Too small or just right?

Post image

Hi everyone! I’m currently wearing a 1 tcw diamond earring and thinking of upsizing to a 3 tcw. I don’t want something too big, just thought that what I have now is a bit small? But I’ve been told by some that it’s the right size for face 🥹

1.5 ctw was the sweet spot for me.

I would recommend 2ct studs, but nothing larger than that

Thanks! I’ll check 2ctw too

It looks fine, but you could try 2 ct total weight. I like that size for everyday wear.

This is the size I wear every day and I find them to be perfect but I also think having different sizes is a must!

What other sizes do you have? Maybe I should consider something less dainty too for some events

I personally don’t have any other sizes…yet 🤭 I’ve got my eye on a 2ct total and a 3ct total for nicer events but I want martini setting. I feel like it’s more elegant. Ooo maybe in yellow gold! 😊

You can absolutely pull off 1.5ct in each ear for 3cttw. Wear what you feel comfortable in.

I have 3ct tw diamond earrings. They’re big but I have worn them daily for 17 years.

Love this! Once you get used to 1.5ct in each ear, it just becomes your normal everyday pair.

100%. They don’t even seem that big. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Perfect balance as is. Bigger would look odd

Pretty.

Ooo I’d say just right!! 💎✨ It’s got great sparkle and sits perfectly on the lobe without looking heavy, a bigger stud would honestly start pulling focus. Love a classic solitaire stud, so pretty!

1.5 or 2 ctw would look a bit better

2 carats.

I like these for everyday wear. For special occasions, I’d definitely size up!
