Studs Earrings
Diamond Earrings are one of the most common types of jewelry that are purchased as gifts and for personal wear.
Available in a large variety of designs and styles, the choices can be quite daunting. But with a little bit of thought and awareness of the wearers style and demeanor, choosing the perfect pair can be done with a certain degree of ease.
When choosing to buy diamond earrings, you should first of all consider your financial budget. Your cash flow will with out doubt influence your choices as with regards to precious metal type, diamond quality and size.
Once you have established your budget range, then the real fun starts!
When selecting diamond earrings, your next choice is the type of mounting. The most common designs are the stud, hoop, and drop. Studs are by far the most common type, but hoops are a close second. Drops, or dangles as they are sometimes known, are usually considered a formal event earring. Dinner parties would be an ideal event to wear diamond drop earrings as they are considered very elegant and make a fabulous accessory to an evening gown. Studs are perfect for every day use, as they are practical as well as attractive. Available in various sizes, diamond studs can be subtle or extravagant in appearance. Hoops are very much the middle ground. Again, they can be subtle and practical, or they can be large and adorned with a large amount of diamonds.
When selecting the style of earrings, be considerate of the intended use by the wearer. Diamond studs are great for work or active events because they are the least likely to get caught on your hair or phone cords etc. Hoops, again can be used for work or more formal events, but a smaller, more practical set would be a more advisable choice for work.
Consideration, should also be given to the age group of the wearer. A younger person may prefer the more modern and simple designs that are available. The younger age category also tend to prefer white gold or platinum. A person from an older generation may prefer a more intricate design in yellow or rose gold. This is mainly influenced by generational trends. White gold, for example was introduced as an affordable alternative to platinum and was primarily marketed at a younger generation when its popularity began to take hold.
Unfortunately, some people do suffer from allergies and can have their choices in metal influenced by their skins reaction. People are rarely allergic to the actual precious metal as most of the metals are hypoallergenic and the skin does not react to them. It is usually the alloys used to reduce the karat purity of the metal and to make it stronger. Gold for example is far too soft for everyday jewelry use in its 24K form. To make it stronger, jewelers usually mix in nickel to make it stronger and to reduce the cost. 18K, for example, is 75% pure and is considered a higher quality metal to the more common 14k. It is the nickel and other alloys used, that people can be allergic to. If the wearer prefers yellow gold, but sometimes has allergic reactions, then the best course of action is to move to higher karat jewelry. White gold is a great alternative due to the fact it is plated in rhodium, a cousin of platinum, to give it the shiny silvery appearance. Platinum is extremely hypoallergenic and usually of a very high purity, 95% and upwards, very very few people are allergic to platinum or rhodium, so white gold is a great alternative for people who suffer from allergies.
As well as lifestyle, age group, and allergy considerations, a diamond earring buyer should also consider the physical appearance of the wearer.
A person with a longer face will need a longer pair of diamond drop earrings to look proportionate. A person with a shorter more rounded face will benefit from a shorter pair of diamond drops or would be best considering diamond hoops. With the amount of styles and designs on the market today, finding an ideal pair of diamond earrings should be relatively easy, and taking the above advice into consideration will go a long way towards helping to find the perfect set.
So no matter if you are buying for yourself or as a gift for a friend or loved one, you are now armed with the knowledge you need!

Can I replace earrings for one night and then put the studs back in?
I’m htinking of getting my ears pierced for the first time ever today (I’m 23!), but I am going to my cousin’s deb in 4 weeks time. Do you think I should get them done at this age or not even bother? If I do, do you think it will be safe to take them out and change the ugly piercing studs with something nicer for the night of the debutante ball and then put back in the piercing studs? Thanks!
Piercing studs can be pretty, you can get little diamonds or little birthstones that can be very elegant, no more do you have to go with the big gold balls, so go with the diamonds, just go to a better store to have them done, like a jewelry store. good luck
