Quite the Pear

Paris Hilton's ring as seen on People.com
Cardi B's ring as seen on People.com

By now you have probably seen Paris Hilton's engagement ring. I mean, you can't miss it - even from space! The 20 karat diamond ring was a whopping $2 million! Hip Hop artist Cardi B, also engaged and sporting an 11 karat $500,000 ring, noticed quite a similarity between the two - their beaus put a pear on it! That's right, they are both donning pear-shaped diamond engagement rings which, well, isn't too unusual, but the large size and loudness has not been so "hot" until now.

With Valentine's Day approaching, and some of you ladies hoping that the question will be popped - this is a little article you may want to send your future fiance's way if you dare to pear. Oh, and these picks are much more affordable!

Engaging Boho Beauties

With the increase of straying from the traditional wedding over the past decade, not only have we seen a change towards unique venues whether it be barns, the woods, or teepees on the beach, but also a change in wedding gowns. This is most prevalent in the boho world where hippy-esque brides with more carefree attitudes deny the frill, beads, and bling and opt for plainer white flowing dresses. Often, these dresses don't even need to be purchased in a bridal salon. It is fabulous that brides feel able to embrace their own style for their big day and go off the beaten path to follow what their heart desires. So then why are we all still vying towards diamond engagement rings? They say "diamonds are a girl's best friend", but who exactly are "they" and how vague of a statement is that to speak for everyone? Just as perhaps a traditional bride may want a gold band and diamond solitaire, a boho bride may be more interested in other natural stones like opal. Opal, in fact, is very romantic having even been used in Shakespeare's writing. So, let's give these brides what they want too! I have pulled together an assortment of what are alternative engagement rings in the sense that they they are most likely cushioning something rather than diamonds. Ever hear of Morganite? You'll be tickled pink when you see it!
