Yeah but I don't have an opinion on what other people should buy. If someone likes real for any reason, then they should go for it. If they like knockoffs then go for it. The only thing I have an opinion on regarding other people's jewelry purchases is that they shouldn't try to pass off knockoffs as real.

If you're asking what my opinion would be for myself, that's different. Personally I wouldn't buy fake gold, but I would buy gold plated sterling silver. I'm also a fan of moissanite over diamonds because it's real stone with beautiful brilliance for way cheaper than lab grown diamonds. I also see no point in buying mined diamonds over lab grown. But again this is my personal preference. Your question was asking what our opinions on what women should purchase in general to which my answer is the same-- whatever they prefer.

That depends. I have yet to find a cheap yellow gold alternative that doesn't turn colors after 3-6 months of daily wear.

You may re-plate gold covering.
If you use one piece on a daily basis then solid gold is the right thing for you.
