Yes it makes sence. I didn't realise I left out the fact I was referring to diamond stud earrings. I'm 31 stay at home mum so I guess my overall style would be more on the smart casual side....I tend to like looks that can take me from day to night. So nice skinny jeans, cashmere sweater or a tshirt with blazer kind of look & almost everything i wear is with heels. Overall I like timeless stuff so I want earrings which will still look like a good size in 10 or 20 years from now if that makes sence. Hope this helps.

1.5 ctw...for me that's the ideal day to night size. I'm in my early 20's and I have a pair of F VVS2 0.92 ctw which is perfect for daytime but they don't necessarily "pop" for evening (especially with long hair). 1.5 ctw is my dream size!

I'm also a SAHM, I'm 33 and my daily diamond studs are 2 ct (each is 1 ct, im always confused when talking about earrings if you're supposed to refer to the ct weight as a pair or separately, sorry!) they are 3 prong martini setting and lovely for day and night wear

Can you post a pic for the OP?

Hi,
Also a SAHM and have diamond studs tcw just over 2carat, brilliant cut, six prong basket setting in platinum.
I upgraded from 1ctw princess cut and found my upgrade to be the perfect size for me.

Gorgeous, Chicmon! Nothing says it better then a pic!

I was going to say 2 tcw (1 ct per ear) but 1.5 tcw is a nice size, too.

Thank you! I think they are a good size, not over the top but stand out in a good way. Since I'm usually in very casual clothes because I'm always with my 2 little girls I like they dress me up and pull me together a little and add sparkle!

I think it depends on taste and also your lifestyle - I feel a bit conspicuous wearing larger studs in the day-time so I save my larger 0.50 carat studs for going out and I wear my F/VS1 0.30 carat studs during the day, which for me add the perfect amount of sparkle for everyday and allow me to add other jewellery like a diamond pendant, a bracelet etc together with my wedding set without being too OTT. I'm 32 and work part-time.

Hmm. I think this one is really personal preference. I wear my smaller studs, .70ctw for daytime and most nighttime too. I hardly ever wear my 1.5ctw during the day, they make me feel ott. But my big ones are princess cut, I might love them more and wear them more if they were round.
