Choosing Diamond Jewelry with Subtle Charm and Style

Everyone has heard the old adage that “diamonds are a girl’s best friend.” Marilyn Monroe sang a song about it and appeared in numerous print advertisements for diamond jewelry that had the same mantra spelled out. However, there are two problems with this statement. For starters, it is grammatically incorrect. The saying should technically go “diamonds are a girl’s best friends.” However, for those of us old enough to remember Marilyn Monroe, it is a little hard to imagine her singing this corrected line. We’ll let her slide on the sentence structure issue on this one. The second problem is that not every piece of diamond jewelry is a girl’s best friend. You can’t exactly imagine your classy grandmother going out to a fancy dinner for her golden anniversary wearing a diamond-studded crucifix necklace.

Of course back in Marilyn’s day you didn’t encounter the “bling” phenomenon. And once again, singing “some diamonds are a girls best friends” sounds even worse than the grammatically correct version. We’ll have to forgive her again for the oversimplification. It just had to be that way.When picking out diamond jewelry, however, we can’t afford to oversimplify things. We need to be very picky in order to decide on the perfect style of diamond jewelry. Most women want something that won’t blind everyone who looks in their general direction. They want jewelry with subtle charm and style.
