A solitaire necklace was my last obsession until I finally got it this past winter. I obsessed about it for almost a year though! Thread here with some pics for reference: http://forum.purseblog.com/the-jewelry-box/my-new-pendant-848665.htmlI really want a diamond soltiare necklace. That is hopefully my next purchase. I keep thinking about the Tifffany Atlas collection though so that might sidetrack me.
I absolutely adore it and wear it every single day. I layer it with everything. Not to be a total enabler (sorry, not sorry), but I think a solitaire pendant is a must have, and for the amount that I wear it and the way it adds beauty and sophistication to even the simplest outfits, I feel like it pays for itself pretty quickly. Mine is only a third of a ct and I feel like it is definitely big enough!
Now my obsession is finding the perfect white gold stacking ring. I have been meaning to buy myself one to start a stack on my right hand to commemorate a career milestone for months now. I've been scouring ebay and antique stores looking for the perfect vintage stacking band (preferably with diamonds, but I wouldn't turn my nose up at some beautiful art deco engraving either). Sometimes the search and the obsession is as much fun as actually getting what you want.
