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!

Get Personal

Tis the season for gifting, and I don't know about you, but I LOVE sentimental and personalized gifts. I love anything that can be made custom to be one-of-a-kind. It's wonderful when you can wear not only a conversation piece, but a piece that speaks volumes to you yourself. Personalized jewelry made from handwriting you might have saved from birthday cards or letters are wonderful ways to memorialize and keep your loved ones who may have passed, close. You can wear a reminder of their sweet words to you - in THEIR very own handwriting! At the same time, those who are dear to you and still near to you like significant others might choose to share coordinates on jewelry of where you first met, where you were married, or of your favorite places. You can get creative with it. It's personal. It's meaningful. It's unique - like your relationship. Create a custom message or have your child draw a picture and have a bracelet or ring made out of it so that you can cherish it. 

Here are some really great finds, but get shopping if you'd like your gift here in time for the holidays. It takes time to make and ship these wonderful items.

Putting on Fall Airs

Each year, Autumn lends us such brilliant colors. As the earth harvests pumpkins and gourds, the leaves begin to change to brighten our lives. Nature provides such a beautiful backdrop during these months. Shades of oranges, yellows, greens, and reds dance around us. And, lucky for us, designers are lending their amazing designs in those brilliant colors to us as they harvest quite a collection in metallics and velvets even. Your go-to colors of the season are going to be rust, burnt orange, mustard yellow, olive green, and copper.  Here are some incredible dresses, rompers, and jumpsuits for when you put on airs...fall airs that is. You know...the incredible cool crisp nothing-else-quite-like-it fall air. 

Happy Browsing!
