All right, now that you have decided to pop the question, the next thing that you are doing to want to do, is figure out your budget.  Honestly, engagement rings do not grow on trees and most of the time, they are super expensive, so you definitely want to make sure that you find the right engagement ring for the right price.

This is where you researching nose should come in handy.  Making sure that you are finding the best possible deal in the world is something that should be pretty easy.  Make sure that you utilize the internet as much as possible, that way you can definitely ensure that you are getting the very best deal.

What a lot of men do not know is that the rule of thumb when it comes to engagement rings is that you should want to spend upwards of two months salary on an engagement ring.  Personally, I would not do that and I would put a cap on the ring of about $2,000.00, but that is just me.  More to come!

So we all know that springtime is by far the time for weddings.  May, June even July are just a few of the most popular times in the year to get married.  While most blushing brides focus their energy on their dress, most of them forget about the jewelry!  Well ladies, think about the jewelry that you are going to wear on your wedding day, it is very important!

Vera Wang is now trying her hand at wedding jewelry and if you look at this pretty little piece, you will see just how much she is succeeding.  Personally, I think that this beautiful necklace is one of the prettiest things in the world.  I think that is looks like a combination of something old and something new.

This necklace has a very old-time feel to it but it is definitely modern.  The diamonds are incredible and I love the little pearl at the bottom, because we all know that pearls right now are very in!

Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend

01-cathy-waterman-feb2

Well, of course diamond’s are a girl’s best friend — we’ve all known that for years.  But did you realize that platinum is a really close runner up?  A lot of jewelry designers are choosing platinum of yellow gold, white gold, and silver — and when you look at a piece like the one above, it is very easy to see why!

That is a band designed by Cathy Waterman.  Never heard of her?  Yeah, I had never heard of her either — nor had I heard of any of the other jewelry designers which are going to be featured in the weeks to come.  It is amazing how many awesome designers out there that many of us have never heard of, but who make some of the most gorgeous jewelry you have ever seen.

Like this diamond and platinum baby band, just as a for instance.  When you take one look at it, it is hard to understand why you haven’t been checking out works by this designer long before now, right?

Glam Up Your Phone: For A Price!

2008-12-jn-diamond-dior-phone-detail

In this day and age, it is no wonder that everything is iced in diamonds, including all of our electronics!  Prada, Dolce & Gabbana and even Armani have all entered into the designer phone market and are all creating superior phones that include diamonds, gold, silver and even platinum!  For example, do you see the picture?  Well my darling readers that is the newest Christian Dior phone of diamonds.  It is set with roughly six-hundred-forty-one diamonds in all and it weighs in with about 3.251 carats.

While of course this beautiful phone is going to be expensive, isn’t it so worth it?  To have a phone that is encrusted with diamonds?  Well, I certainly think so, but if you want this phone, you are definitely going to have to make bank because it runs about twenty-eight thousand dollars.  Yes, that is a two and an eight with a whole lot of zeros behind it.

This phone is not just beautiful though, it is a piece of technology – like the flat electro-luminescent keyboard and the fact that it comes with a luxe crocodile holder all make the deal a little sweeter right?  Right.  Have fun!

SpongeBob In Diamonds: Did You Think It Was Possible?

67537-011609_spongebobl

Well, I certainly didn’t!  I did not expect to be seeing a diamond pendant that was SpongeBob’s face, but there it is!  Now, this pendant was not just created for the heck of it all, this beautiful piece was actually created in honor of SpongeBob SquarePants’ 10th anniversary and it was created by the Simmons Jewelry Co., together with Nickelodeon itself.

Now don’t go thinking that you can purchase this beautiful piece of jewelry for your home collection, this pendant is to be auctioned off for charity, but it is worth roughly $75,000.  It holds about twelve carats of diamonds in all sorts of different colors and is 18-karat yellow and white gold.

So if you are one of the biggest SpongeBob fans and you are looking for a piece of jewelry that will let you have our dear spongy friend around your neck, take a trip on down to Park City, Utah during the 2009 Sundance Film Festival and you will see this beautiful piece up-close and personal!
