Jewelry Help!

Okay so I've changed my mind and I think i'm going to get this headband CLICK -  And after looking through that sellers other listings i found these earrings:  CLICK

But I'm having a hard time justifying spending that much on earrings and a headband.  SO i was thinking about maybe still getting that headband and these similar earrings instead  CLICK  but I'm kind of worried that they won't be as sparkly or make as much of a statement as the other more expensive earrings -but at the same time i highly doubt anyone would notice?

What do you guys think?

ETA:  i just also realized that the cheaper pair is a tiny bit smaller at 11mm and the more expensive pair is 19 mm.

  • In all honesty - I can't really tell a difference between the two. I think we have a tendancy of thinking everything is going to be on 'show' on our day - but no one is going to be like 'oh look at her earrings, they should of been more sparkly, or bigger' they're going to think you look gorgeous. I would personally go for the cheaper ones, they're just as pretty and at half of the cost.

  • Honestly, even though it's pretty, I'd say go for the earrings you like better and see if you can find a less expensive headband. But that's just me :)

  • I agree that you should do a less expensive headband and the nicer earrings.  If sparkle is what you are looking for, I think you will get more from the earrings than the headband, and you are more likely to wear them again than the headband.

  • I'm not much of a jewelry person so I'm not sure if I would wear either again .... I don't know i just saw the headband and I just love it!  but you're right it is kind of spendy.... but I think that style would look great with my dress... and i haven't really found anything that compares to it.

  • Well it sounds like you are sold on the style.  Before you buy it though, I would recommend buying or trying on a metal headband at a craft or accessory store.  Some people find them comforatable and for some the pinch behind the ears pretty bad.  I definetly would give it a shot before you purchase it.  If its not comforatable you might try to find a similar style with elastic or fabric rather than metal.

  • Ohhhh I LOVE that headband. It's gorgeous!! If it were me, I'd probably go with the headband and the cheaper earrings. If you planned on wearing the earrings more, then possibly the more expensive ones. Either way, they're both pretty and very similar. I doubt anyone would really notice the difference between the two.
