Yes, I'm addicted! Some of you may have seen the Whiteflash ACA tennis bracelet post I put up a few days ago...well, while working with WF on the bracelet I found this 5.59 ACA stone and couldn't get it off my mind 
Once I educated myself on ACA diamonds, I couldn't get enough and REALLY wanted an ACA to wear with my gorgeous new bracelet. I LOVE my yellow diamond engagement ring ([URL='https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/my-new-yellow-diamond-engagement-ring.214108/']https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/my-new-yellow-diamond-engagement-ring.214108/[/URL])...it sparkles like crazy! But there's just nothing like the sparkle of a brilliant white MRB, and in this case ACA!
My sweet, adoring, loving hubby gave me the okay. Yes, he thinks I'm a but crazy, but he's loving it too! Once I educated him on the ACA diamonds and how cut is everything, he understood and was excited to see the ring and bracelet. He's such a good sport
My only reservation initially with this particular diamond was the "I" color. All of my diamonds in my jewelry was F-G and occasional H color. As you will see from the photos I'll attach, a super ideal cut makes all the difference in color and how it looks to the eye. I'm so grateful I gave this diamond a chance. There is no way I'd spend the extra money (which becomes exponentially more expensive in higher carat weights) for a higher color, it's just not necessary in my opinion (I know people have difference sensitivities to color). I'll add some photos of this I diamond with my FG bracelet. They are both icy white!
At first I thought I would have the diamond set in a custom setting, but after I changed my mind 20 times in 24 hours
, I decided to have it set in a simple platinum, Tiffany style solitaire setting (thanks m-2-b for your inspiration) until I decide what to do.
My ring size is 7
5.59 I VS1 A Cut Above (ACA) Hearts and Arrows
(Thank you Debi and Becca at WF. You guys rock!)
I'm beyond thrilled with my new ring and bracelet. I can't stop staring at them...they're very distracting!
Here are a few WF glamour shots first and then I'll post a few hand shots. Thanks for looking...
