hi!
my 1 year anniversary is fast approaching! eeeegah!

originally i had thought a sapphire from jeff white would be available in time to be set for a 1st anniversary present ;) but it looks like the list is long... so i patiently wait..

in the meantime, my dh asked what i had my eye on.... and appropriately added.. "it's probably jewelry" - that boy is good!

i'm trying to keep it around $500 - any ideas and suggestions are welcomed.

i've been thinking about a diamond rolling ring from rollingrings.com? or another band to stack with my wedding set....
i also luuuuv the frank gehry line from tiffany and co.. but don't know...

what would you buy with $500ish?

for reference this is my wedding set ;)

thanks so much in advance!

How about a diamond pendant or earrings? Looks like she has enough rings on her hand. :-)

I'd say a pendant or earrings. Rolling rings are lovely but I wouldn't put anything more with your left hand.

lol..
my husband would probably agree... that picture makes my set look huge...
i was actually thinking i'd like to change out my plain 'everyday' band with something with some sparkles....
i swear it doesn't look as gawdy as it does in that huge picture..
hmm let me see if i can find a better picture ;)

i really like those pendants... my only concern is that i really like statement necklaces, bangles, earrings.. so i like to change them often.. the only thing i never take off is my rings.. so i'm afraid i wouldn't get much use out of a sparkly necklace..

also... my dh bought me diamond studs for our first christmas together.. i was thinking upgraded size??

p.s. i was thinking about the rolling ring for a rhr ;)

Slightly over budget, but if you wear a size 4, I'd go with this Tiffany ring from Signed Pieces.

How 'bout some sapphire studs to go with your ring?

I love rolling rings! I vote for either one of those or for another little stacker like your sapphire, maybe rubies or pink sapphires? Of course you don't need any more rings for your left hand, but you do also have a right hand and you have so many options with stacking rings! You could change up your stack everyday without taking off your actual wedding rings.
