Hello, can someone please help me decide between 3 diamonds?

They’re all nice diamonds. I would save money and either go with the 1.42 D VVS2 or the 1.53 E VVS2. The 1.42 D VVS2 has a larger spread (7.23×7.29mm) than the 1.43 D VVS2 (7.19×7.22mm) and about the same as the 1.51 D VVS2 (7.29×7.36mm). So I think that option would be more worthwhile if you’re OK at just under 1.5ct. If you want to hit 1.5ct, then the 1.53 E VVS2 saves quite a bit compared to the 1.51 D VVS2.
If you’re willing to consider lower clarity, you might consider the 1.5 D VS1 as an alternative to the 1.53 E VVS2 (stay at 1.5ct, trade one clarity grade to get back to D color). Or you could trade clarity for size with the 1.71 D VS2 or for savings with the 1.43 D VS2.
