Don't fool yourself into thinking fine jewelry is not the luxury purchase that purses and shoes are. I'm a jewelry lover saying so. You just need a few loved pieces, then put the rest of your discretionary income into the bank or into mutual funds, as it's the only true investment. Everything else mentioned is luxury spending.

I tend to buy solitaire style diamond jewelry and I like to buy from Blue Niles. I get to pick the stones I want and the setting I want. I picked up a solitaire diamond necklace. I picked .50 carat VVS2 quality and D in color which is colorless in Ideal cut. Which is the best cut to maximize the amount of sparkles. All stone comes with an GIA certificate and 30 days return policy no questions ask so I feel secure buying from them.

In the US, the GIA rates diamonds to help you understand the quality of the diamond on the four C's, as well as other features (like florescence). So, I don't see the need to pay the huge Tiffany premium. A quick look at the GIA certificate and 30 minutes reading up on the features of a diamond can ensure you get a great stone! So, we got my engagement from a local jeweler. In the US, the only places to definitely avoid are mall jewelery stores like Kay and Zales.

Hi A, just to help give you a balanced/additional view, I got the vintage and honestly from a distance it's small enough to be understated but still big enough to get equal spotlight and not disappear with your clothes, hair and accessories, a perfect size. This also depends on your size also. If you're tiny like our gorgeous Eileen then either will work but forms being size 12, the sweet will be disproportionately small and be "swallowed up".

@@ColourfulNoir my partner surprised me with a preloved piece in silver. It's a necklace with 3 small hearts attached to a pink cord. The 3 hearts also have a special meaning. One heart is his heart to me. The other two are from our two lovely cats that recently both passed away. We don't have children and my two cats were my babies. He also gave me 2 golden bracelets with silver (1 rose gold and 1 yellow gold) from "seeyoumemorial" jewelry with their ashes in it. I wear them every day so I have my both cats with me all the time

I don't think u can get that pair of chanel earrings at the boutique anymore. A few years back my fren was looking for them. But maybe u should sell them away. I sold mine 2 months back at 80% retail which was not too bad

Thank you for wonderful videos Eileen. I’ve been binge watching your channel last few days. You have a beautiful jewellery collection! How long have you owned the Hermes leather bracelets? I’ve heard gold or palladium playing can wear off over time. Did you find that to be an issue with the Hermes bracelet hardware?

Hi Fiona, all my Hermes pieces are still looking quite good. Seeing they are leather pieces, I always make sure to remove them before going into shower or to bed so they are still holding up really well xx

Colourful Noir thanks Eileen for the detailed response about your experience with these items. They are looking to be a good investment so I’ll put them on my wish list.

You should check out Blue Nile for diamonds and customize rings. Their price is excellent for the quality they offer :)

Thanks for the tip! I've heard about them quite a bit as one of my husband's friends was shopping for an engagement ring xx

great video! I do think that simple diamond pieces really have no need for a brand as long as they come with a GIA cert

I really enjoyed seeing your fine jewelry collection. I'm a senior and have been collecting fine jewelry for more than 40 yrs. I am allergic to many metals so have never been able to buy costume jewelry. At this point I would guess that I have 50 to 60 pieces. I agree with you that diamond studs are a wise first choise. That was the first piece of fine jewelry that I purchased. The 2nd piece was a diamond pendant, then Akoya pearl studs, Akoya pearl strand, and I don't remember what order after that. I have always tried to be very careful to select classic pieces. You have made some very good choices. Other pieces that are classic and never go out of style are bangle bracelets, hoop earrings, and the love knot earrings that were gifted to you at Christmas. I bought my love knots way back in the 70s. With the exception of one or two pieces, I think your jewelry will pass the test of time. Be careful not to get trendy, I made that mistake a few times. You are off to a great start, thank you for sharing your collection , it's beautiful.

What a beautiful collection, Eileen 😍! Love all of your pieces ❤! Btw, with me, it was the other way around: my first love was jewellery, then handbags / SLGs 😉🤗.
