What have you bought recently?

[chappy]

I absolutely love the classic Tiffany solitaire. What carat size is it? Please post pictures once you receive it.

It's half carats, the size my husband likes the most on me. Oh I will definitely be posting lots of pictures once it arrives!

I bought Lucy today. She’s a 1.15ct H-SI1 OEC and I love her. She’s my first OEC.

What about pimp???

What about pimp???

Careful careful... pimp carries a pimp cane. That's why my memory is so selective!

Meet Hope!

This little birdie came to me from an art fair today. I’ve been eyeing her and the rest of her flock for years, but I decided that this year I was finally going to get one. There are several versions (oxidized, all silver, rose gold... ) and even though I tried them ALLLLL on, this is the one that spoke to me. I’m having a ton of fun right now going through my jewelry box and stacking with different bands.

ETA: WOAH! My had is so big and scary in that last pic -- sorry!!!

This is so beautiful! Does the vendor have a website? You find the best indie vendors! Harriet's hides now this beautiful bird ring!

She makes other things too that don't have birds on them. I tried on a gorgeous blue moonstone ring yesterday that i had to talk myself out of buying! And I just LOVE the pendant, but someone else was also eyeing it pretty seriously and I got the feeling they would wear it a lot more than I would (she had on another artsy cool necklace and I could tell in talking with her that she wore pendants every day, which I rarely do). This little bird is not awkward or uncomfortable BTW. I mean, I probably wouldn't wear it to clean the bathroom, but I did have it on all day while I was out and all night at home, and I didn't notice it at all.

ETA: Her prices are very reasonable. The gold birds are about $575ish and the silver ones are about $250ish (I don't remember the exact amounts). The stackers are also reasonable; the ones without stones started in the twos, and the one I have on with the tiny diamond between the bird and my rolling rig was I think three something.

GET IT GIRL! Love your boots. I hope you wear them every day....or at least when you want to feel extra sassy. I always put my boots on on days when I feel like a need extra oomph. Like a shot of whisky without the calories.

Ahhh DeeJay- I think the beauty is in the stack. I would’ve saw the bird and thought, oh that’s cute!- and not given it a second thought. All together it is lovely. I have no layering skills though, either in jewelery or clothes!

Liar, liar, pants on fire! Your turquoise jewelry will go very nicely with your new boots!

Charming ring, @Dee*Jay !

This purchase is from a few months back but just got to posting it. 3.2ctw of polki & grey diamonds. Not bad for under $600! Setting is sterling silver with gold wash. The details are quite nice for the price.

I was lucky enough to score this fabulous Beverly K band from Asscher Halo Lover! Second photo is with her new sister, a bezel remake of my eternity band by WF.

The little birds are so sweet!

I just bought this beautiful antique five stone ring. It's 18k gold with .75 tcw of OEC diamonds. The center is .5c. The ring is super sparkly--the diamonds are all EF/G, VS2/SI. I love it!

 

[DiaDiva]

Bought these yesterday. The diamonds are small but I love how they swing as I turn my head.

 

[DiaDiva]

Bought these yesterday too. 22k gold. It was my mum's birthday but she passed away on 17 February and I just distracted myself with mindless buying.

 

[icy_jade]

This! Online purchase so I hope it’s nice irl.

 

[ZestfullyBling]

This and a Pair of .58ct K's to go with it

 

[JPie]

Nothing extravagant, but I’ve been wanting a dendritic agate ring and this one fit the bill!

 

[Lisa Loves Shiny]

I am on a jewelry ban. But when this platinum/diamond band (5.4 grams platinum) showed up at $50 over scrap I could not resist. Love the engraving and sparkly diamonds. Jeweler fixed the broken prongs on last diamond but slight gap still shows up on photos, less in real life.

Wow, this is chic and most outstanding! And at a fabulous price too!

@DiaDiva, I'm so sorry for your loss and I hope you feel a bit better now. I love your recent purchases. And these earrings look like a beautiful crochet of gold lace!

 

[Sparkle_ruckle]

I really wanted some emeralds last Xmas, but it had been rather tricky purchasing them, due to the difficulty in gauging its colour, clarity and treatment over online purchases. But I finally picked up these glowy studs recently! They go very well with my preexisting earring jackets. Both pieces are from Yvonne Raley.

Thanks for the share! I'm absolutely enamoured with these whimsical beauties!

Thanks! Love your new studs and those earring jackets are so pretty!

1.5 ctw 5 stone from IDJ. Should be here in two weeks!

Thank you for liking them! They are very simple studs but I do love the quality of the emeralds.

I bought @redwood66 French Cut Diamond eternity
Here it is stacked with my sapphire eternity band and my sapphire halo. It's a lot of ring, I know, but I am just trying it out like this. I will probably find it too much and wear it without the sapphire eternity, but I hate to leave a ring unworn...I'm funny that way. Here it is also without the sapphire eternity.
