what is a good color/quality for a diamond. Im lookin to buy the other half something bling bling (not a ring) something more along the lines of a tennis bracelet or something. I found one in my price range, but the color was G-H and the quality was SI1-SI2. I have no ideas what these mean. Someone shed some gemology light....

G-H and SI1/SI2 is fine for a tennis bracelet. Better than most mall crap. For a solitaire, I would not personally go below G and VS2.
