately also. Do you all feel like your studs go with "everything" - or do you change them out if you are wearing, say, yellow gold for a necklace??
I was thinking of getting a bezel set pair in 0.8 or so tcw.
i rarely wear earrings, when I do I wear my pearl studs. so I hope I would actually wear studs a lot.. Hmm.

Hi ladies,
I have a pair of 1.5ctw studs with jackets that I wear for nights out so I'm looking for a small everyday daytime pair - something under 1 ctw.
Do you think there's a significant difference between .8 and .7 ctw? Or the 1 ctw and .8? I have a good idea of what the 1ctw looks like as a basis for comparison and wondering if the .8 is noticeably smaller or if I should go for the .7?
Thanks in advance ladies!!!

i have studs that are 1ct total weight and think the .50 in each ear is the perfect every day size. mine are screw-backs and i wear them 24/7. this is the first pair of earrings i've ever been able to sleep in. i also have short hair, just a little below my ears so they aren't hard to see since i tuck my hair behind my ears a lot.
Mine are 1ctw and I love this size for everyday wear... They work perfectly for evenings out as well!
No, between a .7 and a .8 won't be a noticeable difference IMO. A .7 and a 1.0 will be noticeable.
OK, just ordered my diamond studs on bluenile. Can't wait for them to arrive!!

None. They're too deep and those angles don't go together. Check out the cheat sheet in the reference thread. The 2nd pair is better of the two, but neither should get your money.
I'd personally come down on clarity to a VS1, unless you have a strong reason for wanting studs that clean, like you'll use them later in a ring.

I have 3 ctw in a 3 prong martini with extra large screw backs. They're amazing, I steam clean them on Fridays and put them right back in. I have a lot of hair so thought I'd need bigger (and I did!) . But with studs you can go down a little in color and clarity, a good jeweler would recommend that actually.
