That is an AMAZING blue on that ring! I love it! Your story was also so much fun to read. It sounds like you both had a blast. I love shopping with like-minded friends!

Thanks everyone for your kind comments!

The sapphire is 1.75 ct and the diamonds are 1.25 tcw.

I don't know the diamond specs because someone (ahem ... Mr. Dior) has mislaid the receipt. In person, the sapphire looks bigger, so I'm guessing sapphires and diamonds are measured differently?? This is my first sapphire, so I'm just learning the ropes. Imagine the shock when I discovered it's the stone for purity. lol.

Cute story, very entertaining and with a wonderful and gorgeous present at the end for you! I never heard of this show either. But I relate to having an unusual reality show crush...when I used to watch Storage Wars, I (almost 40) had a crush on Barry (in his 60's) that I too confessed to my husband.:kiss:

Too funny. I saw Barry in the security line next to mine at LAX last October. I am pleased to report that he's just as fine in real life.

This is 2 reality TV star sightings in two trips. Prior to that, I'd only ever seen Alanis Morisette shopping for veggies at Capers in Vancouver.

Clearly, I need to move south.

Hi DrDior,

What a cute and fun story! Congrats seeing your crush and getting your beautiful ring. What a gorgeous color of sapphire.

OMG... I have no idea that Yosef (Yossi) is on the show Beverly Hills Pawn. Did not know until i read this thread and i google to and see the layout. I went to Dina Collection at Beverly Hills back in May at Memorial Day weekend and met him. My kids were asleep so my DH in the car with them so i only do a quick scout out. The SA called him out to show me a gorgeous stone... she said "let me go get Yossi". He came out and shook my hand and show me 4ct dream stone... and gave me his card but it said Yosef. I am terrible with name. I asked him "is this your card? Who is Yosef"? yes, i am so terrible with name. He is very handsome. I still remember what he dressed that day... nice tailored grey suit.

Thank you. There is a very real possibility that I may have drooled a bit.

I love this story. If it would've been me, I probably would've turned beet red and started to mumble nonsense. Lol
