Fashion trends are ever changing, evolving and very often cyclical. There is never a dull moment! The past couple years have seen a re-emergence of the importance of accessories and they are bigger and better than ever. With a lot of emphasis on the luxe and the elegant, fine jewelry continues to be a big fore-runner and is once again on the upswing, but with a pretty noticeable twist! Bigger, chunkier jewelry now seems to dominate many a fashion season, and it has continued into the new year as well, as seen on the streets of the fashionable New York city and at starry events all over the world. When it comes to fine jewelry and those looking to make a trendy yet long term investment - what is popular are large diamonds in New York, Hollywood and many cities where the trend-setters reside.

Diamonds are timeless, effervescent and undeniably beautiful. Diamond jewelry changes from year to year; the styles, the sizes and the kinds of colors used and the way people wear them, all of it goes through minor and major overhauls every year. There are the timeless solitaire studs, diamond hoops, solitaire rings and the like that are always in vogue; but the bigger, brighter rocks have caught the attention of anyone who wants their very own piece of opulent dazzle. If you are looking to purchase large diamonds in New York or anywhere else in the country, it is is obvious that it is a major investment and a pretty noticeable one at that. The stone should ideally be of a skilled cut, good clarity and will be a high carat weight due to the size.

Recently, red carpet sightings have been full of A-listers wearing large diamond tear drop earrings, a statement necklace with a big stone set in the center or tennis bracelets encircled with glistening large gemstones. These luminescent sparklers have inspired many designer and local versions, in all sorts of ranges and styles. If you want the look of gorgeous large diamonds but without the price shock, you can also try layering a couple smaller diamond encrusted pieces to mimic the impact and the pizazz or opt for costume jewelry if you are still figuring out if the look fits in well with your personal aesthetic.

If you are seriously considering investing in large diamonds, New York is the place to go. It is not only home to some of the best jewelry design houses, up to date on the trend du jour, but also home to many reputed diamond trading companies who not only procure the best quality stones for you, but also provide customers with a range of stunning setting options, where they can place the diamond of their choosing.
