Hey guys I have posted a couple times on here but not much. I am having a real delema. I am going to be taking my relationship with my girlfriend to the next level soon and want to get her the perfect ring. We have looked around and thought about having a custom one made but then saw this ring from Excel Diamonds.

This is exactly what she wants. My question is do you think that the ring will still look good with having only a .50 carat center stone? My budget is only $2500. We have decided to go with white gold and my girlfriend wants a diamond that is high in colorless range (F or G). I also want to make sure to get her one that has a great clarity level (VS2 or higher). I don't want to worry about inclusions.
Is there really a big difference in size from .50 to .70 when you have a ring that has a halo around it and has the pave diamonds? She has small hands and a ring size of only 4.50. I know she will be happy with whatever she gets but I want to get her the best quality diamond not necessarily the "biggest" and I think that with this setting it will make the diamond look even bigger (plus, she loves this exact setting). I just want to surprise her when the time is right and have the diamond sparkle like nothing she has seen before!
Any advice would be great.
