Seriously..way too small

NO…. thats wayyyyy to small

Regardless of whether they are 1/5 ct total weight or per stud, they are going to be VERY small.

1/2 carat total weight (each stud is 1/4 carat) is about as small as I would go.

They will probably be about 3mm across. It all depends on your gf’s style. Some girls like very small jewelry that is genuine. If your gf has the tendency to wear chunky jewelry this may not be for her.

1/4 ct is probably is as small as you would want to go.

those are fine. if you can though, 1/4 are much better!!! i personally think 1/2 is way too big! shell look like she belongs in a ghetto music video

Very small. If you can’t afford something larger, buy her a nice pair of Diamonique (found on QVC). Let her know that when you can buy her the real thing, you’ll do it. Until then, she’ll love these. I have real and fake diamonds and I wear them at the same time. Can’t tell the difference.

That is really teeny, but how long you have been seeing your gf and your age and income should also factor into it.

My husband started out getting me 1/4 ct. diamond studs in white gold at a jewelry store that let you trade up on your earrings and get full price on your trade. We would make payments for a year then I would trade for the next size.

You could always start something like that. I am at 1.2 ct (total weight)now and that is the perfect size for me.

Buy what you can afford. For ladies, the bigger the better, usually, but don’t go into big debt over diamonds for a girlfriend.

My college room mate and I had an expression when we saw our other male friends buying diamonds for their girlfriends…We said, “Yeah…I’ve already bought my diamonds”, as in that most guys have to do it just once in their lives before they realize what idiots they were because the truth is, most relationships break up for one reason or another. I am not saying that YOUR relationship is going to break up. You may be thinking on marrying her and I wish you the best of luck.

I bought my wife a beautiful 2 carot diamond engagement band in a fishtail platinum gold setting, adorned by four other 1/4 carot diamonds (total gem weight, 3 carrots). This I made up specially via a jeweler in the diamond district of New York that I had flown in to visit, just for this occasion. I was having something made up to match the wedding band I inherited from my mother which was the same setting, but with five equal size 1/4 carot diamonds. So total gem weight on her hand was 4.25 carots and she was so proud to show them off in her work behind the counter at a department store, selling cosmetics. People would look at her hand and ask with envy, “Did Zales spit up on you or what?” and she took great delight in that attention.

Well anyway, we were married for 10 years, separated, and imagine my shock to discover the engagement band I made specially for her, now with the 2 carot diamond wrestled out of it’s setting by obviously, a jewelers tool of some kind. She was dating a pawn shop jeweler at the time (yes when we were still married), and pawned the diamond I bought her to pay the retainer on the incredibly expensive divorce attorney she hired ($450 per hour) which I ended up having to pay half for in the divorce, thus extinguishing the children’s college education fund and our retirement nest egg.

Long story short, don’t go into heavy debt buying your diamonds. Love can be fickle which is why Marilyn Monroe struck a universal chord when she sang the song, “Diamonds are a Girl’s Best Friend!”. Watch the video if you haven’t seen that scene. It might help you from getting blinded by bigger diamonds.

Can you even see the actual diamond?!

STOP….you can get yourself some very nice diamoonds above the less than 3mm size you are seeking…honestly most women want at least a 1 CT set…I sell diamonds and I have tried and tried to sell cheaper tiny diamonds but women want people to see their real diamonds and they want to talk a dialouge that sounds impressive like oh they are 1 carat…so bump up to a half carat each and you have a full carat…its not going to be that much more and most likely affordable…..look into moissanite its a nice alternative if you cant swing the diamonds…..if you need help I will if you need more guidance…thanks freddydiamonds visit my blog for some quick learning too. freddydiamonds
