HOW TO BUY A GREAT ENGAGEMENT RING ON A BUDGET

Weddings are expensive business and first year of marriage setting up your nest together is going to cost a pretty penny.

The old "guideline" that recommends you invest the equivalent of two months' salary on the cost of the ring is pure marketing gimmick. You should deeply consider whether that amount could be better spent on your house down payment or a trip together or building a nest egg

When you are on the lookout for your engagement ring on a budget you would do well to keep the following ideas in mind.

Explore different gemstones-Diamonds are so expensive not only because they are rare in nature, but because their supply is tightly controlled by diamond cartels,which keep price artificially high.

Diamond in engagement ring is a recent phenomenon & for centuries simple gold rings have sufficed.But keeping the current trend for bling in mind I'd suggest you explore Emeralds, Sapphires, Rubies, Pearl engagement as the center stone for your ring.

                                                Harry Winston Diamond Engagement rings

Just a bit of background into my own engagement ring-I & My Hubby (the-then fiance`) spent over 6 months in search of the perfect ring!!! A search spanning 4 cities, scores of jewelers and gazillion online sites, I finally found the Princess cut diamond trinity ring in my size & specs at Gold Souk in Gurgaon!

It was tedious search, but I was jumping with joy & tears welled up in my eyes when we found it!

Next week we have our Engagement anniversary & I love my ring more & more everyday :)

This is what my engagement ring looks like (I tried clicking pics of my own ring,but the images look blurred )This 3-stone ring design is called "Diamond trinity ring" the three diamonds symbolizing The Past, The Present & The Future.

So lets get started to help you find your perfect diamond engagement ring!

DECIDE ON A BUDGET-I know sounds very un-romantic, but its very important to set a budget range to help you zero down on perfect memento of love , without breaking your bank.

DECIDE THE DIAMOND SHAPE-The diamond shape should be based on your personal preference. The Round shaped diamonds have the highest brilliance due to higher number of facets.

 

The Round diamond are also the most commonly available and also the most popular. You might not find too much variety in other shapes at most jewelery stores.

INGLOT SLIM GEL LIPSTICK 54 REVIEW AND SWATCHES

Hey Girls remember I told you about the ongoing Inglot sale at www.shopatmajorbrands.com & that I had just hauled up some Inglot lippies last week & missed out on the sale... Never mind!, I'm super excited to tell you all about the Inglot Slim Gel Lipstick.I just happened to check them out and instantly fell in love with this shade no. 54.

Slim Gel lipsticks are unlike anything I've tried before. These are so comfortable to wear, feel like a nice lipbalm, but have no greasiness, do not slide off my lips and the shade looks so lustrous,it reminds me of Dior Addict lipstick in texture.

THE PACKAGING-Sleek black heavy metallic casing, the cap firmly clicks shut.Inglot emblazoned on the case in white and  simple numbering at the end of the lipstick tube, make this lippie look really high end. I love the sleek & sophisticate packaging.
