Carrie thanks for posting those. I tried on the square cut 3mm ring, but thought it looked a little....hmm....dull?! (I know, bad word for such a pretty ring). It didn't look right. It was also a little too think I think, I wanted to stay around 2mm......as I prefer thin rings. But, the baguette one (despite being 3mm) warrants a look at

....along with Kaleigh's suggestion of the legacy.

Dani- I will look at the Novo band too (huge fan of the rose gold version as well)....I love your ring, and am happy to take tips from you

(from- the other Dani!)


Coatimundi- Thank you!

Thanks, Dani!

One of these days I will get around to posting some pics of my w-set in the SMTR folder....I really do love it...I never thought I would find a w-band that would look good with my e-ring (remember I was considering a re-set)?....Well, once I tried on the Novo band (its just the most perfect, daintiest litttle band) I was hooked!!! The band itself is under 2mm and just so pretty. It doesn't sit completely flush with my e-ring, but because of its low profile, it sits close enough, and I actually like the non-flush look. I think you are really going to love it!


Let us know how it works out....can't wait to see what you pick!

So, I went and visited the South Coast Tiffany''s....They have a lot of great new stuff (rose gold hearts are making me swoon!...

I tried on the novo again, with my ring. I liked it a lot, but didn''t feel it fit my ring. It actually produced too much brilliant sparkle for my more subdued sparkle e-ring. I liked the Legacy ring as well, but found it had the same problem....and I re-tried on the channel set, and didn''t like it that much anymore either...They all paled in comparison (with my e-ring) to the knife-edge band. It just "fit" well.

This is a little bit of a bummer for me, as I would have loved to add a little more bling, but perhaps I am just going to need to finally get a RHR for that

p.s. I tried on two baguette/step-cut rings...the small square cuts (again) and the first one posted by BEE. I loved the one BEE posted, but it had two problems: too thick with my really thin e-ring, and too expensive right now (it is pushing the budget).

WELL! I BOUGHT A BAND...............


I must admit, I love the simple look, but the WR by itself is rather sad looking....hehe

Another

A nice one that shows the actual "look" of the soon-to-be set!

My fingers are not that fat

I am a size 5.5 and the rings are 5.75 and 6....so I have no idea why it looks like I am squeezing into them

 

[luvmyhalo]

I absolutely LOVE it! So classic. It really lets your EC shine!

 

[Sparkalicious]

Lovely! Congrats UCLABelle!

 

[Kaleigh]

Love it with your ering UCLABelle, classic and elegant. Nice choice!!

 

[UCLABelle]

Thanks LuvMyHalo, Kaleigh, Sparkalicious! I like the set, the space is rather big sometimes between the two, but I cannot do much about it. And don't mind it too much. The band really fits the e-ring, so I figure its fine I only wish trilliants were not so difficult to match a band with!!!!!Nothing fits great with them.

 

[idreamofice]

Ooohhhh...I likey

. It is very lovely with your ering! Very classic and elegant!

 

[UCLABelle]

Idreamofice- Thank you! I do think it is elegant. The e-ring is more modern than I thought I would ever like (because of the trilliants) but the band looks nice...so I am happy

 

[steph72276]

Oh wow! Great choice! Love it

 

[dani13]

Great choice, Belle!!! I really like it alot!!! Im sorry you didnt like the Novo or other diamond/pave bands...maybe it was the trilliants that threw it off?
Anyway, I really llike this band, and I think you made the right decision....YAY!!!

 

[UCLABelle]

Steph72276- Thank you! I am pretty happy with the choice!

Dani- I think the trilliants threw every w-band option off at least a little...Starting to be mad at them that the hindered my "added bling" attempt

 

[Jenn5504]

Awesome choice! Looks perfect!
