I know that there is someone on this site that is really good with Photo Shop!

The reason I ask is because I would really like to have a matching band to go with my ering. My ring looks kind of like the Tiffany Etoile with pave, but I am not sure if the centre diamond is large enough to pull off a matching band. Should I go with a thin plain band? What are the rules....?

Do you have any shots of your ring head on and on your finger?
If so please post it to this thread.
I am no Ana (aka Valeria 101) but if you can post those shots I wiould be happy to try and help.

Just a quick fix.  Hope someone can do better...

I am not sure there is a 'too much bling rule'. Only the 'feel good about your rings' rule

I LOVE your ring, but I would not go with a wide matching band. 

I'd put a very narrow eternity pave band on either side of it. 

Or just one for now!

I agree--I love the look of a narrow band w/ your gorgeous e-ring!

I agree I like the thinner band much better than the wider one.

Ooooooooh!  I just LOVE your Ering!

I always thought the rule was: "There's no such thing as too much bling!"

But actually I too prefer the thinner diamond band.  Then maybe another one to flank the other side....then maybe a pair of skinny colored stone eternity bands for variety...hmm...the possibilities are endless!

I think either a very very thin pave band if you must go with diamonds or a more simple plat band one eihter side could look lovely.

I agree with everyone thinner in this case will work better. I have a thicker band also and plan on getting a thin band. Otherwise I feel it would take too much away from my e-ring. I even think a thin band flanking each side of your e-ring would be lovely.

I will try to post some nice ones tomorrow. I definitely like the thin band though...I just don't want it to overwhelm.
