If you had $1000 to spend on a piece of jewelry, what would you get?
My anniversary is 4 months away. I have not talked to my husband about a specific piece or budget (but I am assuming it is around $1000 AND the past 2 years I have picked my own present). I already have 2 RHRs, so I don't think I want another one. Unless it is amazing I don't have any "real" jewelry except for my rings. I prefer diamonds to gemstones. I have found beautiful gemstone rings that I like, but since I don't love them, I would not pay $1000 for them.
I have looked at ID Jewelry Pre-Set Round earrings. The .90 is $795 and the 1.00 is $950 (J-K SI). I am not convinced that I would love diamond studs. I always wear a pair of CZ in my ears. I am not sure if I or anyone could tell the difference, since no one will get THAT close to my ears. I am not sure if it is worth the money to me. I think I would rather get something that I don't have anything similar to it (cz or not).
I am not as concerned with color/clarity for earrings, necklaces, bracelets. Especially if they are made up of small diamonds, I cannot tell the difference between VVS and SI if I can barely see the diamond.
I have also looked at this bangle from WF. I don't know how I feel about it, as I have NO idea how small the diamonds would look IRL on a wrist. I would rather have more ct wt than have "Color: F-G, Clarity: VS", but they do not offer a different carat/cut/clarity combo.

Any suggestions?
