Friends! Waaaay back in Feb/March I was gearing up for some serious three-stone planning for my 1.23 E SI2 CBI. That was put on hold for a bit, and now I’m at it, full-force, in anticipation of our 20th anniversary in October.
I’m working with Layla on the design, but there is one issue I can’t put to rest in my brain: All platinum, or platinum head with rose gold shank? I’m leaning toward all platinum, but in my mind I’ve kind of been imagining the rose gold shank as something fun and beautiful. I haven’t been able to let it go, so I need a little help from PS! This will be a RHR. I’ll wear it on its own, or I may stack with my Cartier trinity (which is my mother’s ring with the kids’ names engraved).
I’d love your input. My wedding set is platinum, and I’m including my wedding set for you to see. Back when I met Layla as “Gypsy,” she gave me an idea for a diamond/sapphire anniversary band that helped to repurpose five diamonds from our first anniversary. I had a diamond band that I rarely wore, and I had an idea, but no real direction. I had this band made locally with her idea on a PS thread!
So, that was a little fun backstory! Now, what I would love to see are real-life hand pics of mixed metal diamond rings. My ring will have substantial side stones (just under a half carat each). Here’s a pic of my 1.23 CBI with my .50 studs on each side (1.01 ctw).
Any mixed metal rings that people want to share? Would this be a mistake with E colored diamonds? I don’t think this will be my last upgrade, if that makes a difference in your opinions!

Eternity design ideas: repurposing five 5-pointers
I have an anniversary band with five G/H VS1 5-pointer rounds. I almost never wear it and I'd love to pluck those diamonds out and get an eternity or 3/4 eternity made. I'd love to see what others would do with them... I just need some ideas to consider! I love the bezel look, but I'm not...

The sides are my daily studs... "just" triple-x G colored diamonds. I plopped my ring in salt and tried to prop up the studs nearby to create a three-stone look for just checking out the proportions. Thank you for your post... my heart tells me so many different things with regard to diamonds. 
these are beautiful perspective shots!! Thank you!
