With engagements, come engagement rings!  An engagement ring is a reflection of you and your fiancé that you get to show off and stare at for the rest of your life.  I’ve been married for over 2 years and I still stare at it because it makes me happy.  You just have to make sure YOU love it and that is all that matters.

It amazes me how far back the “current” engagement ring goes.  Take for instance, the classic Tiffany Setting.  It was created over a century ago and still holds that “OMG It’s TIFFANY’S”.

There is also the Cartier classic solitaire which has been around since 1895.  It’s so simple and yet gorgeous!  Check it out on the top left corner below alongside a whole bunch of drool worthy rings!

Stay tuned for some more posts about engagements! I just love this season!

ps. We all know the “Four C’s” – cut, clarity, color and carat weight.  You might find this useful as far as cut goes:
