Hey Everyone! I have been in the picture taking mood and thought since I posted my new yellow ring I would post the jewels I have accumulated this past year- I got these actually about 11 months ago- The diamond studs- I traded some smaller ones in on these - went from 2 something total weight to 5.12 set in platinum 4 prong baskets- They ROCK!!!! then..........I got these AWESOME hoops I think in February- They are 43 mm and 8.04 total weight- I am DONE buying jewelry - I think I said that last year??? I know its sick but yall understand!!!!!

OMG they are gorgeous earrings! Could you take some pictures of them on your ear? Do the diamonds in the hoop graduate in size? They look like they do in the 2nd pic you posted. They''re so huge

No, they are all the same size - just the way the photo was taken.....But here is an attempt at an ear shot............I do wear them both together - I have to wear the hoops in the second hole cause the first one is stretched out from years of wearing HUGE costume jewelry earrings when I was in jr high and high school- I just have always loved BIG JEWELRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beautiful pieces.

You didn''t by any chance wear your big costume jewelry IN THE 80s, did you?! I used to have the craziest, biggest earrings in the 80s.

Yes!!!! The 80''s it was- I had these hoops that I swear I could fit around my ankle and they had roses soldered on them and they were HEAVY- Then I had these things that were like frying pans with designs on them that had silver ball like things - kinda likea bellydancing scarf- but they were hanging off the frying pan part- Actually I still have all of them- Hey- We should start a thread- Ridiculous 80''S Jewelry!!!!!!!!!!

HOLY COW! They are fabulous! I can never carry that off even if I have the $$$$$ for them! And you wear it at the same time with your yellow diamond ring??? That is some serious celebrity-type bling! Do you have anything else to share with us?

I remember my beautiful friend Lisa had actually TORN HER EAR because of wearing too-heavy earrings. It had a permanent tear going right down to the bottom of the lobe! We used to wear the wildest earrings too. I guess I considered them to be artistic back then.

Anyway, still loving all your jewels. Glad you could share these with us!

Thank You Thank You Thank You!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOOOOOOVE the hoops-If you dont have a pair I highly reccommend them!!!!! They are awesome with long hair- Look soooo cute when you have a ponytail in- When I first got them I thought wearing both would be overkill but Im used to it now- Some guy the other day told me he thought my stuff was GAWDY- I just said- Well, GAWDY is good

Congratulations on the new earrings and wear them in good health!

I'm a collector, and I've gotten all sorts of comments over the years. A man once told me he thought something I was wearing was gaudy. I smiled at him and said "Then it's fortunate that you don't have to wear it or look at it." There's just no understanding what makes some poople tick.

I like that response! I will use that in the future cause I know its not the last time I will hear about my "gawdy jewelry". I used to get that with my 4.48 marquise. Come to think of it people told me that when I had a 1.70 marquise!!!!!!!!!!!!!
