Thank you to everyone who helped with the diamond earring decision.  I chose the Whiteflash ACA stones......Tcw .766, F color, 1 is SI2, and the other is SI1...and everyone who said SI2 can be ok thanks...I can't tell the difference with my eyes.  The difference between the ACA and the non ACA was just a bit over $100 so I ditched the platinum mountings and did the ACA instead.  I really strongly considered G, SI2 pair I posted a few days ago, but they were just a bit more money than I wanted to spend even though they were a great deal for more carat weight.  I am no longer scared of SI2s!  My friends all told me I was nuts to buy diamond earrings when I have CZ's.  So, I wore my CZ's when I went to pick up the new diamond earrings.  Well, baby, CZ's just aren't diamonds. The new diamond earrings are amazing compared to the CZ's.  I'm thrilled.

Anyway, here is the picture that Whiteflash took for me! Thanks for all your help!

Wow, VERY beautiful!  I think SI2s are the way to go. I have a .83 ctw that are SI2s and I can't see a darn thing.  Not even with a loupe. 

Aren't diamond earrings so exciting?!  I always feel a bit more dressed up when I have sparklers in my ears, even if I'm just in jeans and a sweatshirt.  Congrats!

Thanks for the compliments.  And yes, the do dress up my jeans quite nicely :)

Well, these earrings were bought for my wedding in July so I will have them that day.  But I think I'm going to leave the earrings with my mom and just wear the CZs on my honeymoon.  I would notice for sure if one of my rings slipped off...earrings I'm not so sure so I won't take any chances!

Wow, they are beautiful!  Big and WHITE and ACAs to boot! 

Way to go on spending your money on the important Cs and saving a bit by the SI clarity.

Very nice earrings indeed.  Your setting is a bit different from the usual martini setting.  Did you ask for the extra metal behind the diamonds?

YUM...love the martinii setting, doesn't it make them look bigger on your ears?

Mine are .76tcw as well...love the size but of course I want bigger!

SI2 believer...now we just need to convert you from F to I.
