PrintableI found a set of earings that were diamond incrusted bridge style, really good clarity and I got them for half off. Price 600$.
Quantity or Quality. you get what you pay for. News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so. You have those internalized issues because you want to, you like to, stop. | |

CalhounSq said: ... for a pair of EARRINGS (for yourself or as a gift)??
I've been looking for a certain pair for about 2 years now (saw them on someone, fell in LOVE w/ them!!) & now I've found them  But they cost WAY more than I'm used to paying for earrings 
So I'm torn.  Being a Berkeley street merchant type of girl   I just can't see paying $60 a pair for something that's just silver/gold filled 
But the shape man, the SHAPE... 
Is it worth it if I'm totally in love?  (I want 3 pair!! 2 of the layered hoop, one of the double hoop...)  or am I just the cheapest bitch on the Org? 
I could probably get a dude in Berkeley to make them for like $20  But it's so much easier to just click "order" 
[Edited 12/1/05 5:54am] Those earrings are beautiful, I love them! I say, buy them, give yourself an early Christmas present. That's why you work and have money coming in, so you can treat yourself once in awhile to something you want. I say, "Go for it!"  RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

[Edited 12/1/05 5:54am] Those earrings are kinda plain for me. My boo boo is in NYC right now and he knows to be on earring patrol. The best jewelry and earrings are sold in Chinatown and in Soho. | |

ps: it probably wouldn't be that hard to make a pair just like them. most bead/hobby shops sell wire and jewelry findings | |

I would NEVER attempt to make them myself  but I did have a street vendor in Berkeley make a pair for me once. It took about a month (they get busy @ Christmas time) but they only cost 20 bucks  I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!!

Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect, it means you've decided to look beyond the imperfections... unknown | |

Here's a few sites that sell them: vivandingrid.com orghipchick.com azaleasnyc.com The viv&ingrid site may be the only one to offer them in 3 sizes though...
