Okay... no one laugh!
I''ve been wanting to get my ears pierced lately but I want to get myself a pair of diamond studs before I "do it" so I can put those in from the start... also, if I spend the money on earrings it will force me to go through with it and not chicken out. So, I''ve been shopping around at local stores to get an idea of size but most jewelers say to stay UNDER .5ct each for daily wear. I''ve been looking and think that something around .6-.75 is better looking. I have large lobes but obviously don''t know exactly how they''ll look because my ears aren''t pierced... yet!
So, I''m thinking of a pair of 1.3-1.5tcw in three prong martini settings. I have a 1.3ct pendant that I sometimes wear and various diamond rings ranging from 1ct-2.25cttw.
I''ve searched for ear pictures but haven''t found any... most are in the .3 range. Will it look tacky and fake? Be honest... I''m young and tend to wear minimal jewelry but big jewelry.
Thoughts? Pictures? Ideas??
Thanks!
