Good jewelry shopping in Orlando?

[Dee*Jay]

We''re heading off for our annual week of torture--I mean *vacation*--with the family at the end of this month and it occurred to me that maybe I''m missing out on some good jewelry.

Anyone know of good shopping in the Orlando area?

I actually lived there for a while, but it was years ago, before the boyfriend and I even talked about rings. So my list is short, but there is a stellar Tiffanys in The Mall at Millenia, and a place in that same mall called Rocks. They had a pricescopers dream collection when I went, lots of BIG, beautiful pieces. The Mall at Millenia is a very upscale place, full of stores I couldn''t afford as a college student, but all of the jewelry in there is fabulous, since it caters to the wealthy set. I know the general ill feeling towards mall stores is widely deserved, but this mall is not a mall in the traditional way we tend to envision a mall. It''s like Rodeo Drive with a glass dome roof, and every diamond you will find in said mall is awe inspiring. Rarely anything less than 2 carats, even at the Zales. Rocks gets my top vote, though, as they were very nice and let me try on a $31,000 ring they knew I couldn''t afford.The mall is right off I-4, you can''t miss it, it''s to the East of the highway, but if you have family there, they will surely know where it is.
