It was ME ME ME!!! Those are SAH-weet!! I wonder how they'd look with the edges milgrained?? Hmmmmmm Hmmmmmm. I keep flip-flopping between wanting bezel-set studs or huggie hoops for my first pair of "real" (post-new-piercing YAY) earrings.
DS mine are 14 kt. white gold and they are just as shiny and white today as the day that I bought them. And before I got my new studs I wore them alot. I would choose white gold for earrings again anytime.Date: 9/21/2007 4:39:32 PM

You're welcome, Deco! Now I remember it was you asking!
Hmmm, I think I might want bezel studs first because you could really wear those all the time. All I EVER wear now are 1' sterling hoops or my studs. So all I'd really like to have is a pair of huggies, possibly a smaller bezel pair (love those handmade ones), and maybe some plain wg 1' hoops. I think those would meet all my needs!
I absolutely love milgrain, and considering your ring, deco, I'd ask WF about the milgrain idea. My rings, at the present time, are not milgrain, so my tendency would be to get them plain. I just wish I could have a complete antique set of jewelry and a simple, Tiffany inspired set (including the bezel DBY pieces). I don't ask for much, do I?
Sundial, are yours wg? I am trying to decide whether to go with wg or platinum on these and the DBY pieces. I really care more about durability, staying shiny, and lasting forever, moreso than the price. I think wg will stay shinier, but I wonder if other pieces (other than rings) will last as long in wg as platinum?
Well, it was earlier in the month. I decided to skip it and stay the same age another year.Date: 9/21/2007 7:23:28 PM

Edited to add: And just when IS your birthday DS? Isn''t it around this time???
I hear you on the small town thing! I am fortunate to have a good local jeweler for some things, but I do try to take advantage when we travel to larger cities. Watches are definitely something you need to see and try on your wrist. I am thinking about getting another watch for Christmas myself and it was very helpful to see some in person while I was in Houston visiting my mom last week. What I thought I wanted I ended up not liking. I agree that you would be pretty safe with the huggie earrings though.
