Don't stone me for saying this, but when is big TOO big? Can you imagine a real working person wearing 10 carats of bling around on a daily basis? I know there are some women here with some serious bling. Do you wear it every day?

personally i find it a bit gaudy and ostentatious, even on a celebrity. cocktail rings are one thing, but a big headlight of a diamond is too flashy for me. i'm also not impressed with the settings of most of the celebs' rings, the stones are huge but the styles are generic and unimaginative. seems like a waste of stones and money.

I think I would find a way!!!!

But, seriously, I would worry about someone wanting to chop my finger off, or some other crime if I were wearing such a headlight. And I wouldnt want to make every person I ever met jealous either!!!

An ex colleague of mine had a huge engagement ring (and we're talking Celebrity Huge) and she was terrified to wear it. It spent most of its time in a jewellery box in a safe - I prefer to have a smaller one (although mine is smaller than I would like but it was given to me 12 years ago so...) that I can wear all the time rather than having one that I was scared to wear.

I actually think that most of the celebrity ones are quite gaudy!

^^ It was once explained to me by a jeweler at the Dallas headquarters of Neiman Marcus that some local monied brides choose to wear their wedding rings on their left hand all the time and then wear their engagement rings on their right when they go out with DH. That might be a solution for your friend. Or she could talk her DH into getting her a version that she would feel comfortable wearing full time and leave the big killer in the safe (where it costs 6x less to insure).

I personally love my big headlight engagement ring and happily wear it every day.

I like this photo. The ring is quite a nice size but the colour does look odd.

Also, its nice to see a Celeb with Nice, Short, Natural nails.

Jennifers original ring is very simple and small. right after she married him I think it was joan rivers or wendy williams who asked to see it and she just said bye when they commented on its size. The blue diamond was purchased well after they married.
