Well, I have been dating my girlfriend for almost a year now and this is our first Christmas together. I was thinking about getting her a nice pair of diamond earrings, but I don’t know where to begin. Its been a while since I bought jewelry. Anyone have any recommendations on where to go, what weight to get, etc? I have no clue. I want to buy her something nice, but really don’t think I need to spend over $1000 since I am getting her a few other things also. Any ideas where to start? Thanks :bigok: ---

First you have to pick a carat weight that’ll look nice on here ears. BIgger than 1/2ct look stupid on my wife for example. After that, the price will be dictated by clarity as expected. Last time I looked 1/3ct were somewhere around $300 or so, so 1/2ct should be nearing 5hundy. ---

That’s what I meant, all jewelry. Tiffany’s is on the upper end of the scale though, I will agree with that. ---

Ok guys… im not getting married here… nice stuff at Tiffany’s is easily 2k and up. Plus I already got her one of those gay cheap charms she wanted a while ago from Tiffany’s its sitting in my room waiting for Christmas, so she is getting something from Tiffany’s already. The only reason I wanted to get her some nice earrings is because she has some cheap ass fake earrings she always wears and I think its gay, if you gonna wear jewelry, it better be real diamonds. A tennis bracelet would be nice also… any other ideas… ---

Tiffanys is a fucking JOKE…no way. A nice pair of earrings would be really nice… Check out the clark building they have a ton of deals… i just got an email for FROST Jewelers huge diamond earring sale… get a decent pair and i would say a nice diamond bracelet… i got one last year and i cant stop wearing it… Pay attention to what jewerly she wears the most… ---

yeah, im confused… here is a nice set from kay, the bracelet and the necklace , but its white and pink gold with little diamonds. [http://www.kay.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product1|10101|10001|-1|110692201|15064|15064.15123](http://www.kay.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product1%7C10101%7C10001%7C-1%7C110692201%7C15064%7C15064.15123) either that, or just a big diamond bracelet, or a pair of earings… ahhhhh this is so confusing!! :doh: She is a pretty simple girl, doesn’t wear much diamonds, but maybe thats because no one bought any for her :dunno: ---

Way overpriced to have the bragging factor. I bought my wife’s ring at frost and they have good prices and awesome customer service. I would start there and see what they have to offer…but keep in mind if you want something nice it aint gonna be cheap. ---

If she is simple go with the earrings… as you get to know her more you will know what she likes… a diamond bracelet for someone that is not into that could just be uncomfortable about wearing it and then its a complete waste… ---
