+1. I swear some of you were raised by wolves. Diamond earrings are for evening.

Not everyone adheres to WASP-y notions of what's appropriate. Diamond studs are perfectly acceptable daytime wear in a lot of cultures. The fact that you deem this to be savage (i.e. akin to being raised by wolves) says a lot more about you than it does about the people wearing the earrings your judging.


Oh please. this comment is about copying the royals, as recently reported: https://www.news.com.au/entertainment/celebrity-life/royals/why-meghan-and-kate-cant-wear-diamonds-in-the-daytime/news-story/c449890553a6aab2b7eedc00c466015f

And lets be real, no one on the board is talking about wearing the type of Diamonds that Kate and Megan have access to. Stud diamond earrings, ie not dangly, are fine during the daytime.


The royals didn’t “invent” the rule. It’s a long-standing requirement that well-bred ladies save diamonds (other than engagement rings) for dinner and later. You don’t have to agree, but I think it’s always helpful to learn about unspoken class indicators.


This old trope about diamonds in the daytime is repeated by people who did not grow up with money and are looking to latch on to what those with "breeding" do.


+1. It's hysterical to me. People try so hard on DCUMs.



Go ahead, be a rube. We all know the rules even if you don't.


I have enough money that I don't have to worry about the rules anymore. I can do what I want.

This is an antiquated rule that even well bred, old money eschew. "Well bred" women would have never had their ears pierced in the first place, wouldn't ever wear pants of any kind or leave home without pantyhose. Do you think we should still follow all of these rules in the 21st century?

I got a multi pack of faux diamond studs with different sizes of stones. I tend to wear the 3/4 studs the most I think. And if one pops out and I wind up losing it I won't care.

Mine are 2.48 total carat weight (bezel set in platinum), and I think they're perfect. I also had jackets made for evening wear.

This. As a child, I was also raised that girls under the age of 16 DID NOT WEAR BLACK, one did not wear white or patent leather after labor day and that one must always wear hose. LOL! Please.

Hardly, even Miss Manners agrees.

Who cares about "etiquette?" Wear whatever jewelry you want whenever you want.

By all means be a sheep if you want to.

Why do you think that there has to be a rule of what you have to wear? It doesn't matter what the others think about you when they see that you a wearing a small shape of diamond or a big one. Believe me, no one cares. I don't want to make politics here but I do agree with the choice that made Megan. Now she wears wherever she wants and no one tells nothing. That is why ladies if you want to wear something do it and this is. For example, I'm in love with small jewels and I wear once many of them, why 'cause I like it. By the way, I found this site https://houseofjewellery.com there are the best jewelry, if you were looking for a good online shop this is for sure. So just think about what you want and stop living with old stereotypes.

There is a rule for the royal family. As I know they even have days when they can't wear specific jewelry. So if we speak about the royal family it is different!

Boy, am I glad that I descend from hearty peasants and don't have to listen to rules that those with better "breeding" than me invented. I'm sorry that your delicate well-bread eyes will have to suffer the glare from the sunlight bouncing off my earrings.

I personally like a 1ct TW for everyday. But I was raised by wolves so...

You cannot be serious.


It used to be no diamonds before 5pm, no watches after 5pm. So when do you wear a diamond watch? Never unless you're LC.
FWIW, I love my diamond watch. Ha! Though now I just use my phone for the time. Times have changed.
