It is DH and I's 10th wedding anniversary soon and he has given me a budget of £3500 - £4000 to spend!
I am torn between the two following options:
A: Blowing it all on this Blue Nile ring, and possibly a single Tiffany DBTY bracelet (in RG or Platinum, not decided)
Total after tax etc £3986.60
B: This smaller RG ring, Diamond Bracelet, Diamond studs, and a custom made aquamarine and diamond half eternity
Total after tax etc £3414 ish
Pros/cons of A; As DH Tells me, the only piece of jewellery I have ever wished for is a really nice full eternity. But I am a SAHM and don't live a flash lifestyle. Generally people I mix with a understated and don't wear much jewellery and I hate drawing attention to myself. Bigger diamonds don't seem as common in the UK as USA.
Also, would only get 1 item (though may be able to swing a DBTY bracelet)
Pros/Cons of B; I have the matching WG eternity ring and I like to stack so they would look good together I think. I will be getting a RG cuff and this is a good way of mixing RG in.
I don't have any diamond studs and I think they would be great for everyday, the bracelet too could be worn everyday as it is understated.
I love Aquamarine, plus it's my birthstone and I don't have it in a ring, only a bracelet (though I do favour full over half eternity's generally).
It does seem to be a lot of dis-jointed items, though I could wear them all everyday.
So WWYD? I have a very small jewellery collection at the moment, and I do like to switch my rings and bracelets around quite a bit.
Thank you!
