Gypsy-did you ever get huggies?

[Cind11]

Hi Gypsy,

I was reading your thread back in December about the different huggies you were considering. And then I guess you decided to wait until Valentine''s Day.

I''ve been looking for huggies. I''m waiting to get a quote on some Memoire huggies/hoops from Pearlman''s. I also like the ones from Whiteflash that you mentioned in your thread, but the diamonds look so small I wonder if the earrings would be blingy enough. Did you ever buy any?

Cindy

I''m not Gypsy, but I did just get some of the .14 ctw huggies from Whiteflash. They are delicate and pretty but definitely not very blingy. The stones are so small that there''s not much fire from them. It''s mostly flash from the tables. It probably doesn''t help that I have to close them by pressing from both sides and the diamonds get fingerprints on them from the get-go. However, I like them a lot and I like how they can go from jeans to night-out.

Hi
Adelpated can you PLEASE show us some pictures of your huggies. I am seriously investigating some and any real pictures, esp ear shots give such a better perspecitve.

Thanks for your reply Addlepated. Besides the .14ctw. huggies, I got a quote from WF on KtIceRN''s fishtail pave huggies which I really like. I ended up contacting Maytal Hannah and I''m getting the huggies that are on her website. She made my engagement ring setting for me. The earrings will have 5 pt. stones in them so I hope they''ll end up looking fairly blingy.

Cindy, I don''t think Gypsy bought huggies yet.

Addlepated, could you please post pictures of your WF huggies? I''m interested in seeing pictures too!

 

[Addlepated]

I don''t have any pics offhand of just the huggies - I had them make drops for my emeralds to go with them. This thread has pictures and earshots and measurements, though.

Oh, Cindy! That sounds wonderful! Please post pictures when you get them!

Hi Diamondseeker,

When I get them, which should be in about three or four weeks, I will definitely take pics!

No Cindy, we booked a wedding instead. LOL.

I would recommend taking a look at these if you have a decent budget. They were my first choice, but out of my price range. Also, goodoldgold had some nice H&A huggies for under a 1000.

ETA: It pays to read the whole thread. I can't wait to see your hoops from Maytal!

Ha Ha Gypsy,

I would say a wedding would take precedence over earrings. Happy wedding!

 

[Gypsy]

Thank you honey. Happy Maytal earrings!
