If so, what size are they?
This post is totally pointless because I am absolutely not getting diamond earrings for Christmas or anytime soon. However, I want to know which ones I want so I can continuously ask for them over the next couple of years (angel). It's hard to gauge size by looking online so I figured I'd see what you guys are wearing.
My dream is to receive them for a push present/30th birthday combo gift but my H is not sold on the idea. At all.

Mine are .25 carats each, asscher cut. I like the smaller ones though since I wear them every day. I think it's the perfect push & 30th birthday gift! I got mine for my 30th.
DH gave me diamond earrings for our first Xmas together. In our culture a woman picks her own ring, so the man proposes with a different piece of jewelry. Mine are princess cut 1/2 carrot each ear
I do, I am wearing them right now It's the fanciest thing about me at this point in my life.
Now the size.....hm...not sure. DH started off buying me the worlds tinest pair ever, and then over the years we have traded them in with more cash for upgrades. Is that weird to admit? lol. (huh)
ETA: Maybe 1/2 ct total weight? or is it 1/2 ct each, I have no fucking idea
Mine are .25 c total weight. They can be exchanged at the jewelry store in the future toward bigger. I love them though. They're princess cut. They were my push/first Mother's Day gift.

NO! And I neeeeed them! I think we've had this discussion, lol.
I was closer to .5 carats but that's probably not happening for a while. Fancy wants what fancy wants, though.
I do have pearls and I love them and think they're the perfect size (for pearls, they'd be obscene as diamonds). I also want pearl/diamond combo. I'm a spoiled brat.
ETA: I want them to be half carats each bc I'm terrible.

I tell DH I want ones to match my E ring, which is 1.5 caret, I think I will be waiting for him to get about 3 more promotions before I get those. Maybe I can get some fake ones for now.
Nope but I really want some too! I think for my birthday I should get them. I love the round ones you have carawestt that is exactly what I want! Do you wear them everyday? I want them to wear everyday.

I was thinking half carats each too So wait, that means when I'm looking I'm looking at 1 carat earrings? That is what confuses me.
I have pearls too and they were a wedding gift from my husband and I get so much wear out of them.
I am going to try and beg/guilt my way into this push present if it's the last thing I do!
Next year is my 10 year anniversary, when we first got married I put an "order" in for a diamond anniversary band for our 10 year. Wanna place bets to see if he remembers?

In this issue of Oprah magazine they broke down the price of diamond earrings bye act wear if you wore them every day. If you wore them every day for 25 years they are only a couple cents a day!
I have two pairs, both are .5 carat (I think) total weight. The square is 4 diamonds and the round is one solid diamond.
Your earrings are the size of the e-ring center stone. I'm going to drown my sorrows in shopping.
J/k - about the sorrows, not the shopping.
They're the same size as my engagement ring diamond too! But they're hand me downs/gifts from my mom, so I didn't have to spend money on them. They would be much smaller had I bought them myself.

Yeah, you're looking at 1 carat earrings bc they sell by total weight usually
Yes, I wear them every day. Like, I never ever wear other earrings. It is my only superstition, I think.
They are around 2/3 ct total weight, 1/3ct each.
I am happy with them; my husband wants to upgrade. I tell him no every year. Maybe when we are done paying for two in daycare. If I were to upgrade, I would want 1 ct each.

I used to wear them everyday but since having Lincoln, I don't. He used to grab at them and I was terrified of losing one! I still wear them pretty often though.
