Sometimes people just want a touch of hip hop. Although this may sound like a contradiction in terms (which moron who knows anything about hip hop style would want just a touch of hip hop?) one can get just a touch of a hip hop jewelry statement with the basic diamond stud. You don’t even have to have a pair. One side is enough if you’re a guy. It just needs to be bigger than all get out. How big you may ask? I think a minimum of 3 carats in a round or 2 1/2 carats in princess cut would do the trick.
You don’t need more than this because single diamonds that are high quality diamonds will flash light at eye level and will be quite noticeable at a party, gig, or any gathering where you want to be noticed. The first impression from your diamond stud will likely be the flashing sparkly diamond as it catches the light, and the second might well be the vibrant color if your diamond stud has a row of smaller colored diamonds on the bezel. Color enhanced diamonds combined with funky designs and highly distinctive looks are instantly recognizable as hip hop. Some men love checkerboard styles with white and deeper colored diamonds set in a check pattern. Others may prefer the bling of lots of small bright and sparkling white diamonds, against a yellow gold or pink gold setting.
Most popular are the kite shapes with varying patterns of blue, yellow, black and white diamonds either in pave set round diamonds or invisible set princess diamonds. This ubiquitous style comes in a dizzying array of design combinations to suit any requirement. Some men may only want a black and white combination with the center black and the outer rows in white or vice versa. Others may want the full rainbow colored diamond repertoire mixing pink, blue, yellow, brown, champagne, cognac, with white diamonds to highlight the effect of all the colors.
Men who cannot afford the real diamonds and gold earrings can pick up the CZ and sterling silver versions for not much money and once they’ve decided on what suits them best can opt for the real ones later. the Sterling silver and CZ earrings can be designs that are the latest trends and replicas of red carpet fashions and hip hop music video fashions. You can have a full collection of silver hip hop earrings that are reproductions of the celebrity earrings from artists like P. Diddy, Nelly, Jay-Z and athletes like Alan Iverson, Jermaine O’Neal, and Lebron James.
