Diamond Earrings Are Stylish and Versatile
Is there a special person in your life who deserves a special gift? Jewelry is always a great gift and one of the nicest is a pair of diamond hoop earrings.
Diamond hoop earrings are a great look that is classic and hip at the same time. They are available in gold, white gold, silver and even of multiple types of metal. Be sure to notice what type of metal he or she wears most often and buy accordingly.
You’ll be surprised at how many varieties of diamond hoops there are. The most popular style has a row of diamonds all the way around. Small or large uniform diamonds look very elegant all lined up. Sometimes that row is topped by a larger diamond or another stone as an accent piece.
Another pretty look is to have a plain metal hoop topped by the diamond. Or try to have the hoop at the center of the hoop. For a romantic gift try to find heart-shaped hoops or hoops studded with heart-shaped diamonds.
But why just use white diamonds? There are many other colors of diamond that would make your gift truly unique. Try yellow, pink or blue diamonds or combine these stones. Be aware that some of these colors are rare and you’ll pay accordingly. To fit a more modest budget, try combining the diamond with colorful synthetic stones. This would be especially meaningful if you use her birthstone, your birthstone or those of her children.
Most people think of hoop earrings that curve all the way around to make a ring. The earring is inserted into the ear with a post that connects the front and back ends. These are beautiful, but some people prefer a partial hoop that attaches to the ear with a traditional post and stopper as with other earrings. Some people think this makes the earring more secure in the ear.
One very popular hoop style is a variation on the now popular “journey” pendant: Three diamonds are linked in a partial hoop style to represent life’s past, present and future. This style makes a beautiful anniversary or graduation gift.
These are just a few of the variations of diamond hoop earrings. Go online or visit jewelry stores or major department stores to get other ideas. While you are looking you will also find tips as to how to choose diamonds based on color, cut, clarity and carat, the four Cs of diamonds.
Diamond hoop earrings are a great gift for those who like classic jewelry. Guys with piercings will appreciate their subtle “pirate” look. Women will love their classic elegance. They will be impressed with your thoughtfulness and with your good taste in gifts. Why not get a pair for yourself too?
