Shopping for your OWN Engagement Ring!
Tuesday, June 16th, 2009Kim Kardashian says she’s just saving time and stress - by shopping for her OWN engagement ring. “It’s just easier,” Kardashian says. She has filled her sisters in on what she has in mind for her fiancee-to-be, Reggie Bush, to give to her when he pops the question. This has been a growing trend, and a lifesaver, for today’s pre-engaged man struggling to find the perfect ring for his love.
If you think your man might be dropping the hint that you’ll be getting engaged, you start to go through the details of the proposal. You want the event to be perfect, from the place it occurs to the engagement ring. Like most women, I would love to think that my man knows me well enough to choose an engagement ring for me. Realistically, that may not be the case. An engagement ring is something you will have forever, and should be reflective of the woman who wears it. Trying to make this experience as pleasant as possible should be the goal, so both of you are focused on what matters, your future together.
How does this happen without spoiling the spontaneity and romance? If you know that the two of you are on the road to marriage then he won’t worry about you saying “No”, he’ll just want you to say “WOW!” One way for him to see you respond this way is for him to really consider your taste in jewelry. What style of enagement ring will make you melt and fall in love all over again? This is a very big decision, and one you won’t want him to make on a whim. A great way he can get some help, if you’re not sure if he has any clue about your style, is if he talks to someone close to you. Maybe your mom, sister, or best friend can help steer him in the right direction. A fool-proof way to make sure he isn’t being led astray is to drop some hints of your own to the people he may enlist for help.
Start doing a little window shopping or web surfing to see the various styles and diamond cuts that are out there. With so many to choose from it may be little overwhelming, just think how your fiancee-to-be feels like. I have found that selecting a few options and getting some feedback from trusted friends and family can help you to narrow it down.
RITANI, an innovative designer in bridal jewelry, has created a way for you to compile your choices of their products into a poll. This is incredibly useful and easy to send by email to get quick responses which can help in your pursuit of the perfect engagement ring. Try this out and I think you will be assured a great selection, and your man will appreciate your help without knowing you did anything at all.
