Hey iv found my stone! However now I'm thinking should I leave it as a solitare or put a very small halo around it.

What do you all think? Classic solitare or halo?
 
Hi Zahzah, which one did you finally find? I think the choice you linked here was very nice as well, nice color and I think that VS2 is perfectly fine. As I mentioned to you before elsewhere I too would suggest to not only look for a GIA X. The advise Ame gave you was similar to what I gave you; e.g., in the stones I am looking at right now the difference between say a 47 pointer and a 50 is around 300 Euros, there by sacrificing just a few points you could save a lot if you wanted to, then again going with half a carat is not a bad idea either.
 
Classic. It could be dressed up or down. Halos are a little too fancy to me for everyday wear.
