thank you all for the comments:) just for reference, it's either the solitaire or the diamond band with earrings. i just went to the local jeweler today, the price between a 1.25 solitaire and a 7 stone 2.1 with a pair of 1.2 ctw earrings is the same. That's why I cant decide because the 7 stone isn't exactly small, and the 1.2 ctw studs are absolutely beautiful (together with the ring is a lot of bling

. However, a traditional solitaire looks really beautiful and formal, but I am only 20, I am not sure if it's a little too mature. So I am still thinking which is a better option.



If you're 20, I would definitely push the band. I was traveling this week and I wore my solitaire for fear of losing it at home while I was away, and I didn't particularly like the attention I got from wearing it. You know, it wasn't just gushing, but those uncomfortable 'why is your stone so big when you're so young' comments, especially in the academic setting I was in. I think a 2.1ctw 7 stone looks fabulous at any age!

how big is your solitaire OV

About the academic setting, that's so interesting, different groups of people have different taste in diamonds and their perception of it... I wonder why in an academic setting, a big diamond would receive negative looks while a sparkling band of smaller diamonds would seem more elegant?
