Lauren I am really speechless...

I mean your collection is really a thing of beauty a really lovely and varied and many hued and yummy, delightful, delectable candy colored box of fun and joy. I''d just sit all day and drool if I ever got my hands in your jewelry box and of course I may need strip searching before I left

LOL joking of course but you have excellent taste...wear it all in the best of health!

 

[glisten]

Wow.... what a fabulous collection! You literally have a ring to suit just about every mood and outfit! Lucky girl!

I have to say... looking at your collection has convinced me that an asscher is the cut for me! When we come closer to picking an engagement ring, I''m sure your collection will be our main inspiration! (i''ll be sure to give you lots of credit!)

That peridot is delicious

Thank you Fsu1227, Btrflygrl23, Glisten, DandiAndi, Kae Kae, Po10472, CushionLadyESQ, Dani, and DiaDiva!

Glisten - sometimes you just *know* when you see a particular shape. I''ve always loved Asschers because of the architectural lines and big flashes of fire and light. Even having a few of them I still love each new gemstone to death! I''ll be looking forward to your e-ring journey! Do you know how you''d like to set yours?

Po10472 - Thanks, dear! My husband just gave me the Nikon D90 with the kit 18-105mm VR AF-S lens. I''m trying to decide between a 60mm macro or 105mm macro (both Nikon) for macro shots of both food and jewelry. Have any experience with either? Or do you have another recommendation?

Oh my gosh, what a gorgeous collection of rings!! I love each and every one, you have such excellent taste Lauren! I really enjoyed viewing all of these beautiful rings, the colors of the stones are so vibrant and beautiful, thanks for taking the time to post your collection!

eta: I posted before I saw all of your beautiful diamond rings!! Wow, they are all stunning, you have a very impressive collection Lauren, gorgeous pieces!

 

[Luckyeshe]

BEAUTIFUL, Lauren!!! O.M.G.!!! They are all absolutely stunning!!!!

 

[tigian]

So much eye candy, it''s overwhelming. How do you choose which ring to wear? How long has it taken for you to collect such pieces? Love all of it.

 

[oddoneout]

Lovely rings. I really like the peridot setting.

 

[Linda W]

ACK Lauren!!! I covet your collection. How ever do you decide, which one to wear?? They are all so beautiful.

 

[GliderPoss]

Lauren,

Love your collection! Especially your new asscher settings by LOGR. Sorry to be terribly nosey but could you (sorta) indicate how expensive those custom settings were? ie. under $US500 or over? I adore that setting and think it would be great for my asscher citrine but I''m (as usual) on a tight budget!

Thanks very much.

 

[Puppmom]

Wow, Lauren. That''s some collection! Looks like it took a lifetime to accumulate!! The Peridot is my favorite.

 

[marquessa]

Love the individual shots along with the GROUP shots!! My husband walked in while I was looking at this and said, "She has an amazing collection and great taste!"
