Which necklace?

[AllAboardTheBlingTrain]

I am actually considering a round brilliant in a halo too. But I felt like shaking things up and not playing it “too safe” I suppose? Ha!

If you want to shake it up a little but still keep it classic how about getting an emerald cut, east west, in a halo? You could get a classic round brilliant halo, or a baguette halo, or maybe a pear/marquis shaped halo to be even more “classic with a twist”.

If you are actually considering a solitaire pendant with or without a halo. I feel that's your best bet.

Ive had numerous of these types of fine jewelry fashiony type diamond /sapphire/ruby pendants and sure they are fun for awhile. but i haven't found them satisfying in a lasting manner. I am in the midst of finding a stone for a solitaire pendant.

Great ideas! I am eyeing that too! Here is an actual picture I found on instagram that I just saved.

Thanks for your input! That’s what I was thinking about, sure it’s fun now that I am in my 20s, but will I still like it down the road?

Have you checked out the Whiteflash pendants?
I have the small XO and love it. Also they have a simple flower that is sophisticated.
I believe all their necklances are ACA diamonds. My pendant is small but mighty. : )

the good thing is you can always layer your pendants and it feels more personalized depending upon how and what you layer, if you like that type of look. I enjoy all the different pendants i have but its time for a solitaire. But know that a single diamond will likely be pricier than the options you showed.

Got some actual pictures and oddly leaning towards the butterfly for some reason.

I think it looks very pretty on you.

I like the heart and it's definitely timeless.

@ean

in real life images, the butterfly is just WOW! those baguettes and round diamonds are so nice together in that shape.

the butterfly was my first choice until i reread you roriginal post and noticed that the flower was a 9.5mm while the rest is 6.5mm (hope it wasnt a typo)

They butterfly also appears much more dynamic suggesting movement and life.

Are you into the symbolism of what a butterfly represents??

were you able to get an image of the flower shape??

I sense you favor this type of pendant over a solitaire pendant. which i can completely relate to an understnad!

I wouldn’t do a solitaire I have had several and non get noticed nor compliments I like your options much better, it can become a signature piece.

The butterfly is truly gorgeous in real life photos and videos, it almost looks as though it’s going to flap its wings. Unfortunately, I have no real life photos of the flower.

I will get my solitaire someday, when I am able to afford something a little more substantial!

I figured since it is a present for myself I should pick the one that speaks most to me.I can get a heart from my husband in the future which will make it more meaningful. I placed the order this morning! Should be here in 2-8 weeks!

 

[Big Fat Facets]

Good for you @ean !!! Im so happy you chose what spoke to you. Its nice to get opinions BUT you are the one that must wear it and and see it on yourself. And each time you catch a glance at it you will be smiling.

Please post lots of images so that we can share in your joy!!
In the future you may or may not desire a solitaire pendant...its so very individual. But we live in the "now"...
