The Cutest Diamond and Cubic Zirconia Birthstone Jewelry for Gals With April Birthdays

They say diamonds are a girl's best friend, but for the April girlies who aren't exactly rolling in diamond money, a cubic zirconia is the next best thing.

Cubic zirconia is prized for its clear color and clarity, with a look similar to natural diamonds, but at a teeny fraction of the price, making it a gorgeous substitute for the April birthstone. The look suits both the daring Aries and refined Taurus babies born during the month. Whether you're celebrating yourself or someone you care about during a birthday this month, keep scrolling to check out our favorite cubic zirconia (and inexpensive diamond) jewelry pieces under $100.

West Angel The Diamond Cut Ring: $35

There's nothing quite like the way a glittering, crystal-clear gemstone can make a piece look bold and expensive, and this The Diamond Cut Ring from West Angel is the perfect example. The chunky chain shapes are contrasted by the glitzy stones for something that makes an undeniable statement.

STUDS Mini CZ Stud: $18 each

There are few looks more classic than cubic zirconia stud earrings, and you can leave it to a brand called STUDS to perfect the style. They're dainty without being too small, and we think the gold-plated backing in a diamond formation around the stone couldn't be more perfect. Plus, you can always mix and match looks for multiple piercings or asymmetrical accents.
