mine are 1.5 total weight. i used to wear them all the time, but i got a pair of vintage diamond earrings (not simple studs) that i have been wearing. i also have a pair of small diamond hoops that i really like, too. i wear those in the summer, more so.

my brother's gf has a pair of diamond earrings that are tiny- teeny tiny- and i LOVE them. they glitter on her ears like stars. i just think they are gorgeous.
 
I'm a terrible photographer, but these should give you the idea, Swanky. I love how they nestle in the ear.

this is what i have to!! my jeweler also called it 'martini' setting. i was sure i'd want a 4-prong setting, but then i saw these settings in the shop and thought they made the diamond look even larger, so i had my stone set with the 3-prong instead.
 
my daily wear are 2ctw but am looking for 4-5ctw
i also have .75 ctw from my mom years ago as my first pair
and a 1ctw which look better with several diamond earring jackets i own
 
I wear 2 pair. A 1ctw G SI1 GIA Cert and a .25ctw - I think - don't know the specs on these.
I would like to upgrade the smaller pair for a 2ctw though and wear the 1 and 2 together.
 
are your earrings set in 4 prong or 3 prongs.. and why do you prefer the setting you guys have?? i've heard that sometimes one of the settings makes the diamond studs half off the ear?? can't remember which one...

mine are both 4 prong with screwbacks. I wear them all the time except to clean them so I prefer the screwbacks. I have never tried the martini's but they sure look pretty.
