Brian Gavin Preset Halo Studs have arrived!!!!

[lizzyann]

Thanks for the feedback! I was thinking not to upgrade at that size as well. It is weird because that ring is on LOGR like 3 times as a buy it now or make an offer. two have the same BIN cost and one has a lower one by over $100. How much haggling can you do? Lauren the partier seems to have gotten a great price on hers so I know there must be some wiggle room there.

I finally found the thread!!

Even better than I imagined. I love them and they look sooooooo big!!!!


Now I am excited to see your new creation, the pendant. Woooohooooo!

 

[lizzyann]

Thanks Susi! I am glad you found it. I love the earrings! I am actually on PS right now searching for pendant ideas to send BGD. I am also debating on doing a halo rhr from LOGR instead of the pendant but I already have a three stone rhr that I absolutely adore so I think the pendant would be the way to go. What do you think?

 

[geckodani]

They look great!

Get the pendant!! For sure. It would make a fabulous set. Plus that 3 stone needs to be seen daily!!!!

I think that will be my next diamond purchase too, whilst saving up for a solitaire upgrade!!!

 

[lizzyann]

Thanks susi, i am sticking with the pendant. i got sidetracked from all of the searching on ps. I''m hoping your pics are up now. I am going to check!

 

[iheartbora]

Lovely!!! Do you think you can post a side view ear shot? Seriously considering these sparkles... I wonder how long the ''special offer'' will go for...

 

[PumpkinPie]

Can't wait!! Thanks lizzyann! The more the merrier!!! LOL

 

[lizzyann]

Iheartbora, I couldn''t pull off taking a sideview earshot as my hubby wasn''t around to take the photo for me while taking these shots. Hope the shots I got help you make your decision!

I love these!! My reasoning on getting these is that I already own a .5cttw set of studs (no halo) that I never wear because I feel they look small on me. I am used to a larger ear presence as I like to wear my pearls or silver ball 8mm studs. So I knew that I would only be happy with a 1cttw set of studs but they didn''t fit into the budget! So I had to make a decision. I could either invest the $600 into somewhere around a .6cttw set of studs from BGD or WF that are upgradeable or buy these BGD halo studs. I opted for the halo studs because I knew that if I bought the .6cttw studs they wouldn''t be much larger than the studs I already owned and would end up not wearing them till I could afford to upgrade again. So nevertheless, I bought the halo studs. They have a large ear presence, are super sparkly, and I get a ton of compliments on them!

Thanks again for posting more pics! I''m kind of in the same boat...want some noticeable studs but don''t really feel like spending on a 1cttw set! Plus, it matches with my ering, which is also a halo

. On BGD''s site, he said it measures about 6.5mm, which should look pretty big on me since I don''t have huge ear lobes. I''m guessing with a bit of distance, the halo will sort of blend-in with the center stone but still shimmery and sparkly?

 

[lizzyann]

Yes, the halo blends. My husband always tells me that they look huge in my ears. In the up close pics, you can see a lot of the prongs. But I will tell you that in real life, you can''t even notice them. They just blend right in. You will be happy with them, totally worth it and a value!

 

[luckyme502]

They are beautiful!

 

[bleeblue]

Hi Lizzy, I''ve just pulled the pin and ordered these as well after seeing this threat and ilovethiswebsite''s thread.

I only noticed that they aren''t BG siganture meelee AFTER I ordered them. Could you let me know if the diamonds used are cut well and eye clean?

(i''m feeling a bit of buyers remorse now and I''m hopping you can put my mind at ease a bit)

 

[lizzyann]

Hi bleeblue! Don''t have buyers remorse at all. I promise you will love them! They are eye clean and quite sparkly. The center diamond is .15 and the melee are .01. The melee are small but give off a nice sparkle. I wear mine daily and get tons of compliments. If they were dead and lifeless I would have returned them, trust me.

My pics don''t do them justice as i am not good at capturing fire! Super pretty!

 

[SparkleNut]

These earrings are amazing and they look HUGE!

You must do the pendant next so you will have the set. They look so sparkly to. Congratulations and wear them Daily.

 

[lizzyann]

Thanks Sparklenut! I really love these earrings and am still keeping an eye out for a pendant to match. I am working on a bracelet project right now and hopefully will have it soon! Congrats on your new 2 carat round! It is GORGEOUS!!!

 

[blingmyring]

Oh Lizzy, I don''t know if I''ve already commented on your earrings but I just wanted to say that they''re BEAUTIFUL !!! Wear them in good health. When you get a chance, would you mind measuring them to let us know how big they actually are in mm? Thanks so much.

 

[lizzyann]

Hi Blingmyring, I don''t have a very good measuring tool but I did my best and I''d say they are 5.5mm. They look slightly larger than a .5 carat stone that I have if that helps!

 

[tigian]

Those earrings are soooooo pretty on you!

Hi Lizzy, Thanks for measuring; the information was very helpful. I was wondering if they would be larger than my 1ctw studs. I think I would need to get a bigger pair from BGD to make a noticeable difference from what I wear today. Thanks again +

They are gorgeous and they look huge
