Round or princess studs? Help me pick!

[ysj99]

Please help me decide, I am torn between getting a .75 ctw studs in round or princess. My e-ring is a 1.10 princess solitaire. I do love princesses, but I love rounds too. Do studs have to match the shape of the e-ring? Is there anyone here who mixes shapes?

Thanks all!!

I''d get rounds because they''ll sparkle more, look bigger for their size, and look better when dirty IMO.

I think it is fine to mix shapes and I too would pick round because they will be larger and sparkle more.

i agree with the others, i''d go for rounds.

I tried princess studs one time but didn''t like them because they were never lined up the same...one was square, the other a kite...ya know.
I ended up getting a pair on wires that have them always hanging point down.

I always thought I would go with rounds because they face up bigger, but there is a pair of gorgeous princess cuts on GOG that I am eyeing for earrings. They just look awesome.

I have to go with the majority vote on this one and suggest rounds; they face up larger and you never have to worry about adjusting them because they''re tilted different directions
Good luck which ever you decide

Thanks everyone for their replies. Do you think there is a preference for round studs because earlobes are more "round"? How have you "incorporated" your differently shaped diamonds? I guess I am thinking if I get a pair of round studs, maybe I can get a baguette-round band as a w-band to tie everything in? Anyone else out there that thinks about this too?
