    I don't really wear either, I have this idea that only old ladies wear pearls Laughing out loud don't know why Laughing out loud and diamonds maybe on my wedding ring
    if I'd have to choose I would choose diamonds over pearls Smiling

    I agree, Lala. I usually only picture old ladies wearing pearls.

    I do like BLACK pearls though.

    Meh. I'm attracted to shiny things, so...I love diamonds!

    I think pearls are very classy and perfect at any age. Audrey hepburn is my Hero and she wore pearls and diamonds (both) religiously

    I love Marilyn Monroe, but it's all about the pearls (especially black ones).

    Diamonds only if they are conflict-free. (I don't want any blood on my hands for a shiny little rock...)

    Until people stop dying for Diamonds, until whole economies aren't overcast with abuse, I wouldn't think to buy even one. Even the Diamonds that are supposedly authenticated properly, I don't trust it.

    I'm all for having the best of both worlds! No "blood diamonds" though!

    Both. I like diamonds for every day - studs, wedding band, charm bracelet (it's my birthstone, so I have quite a lot).
    I like a simple pair of pearl studs for when I dress up or a necklace, But NOT both. Simple and classy. And pearls only look grandmotherly if you look like a grandma!!

    I like diamonds and Tahitian black pearls. I have some CZ earrings that I call my "man-made" diamond earrings Smiling Just because they weren't around 1000 years ago...

    I never want to have pearls. It reminds me of grandma or matronly jewelry. Once my boss whose husband owns a jewlery store gave me a pair of pearls with diamonds on it, I didn't even want to wear it so I gave it to my mother.

    Diamonds all the way. Although there is a time and a place for pearls.

    I never bought either, nor do I really care about real gemstones on jewelery. I'd pick diamonds over pearls because my relatives have showered me in pearls since I was little (it's my birthstone). Plus my grandmother and godmother demand them to be wore during functions they force me to attend. I associate pearls with the class and grace, but diamonds also have an elegance as well.

    Pearls.. they are so classy and sophisticated. I don't really wear any diamonds other than my engagement ring, and even then I have an asscher cut which is less sparkly and more classy. I do wear pearls almost every day though, and sometimes I even switch out my engagement ring for a pearl ring.

    Both! But if I had to choose only one, pearls, because they are more different. And ever so classy!

    i hate pearls...not really my look at all and unfortunately my best friend just got me pearls for a graduation gift Sad so in terms of appearance i'd have to go with diamonds but they're becoming quite a controversial stone and not even all that precious so i guess it's neither for me

    I love diamonds, but everybody has them and wants them. I love pearls more simply because you don't see them as often. Plus, they always make you look more put together.

    Colored jewels like jade and citrine are great too.

    I love amethyst, aquamarine, emeralds, sapphire and topaz. Diamonds are too burned out for me.

    I Love diamonds..but I love my pearls, too. I voted diamonds because, if I could only have one that's what I would chose.
