I deserve a treat. What do you guys think. Assuming they are as desrcibed, what's the opinion. They are a perfect size. I am just having trouble pricing hoops online....I"m in NY so could easily go and check them out...I was thinking I would treat myself to a Tod's bag but I'd wear these every day. I'm a stud or hoop kind of gal... 1 1/4 inches, 1.7ct Thanks! http://cgi.ebay.com/1-71CT-DIAMOND-HOOP-EARRINGS-IN-18KT-WHITE-GOLD_W0QQitemZ5018680883QQcategoryZ86062QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I'm too nervous to buy off ebay, but many do quite successfully. Those hoops look absolutely gorgeous! Go for it. I am a handbag gal too, but jewelry does last much longer.

They are beautiful but I know I would like the Tod's bag instead. :)

HI: I keep losing messages----uggghhh! Anyway, although I haven't been browsing ebay in ages, I always visit this vendor when I do--has really nice stuff (those earrings included) and a great feedback record. But new bags are always good too ....cheers--Shaon "People who possess great qualities, do not need to show off". |

My vote is to go for the hoops! They look awesome and what a bonus that you can go see them to be sure they are as good in person.Heather

I have real diamond hoops (present from ex) but I dont wear them often. I bought ones from QVC for a pirate frat party that are nearly ident but wear those more often just becuase they are a little lighter and the weight of the hoops bother my ears. That and I dont want saggy earring holes. I dont know if they still carry the ones I got since this was about three years ago. Simliair 135$ Channel Set 42$ Also spiffy 60$ It really depends what do you think you would use more often and for longer? Do you have another bag similair to the Tods one? Would you wear if often and for a long time? If you get the real earrings are you going to where them in five years? Sorry I dont think I am being much help at all.

Those are cute!!!! Hmmm. Part of me thinks I shouldn't buy either. I have no real need... As for the hoops...let me put it to you this way. I'm boring. I stick to a few good pieces.---- I actually have a pair of silver and cz hoops I got from Macys or something. I don't even take them off to sleep and in the shower. I think they are turning green LOL EWWWW. I have been wearing them every single freaking day for about a month now? LOL...(I've cleaned them like twice DOUBLE EWWWWW)....And when they go bad, I get the same exact ones and wear them again for a few months. I'm SO exciting As for the bag, I'd probably run it into the ground. This would be whopping bag #4 for me (I maybe have one or two others ... one dressy and a REALLY old coach bag) !!!! And yes ladies, they will drag the Hudson River to find me if Hubby finds out :) ______________________________ Stewart says: I'm good enough. I'm smart enough. And doggon'it, people like me. |

Have you looked at Kenneth Cole? I bought a large crimoson bag from them about three years ago...I use it as a book bag when I want to pass for a girl. It ihas help up really well. It came with a small matching purse and was....120$+tax. They also make it in black. Seriously I think perhaps you ought to take a day trip and go outlet shopping.

Love the hoops! I actually bought a diamond horseshoe necklace from 5th Ave Jewels/Deena about 3 years ago, it was pretty, sparkly and they were easy to work with. I never got it appraised or checked out or anything but it was only $300. Anyway...I have been thinking about hoops myself, another seller on eBay had some promising ones but if you can see these in person, go for it!! I would at least check them out. Oh and get the bag too. Mwahahhaa! ________________________________ |

Good to know! I don't reallky feel good about spending money LOL...so I'll sit on it. These just called my name :) Maybe hubby would split them with me? Fat chance I have that little 'who cares if they are real...just wear your czs' voice in my head. Same about the bag. Who cares. But at the same time, I want something!!! ![]() So I'll definitely get both- if you people tell me where I'm going to live from now on :) ______________________________ Stewart says: I'm good enough.

Oh, dear...my age and "out- of- it- ness" are showing! I'd never heard of Tod bags before. I just checked out the link and was SHOCKED at the pricetag!![]() I've never spent that much on a bag in my life...and I've been known to spend a bit on luxury items in the past... ... maybe I need to get out more...Anyway...get the hoops!

Hoops. Period. Done. There is nothing as fun as putting your hair in a fluffy ponytail and having those hoops swingin' from your lobes...that pair looks like a decent buy too...it's always risky on eBay but check out the feeback and see.... The bag is nice and classic and...boring! ![]() ![]() Hoops= Fun, Classic, Sparkly, 'Nuff said. PS I get at least 10 compliments every time I wear mine... ![]()
