Diamonds!

I am sure most of you have heard the news about Hollywood’s loss today…glamour goddess Elizabeth Taylor passed this morning at the age of 79. In memory of the great Elizabeth Taylor I found it fitting to do a blog post on something she openly adored…diamonds!!

“Big girls deserve big diamonds” -Elizabeth Taylor

Everyone has such unique style and one way to see that showcased is to check  out other ladies engagement rings. Find out what your diamond engagement ring says about you…the below information is all courtesy of theknot.com (one of my favorite wedding websites)! Although I am an emerald cut diamond, I personally feel like my personality matches a round cut better… but this is still fun to read!!

Oval Engagement Ring

Your style: In a word (okay three): over the top.
Your relationship: Together you are more than the sum of your parts.
Your wedding: Colorful and cool, with a very polished edge. No detail will be overlooked.

Round Engagement Ring

Your style: Traditional. You always look utterly put together.
Your relationship: Bottom line: you’re marrying your best friend. Here’s to a lifetime of sharing inside jokes and having someone really get you.
Your wedding: Relaxed, romantic and unfussy. It takes a lot of planning to make things look this effortless, but you’ll pull it off.

Emerald-Cut Engagement Ring

Your style: Sophisticated socialite — aka uptown girl.
Your relationship: You’re the girl of his dreams and he’s totally in awe.
Your wedding: Voted “can’t miss” event of the season (and not just by your mom). Destined to be the party where everyone hits the dance floor.

Cushion-Cut Engagement Ring

Your style:You take your cues from the Grace Kellys of the world — legendary women who demand to be set apart.
Your relationship: He lets you be…well, you.
Your wedding: So elegant and timeless that no one will be able to date the wedding photos afterward.

Princess Engagement Ring

Your style: Lover of all things sparkly.
Your relationship: He treats you like a…yep, total princess.
Your wedding: You may or may not arrive by horse-drawn carriage, opt for the biggest ball gown, or sport the tallest tiara — but you’re bound to have a royal blast.

Pear Engagement Ring

Your style: Classic, but with a twist.
Your relationship: Independent, yet utterly committed. You and your guy have each other’s backs. Period.

Marquise Engagement Ring

Your style: Old Hollywood (think: silver screen siren).
Your relationship: He puts you on a pedestal and lets you shine. But he’s not afraid to help you laugh at yourself when you get too big for your britches.
Your wedding: Pure glamour. You’ll create an enchanted atmosphere that wedding guests will never forget.

Heart Engagement Ring

Your style: Shameless romantic.
Your relationship: We bet your man is head over heels. Why? Guys don’t exactly gravitate toward heart-shaped objects. So we’re thinkin’ he’s all about making you smile.
Your wedding: Ball gown? Check. Petal-covered aisle? Check. Ice sculpture(s)? Check. You definitely don’t believe that less is more, and it shows.
