This sentence gives an overall negative connotation because you're using a derivative means of describing the woman and he jewelry along with saying that the amount she is wearing is "a lot" more than what you would expect. It conjures up an image of a street adult woman with gold jewelry and thug-like clothing. It would not be an appropriate way to describe your grandmother given the age gap in both vocabulary and the overall negative connotation of the sentence.
The sentence that sounds the best when you read it out loud is:
C. Summer vacation came as a relief to the student, who was tired of studying and writing research papers.
