Long term poster going Anon for this since I feel embarrassed
Need your advice / wise words as I'm beating myself up and feeling like I made a mistake. To give you a brief synopsis I decided to upgrade my studs a couple of months ago. The old pair was a beautiful 0.97tcw f/g color and I had been happy with them until I got a pendant that was a J. While my favorite ring is an I but with it being on my hand the color difference with the earrings didnt bother me ; however, I discovered that the difference between pendant and earrings did annoy me. Additionally I had been wanting a certain ratio between pendant and earrings and the pendant was bigger than originally planned. So I figured no problem, I'll upgrade the size of my studs a bit and downgrade the color to match my other diamonds
As you pricescopers know, Yekutiel is absolutely amazing at finding beautiful diamonds and he gave me full credit for my old ones ( they were IDJ studs). I was originally thinking 1.4tcw or a little over, and when trying ones on in the store I was tempted by the 1.6tcw but felt that bigger than that was too much. Yekutiel then found an absolutly amazingly cut pair in the colour and clarity I wanted but that were 1.81tcw. the cut was so stunning I couldnt stop looking at them and I ended up getting them. I wore them out the store and felt giddy at how sparkly they were. Unfortunately it didn't take long for me to start to feel uncomfortable at the size, it was just bigger than I had planned and with the minimal setting and how sparkly they are they just feel too much. My pendant is 0.45ct and my solitaire is 1.1ct and now these studs are 1.81tcw...
I now feel so guilty that just 12h after buying them I regret it, tried sleeping on it and showing my mother the next morning which I shouldn't have done as she thinks they are way to big.
Sorry that this became long and rambly, would really appreciate any advice / kind words on this
