Bling Bling! 15 Carat Diamond Necklace - POLL!

[LoveMeDo]

Hi friends! I just bought this gorgeous diamond necklace to commemorate a big birthday. It was not inexpensive, and I’m now wondering if it’s justified. I purchased it with the intention of wearing it daily, but now I’m not sure if it’s just too blingy for daily wear. I like to be fabulous but this feels...erm...very fabulous.

I still want to wear my diamond rings and don’t want it to be TOO much. I’ve never worn a necklace like this so maybe I need to get used to the bling so close to my face??

Here are some pics, and would love to see your votes!!

It looks so beautiful on you. I don’t think it is too much....I think you just need to wear it for a few days to get used to the extra blink.

Omg I love it!! I think “too much” depends on your aesthetic and how much you dress it up or down. I think you can make it work for everyday!

 

[Dandi]

I love love LOVE it!! It looks absolutely amazing on you! I adore nothing more than the look of just a few substantial pieces worn together, rather than layering/stacking smaller pieces. This with your stunning emerald cut would be perfection Happy Birthday to you!

This is absolutely beautiful. I would keep it as it is a great way to have something so memorable as a "big birthday." Is it a daily piece? Depending on your job, daily activities...etc.. To me, it feels like it might be too much for every day wear. I see it as an evening piece.

It’s gorgeous but in my area yes it would be out of place for daily wear but I would totally rock it when going out to dinner or events.

Oh happy birthday - what a fabulous way to celebrate. It's absolutely gorgeous and if you feel completely comfortable with wearing it, then for sure it's a daily piece. I would wear it everyday.

I don't think it's too blingy for daily wear. I would totally wear it with my jeans and converse as equally as I would wear it for an important event. However, I wear my bling to the barn daily so I could be the wrong person to ask. Lol. It is beautiful! Enjoy it!

Completely agree with you, a classic white button down shirt, linen shirt, a diamond necklace can be very flexible.

Looks so pretty on you and I love the yellow gold! I think it classes up any outfit for sure, but the interpretation of "too blingy" I suppose depends on your day-to-day lifestyle.

Why not???? If you like it, wear it!! We only live once and if this beautiful necklace makes you feel happy, then I say go for it. Enjoy, looks lovely on you.

 

[LilAlex]

I say just wear it. The lack of a central focal point makes it more versatile imo.

Reminds me a little of the VCA snowflake one (?) that someone here modeled (very effectively, IIRC) not too long ago.

 

[LoveMeDo]

Wow thanks everyone! I really appreciate the feedback!

We’re at a 50/50 split so far...this is a tough one!! My husband was a fan until he saw it explode into fireworks under the kitchen lights... which made him think it might be a bit much.

I’m going to have to try it on with some dressier, or more professional clothes tomorrow. Here it is paired with my bathrobe...aka the perfect outfit. Ha!!!

 

[Ally T]

Definitely keep it! It's gorgeous on you!

You can wear the same perfect outfit to a fancy restaurant for dinner. Congrats, Beautiful necklace!

Hi friends! I just bought this gorgeous diamond necklace to commemorate a big birthday.

How BIG??

 

[fussykiki]

Gorgeous necklace on you! Congratulations!

 

[missy]

@LoveMeDo, I think it is perfect for daily wear. You can carry this off and in fact you rock the look. Enjoy your gorgeous blingtastic necklace in good health and blingy joy!

 

[rcjtraveler]

Happy Birthday! I love it. Looks beautiful on you. I would definitely keep it even if not worn daily. Enjoy and wear this gorgeous necklace in good health.

 

[Rhd3]

Be still my heart. Absolutely stunning! I think there are ways to style this for daily wear. It’s the perfect length and would work with so many necklines. You’ll find what works for you with time.

 

[lulu_ma]

The necklace looks gorgeous on you! I’m totally a fan of everyday diamond necklaces. I do think that the three row style reads a bit more dressy than casual.

 

[Austina]

Wear it and enjoy, if the last year has taught us anything, it’s that you should just do it! It’s looks fantastic on you.

 

[Tayberry]

This is actually really helpful generally to see clothing and jewelry and what makes sense on a day to day basis

 

[Lisa Loves Shiny]

Feeling comfortable with your jewelry is really just a state of mind IMHO. I wouldn't let other people's state of mind influence you on what you should wear. It's beautiful. Too much for me, but then again I sometimes wear a lot of pearls which might be too much for you. And let's not forget- the necklace is gorgeous.

 

[icy_jade]

I’m one of those who thought it’s not such a casual wear item since it wouldn’t be a casual wear item where I am located, but honestly if you can wear it and rock it I say go ahead. It really does vary depending on where you stay and how your circle of family and friends dress right? If everyone is decked out, then I think you are fine. It’s beautiful so please enjoy it!

Thank you! It also has a removable section that turns it into more of a choker length which is pretty cool too!

 

[Mreader]

As others have said it depends on your own comfort level I think it could go either way. I think for me an everyday wear would be a long tennis diamond type of necklace. But I still think that this can work with white button down shirt black tag etc. etc. It’s gorgeous!

 

[Tartansparkles]

It is gorgeous, wear it and enjoy it!

 

[Ionysis]

I’d wear daily for work, without a doubt.
