I need some opinions please!
A bit of background (I am trying to keep it short): When we started planning the wedding I said I am not going to buy any jewellery, but I will be wearing my mother's and my grandmother's jewellery (for both emotional and financial reasons).
I have now fallen in love with a diamond and sapphire necklace that belongs to my mum. So far, so good - BUT there are no matching earrings. Went to a jewellers to ask about earrings to go with it, but to get properly matching ones I would have to have them made. This would go into four-digits numbers, which is not an option. I then thought I would get some diamond studs, it wouldn't be a "match" as such, but it would work.
Then last week OH found a magician for the reception (between ceremony and meal) and we agreed it would be more important to have this additional entertainment for everyone to enjoy, so I said I am happy to wear fake earrings instead and use the money for the magician (and, yes, I really am happy with that). While I was in town earlier I had a look around and saw some cubic zirconia studs, but then I went into Accessorize and found a pair of studs that look like crystal (not sure what they are actually made of) in a sterling silver setting (so no allergy problems). They were 6 pounds and I thought if I don't go for the real thing anyway I might as well go for a real good price and bought them... However, when I put them next to the necklace at home I started having doubts about them being too big. There is a flash of them and the necklace below - what do you think? Do they look silly big (I should say that they are not bigger than my earlobes, they sit nicely in the middle, but they do look quite big)? Many thanks for your help!
