Editor's Picks: Diamond rings under $500? Yes, these hidden treasures actually exist.

Some people complete adult colouring-in books in their spare time. Others may play sport or do a bit of gardening. Me? I shop. But not just any kind of shopping, I specialise in online shopping. It’s the pastime that instantly brings a smile to my face.

Whether I’m on the train home from work or lying in bed, I can gaze endlessly into the online shopping sites on my phone without complaint. I like to say it’s my hobby and I’m very good at it.

There’s only one thing in life that rivals my love for shopping online. No it’s not chocolate, though that does come in very close. It’s finding a bargain. So when I discovered that Cash Converters has an online store full of gorgeous jewellery, it’s safe to say that I was just a tad excited.

Suddenly my two favourite things had come together and it was a match made in heaven. You see, when you get something for a great price, it’s as though you’re making money (at least that’s how I justify my excessive spending to myself).

From earrings to bangles and necklaces, here are my top jewellery picks from the Cash Converters’ Webshop:

18ct Yellow Gold Pear Shape Topaz and Brilliant Cut Diamond Earrings – $436

If you've had a look on Instagram lately, you'd know that gemstones are back in fashion in a big way. These 18ct Yellow Gold Pear Shape Topaz and Brilliant Cut Diamond Earrings are the perfect statement piece to dress up and accentuate any outfit. Cash Converters also have their jewellery cleaned and polished in house by their highly trained staff, ensuring it's in the best possible condition after you buy it.

18ct Gold Ladies Diamond Ring - $499

My favourite part about this 18ct Gold Ladies Diamond Ring is how unique the cluster of diamonds looks on the band. It's truly a one-of-a-kind piece that will set you apart from the crowd. Another great thing about this piece is it comes a valuation certificate, which sets Cash Converters apart from other secondhand retailers. When you buy with them, you know you're getting a quality item at an incredible price.

9ct Tri Tone Gold Oval Hinge Like Bangle - $319

If there's one trend I've fallen in love with lately, it would be stackable bangles. This 9ct Tri Tone Gold Oval Hinge Like Bangle set is seriously versatile as you can wear them in a variety of ways and are so stylish yet simple that they'll never date. You're well and truly getting your money's worth when you invest in a gold set that will never rust or tarnish. And if you want to go the next step in truly making them you're own, you could even consider getting them engraved.

White Pearl 45cm Necklace - $379

You can't get more elegant than a classic string of white pearls. And at Cash Converters, they're suddenly within reach. This White Pearl 45cm Necklace contains 56 white off-round fresh water cultured pearls and ends with a 9ct yellow gold round box clasp. It's been expertly tested and professionally inspected to ensure its outstanding condition. It's a piece you'll want to hold onto for years to come.

Cameo Ladies Vintage Brooch - $40

Lately I've been spotting brooches everywhere. They're the perfect way to give a button up denim shirt or khaki army style jacket a bit of edge and this Cameo Ladies Brooch is no exception. It's crafted from metal that is gold plated and it's the perfect way to add a vintage touch to your wardrobe. And with that kind of price tag, you're well and truly laughing.

Gucci Watch - $399

If you're into boutique brands like me but don't want to pay big prices for them, Cash Converters offer an incredible line of items from brands such as Gucci, Rolex, Tag, Tommy Hilfiger, Michael Herbalin and more at amazing prices. This Gucci Dress Watch features gold coloured dials and hands, a chequered face and is covered by sapphire crystal glass. The mix of gold and silver would make it incredibly easy to match with other jewellery and would add a bit of luxury to your everyday wear.

Tiffany & Co. Sterling Silver Bead Bracelet - $350

Tiffany and Co. is one of my favourite brands for simple and classic jewellery particularly when it comes to sterling silver. This Tiffany & Co. Sterling Silver Bead Bracelet is perfect for daily wear and is a piece that will never go out of style. It's also reasonably priced when compared to what you'd pay for a brand new item and you'd never be able to tell it's secondhand. What a bargain.

9ct Yellow Gold Bezel Blue Topaz Ring - $54

A perfect accompaniment to the topaz and diamond earrings above, this 9ct Yellow Gold Bezel Blue Topaz Ring proves that you don't need to spend a lot of money to get in on the gemstone trend. Like the earrings, it's a unique item that you can be sure no-one else will have. It's also dainty and small enough that you could stack with other gemstone rings. The Cash Converters Webshop has over 8,000 9ct gold rings starting from just $35.

With the Cash Converters Webshop, there are three easy ways to shop. You can either buy online and have it delivered, click and collect, or see it online and buy in-store. The benefit of this is to browse your local store online then you’re able to try it on in-store before you buy it.

Getting the gorgeous items you're after at a great price has really never been so simple.
