I Bought Myself an Engagement Ring - My 0.505ct Whiteflash ACA

[Love_and_lemons]

Hi Ladies!
I'm so happy to share my new little sparkly ACA monster. This ring is a gift for me from me; it is NOT my engagement ring. (I hope that it won't repel potential suitors).

The diamond is ACA 0.505 K VS1 in WF 14k yellow gold classic 6 prong solitaire engagement ring with white gold head (size 8.25).

For the ring setting, I was inspired by this thread:

My first ACA, in Whiteflash's Classic 6 Prong Solitaire

After years of lusting over all of your ACA's I finally have one of my very own and I am obsessed!!! I chose Whiteflash's classic 6 prong solitaire in white gold, size 5,25 setting and have to say it is exactly what I have always wanted. The width of the band is perfect, not too thin which I...

Thank you, @sugarcloud, so much for the inspiration and encouragement!
I do agree with you; the width of the band is perfect, it is thin with a soft knife edge which gives it a very elegant and dainty look, but definitely not too thin.

Regarding the diamond, I live in Europe, where the average size is less than 0.5ct, and this ring is the perfect everyday ring.
I purchased the ring online from Europe without any problems at all. It was such an easy transaction and experience thanks to Becca and her friendly professionalism, positivity, and efficiency. I was worried about the correct ring size, but Becca had sent me a ring sizer before the purchase, and the ring fits perfectly.

And without further ado:

Love this! I told myself if I didn’t get a proposal before the end of 2022 that I’d buy myself something sparkly. I’ve got a .60ct loose diamond on its way to me and hopefully a custom setting in the works soon. Who says we can’t buy ourselves something beautiful?!

Wear it in good health!

Good for you in treating yourself to this gorgeous ring!

 

[Slickk]

Beautiful and yes to treating yourself!! Enjoy!

 

[lulu_ma]

Looks lovely on your in your hand! Congrats!

Congratulations!!!

I'm in a similar situation - bought myself an elongated cushion at the end of 2022, and I pick up the finished solitaire today. We live in a time where a woman can buy what she wants, no external permission needed. Your post was a joyous synchronistic boost for me! May we all create the memories we want!

 

[MamaBear]

It’s lovely!!! A ray of sunshine!

 

[lala646]

I love it!! I'm in a LTR, but my partner thinks bling is a waste of money, so I buy my own. I don't need approval or permission from someone else. Kudos for treating yourself!!

Same goes for you, @michellelynn9175 and @0515vision!

 

[Ally T]

What a total sparkle bomb! Absolutely love it on you!

And well done for treating yourself to something that makes your heart sing.

 

[oncrutchesrightnow]

Ooo so pretty. Would love to see more photos,

 

[tyty333]

Enjoy your ACA! I hope it brings you many years of viewing pleasure!

 

[Eli22]

So pretty! And I love that you bought it for yourself! Re: warding off potential suitors - will you be wearing it on your left ring finger?

 

[yssie]

It’s stunning, congratulations on a beautiful selection!

And good for you for living your own life and celebrating yourself, and what a fabulous sentiment to pass down one day!! You can always just slip it off if it seems appropriate to do so

 

[diamondyes]

Heck yes to marrying yourself first! Love this! And it’s gorgeous to boot!

We love to see a nice self care piece and a top choice too!
I think some fireworks are in order.
Go you!

HI:

May this be the first of many! FWIW I am 35 years married and have always bought my own loot!

cheers--Sharon

 

[Redwoods-hiker-girl]

Love it! I'm in a 20-year-long committed relationship, and I have one diamond from him (we're not engaged) and about a baker's dozen from myself. Diamonds are fun — and good for you for treating yourself to what your heart wants!

 

[oldcutclubmember]

What a great way to treat yourself! Other than my engagement ring, all of my other jewelry have been self-bought so I am a big proponent of self care and celebrating with what you want and love!

 

[angeline]

I think that's wonderful and am cheering you on! Congratulations on your beautiful ring. It looks right at home there. Enjoy!

Good for you it’s lovely! I have a “thing” for solitaires and do not think they are only for “engagement rings”.
They are simply THE classic diamond ring!
I have a lot of solitaires and change them up frequently.
Enjoy.

 

[Inked]

It's beautiful! I love my diamonds so much, I would wear them no matter what my relationship status. I love your choice! Enjoy the sparkle

Gorgeous! Wear in good health and enjoy!
