Advice on every day diamond stud earrings

[samantharini]

Hi everyone

I would like to purchase my first pair of diamond stud earrings for every day use. I researched sizes and for my ear lobes, I think something between 0.5-0.6 carats each ( total carat wt is 1-1.2) is ideal. Additional criteria would be H / I / J with clarity SI1 or 2 (eye clean) and cut is excellent.

I checked out stones on Whiteflash but there aren’t any thing suitable within my size and budget. I emailed James Allen and was recommended these 3 pairs

What do you guys think of these pairs? Should I wait out on Whiteflash due to their flexible upgrade policy or just purchase one from James Allen?

What is the budget? There seem to be several pairs within your colour and clarity parameters on Whiteflash, although they cost more than the JA pairs, here’s the least expensive pair at $2806 (J VS2). I’d go for Whiteflash, personally.

Edit: Brian Gavin have matched pairs too, here are a J and K for $2616, they have 10% off Signature diamonds at the moment for Valentine’s Day, it’s not clear if this applies to pairs but no harm in asking, I guess!
