Thanks for everyone’s input!

I decided to go for platinum and I am OBSESSED

Congratulations! The stone looks like the perfect size on your hand and I love that you're mixing it up with the gold VCA and Cartier bracelets (I may be biased because I also have a platinum engagement ring but otherwise wear yellow gold jewelry. I have an extra small Cartier trinity ring as a wedding band to tie it all together). Your mix really looks fabulous!

thank you so much for your kind words!!! I was also unsure what size diamond to go for, but I thought this was the best size for me. I don’t want anything TOO big or flashy, but I wanted it to be noticeable. I bet your set is also gorgeous! Id love to see it :heart: :smile:

It's not a Tiffany ring so it may be OT but here it is (excuse my winter-dry hands). I also have eternity bands but, like you, I don't want to be too blingy so I prefer the trinity band with my engagement ring. My sidestones are french cuts rather than brilliant cut and that also keeps the look more subtle and lets my center stone be the focal point.

SO SO Beautiful!! They look so great together and it really lets the diamond be the star of the show while still giving something unique to the stack! I might do a rose gold wedding band now!

Thank you so much! I like having a combination that is tailored to my personality so imho if you want a rose gold band that is exactly what you should do. I'm sure you'll add other bands to your collection as you celebrate anniversaries, etc., so you'll be able to mix and match to suit your mood. You have such a gorgeous, classic engagement ring and it will look fantastic with so many different bands that your options are endless. Have fun choosing your band and let us know what you pick!

Congratulations!!! The platinum looks stunning on you. Which wedding band did you select? I am partial to the .57 Embrace diamond band. Also, what size is your diamond? It looks perfect on your hand.

thank you!!! The diamond is 1.4 carats and my ring size is 5.5. I compared it to a 1.5 carat and I really couldn’t tell a difference in size at all.
And for bands, I haven’t decided yet!! Do you have a picture of the embrace? That is a big contender. I also love the plain knife edge band too. Maybe I’ll get both for different occasions hahaha :biggrin:

CLASSIC!!! The Embrace is the classic, seven stone diamond band. It comes in three sizes. I would recommend getting a plain band and a diamond band so you have options.

I am currently looking for e-rings and I’ve fallen in love with the Tiffany setting! Now I have to decide if I want the rose gold band or the classic platinum.
Does anyone have the rose gold band and could show me pics of how it looks on you? I am afraid the rose gold will wear off in the future, is trendy, not as sturdy, etc. But I loooove how it looks :biggrin:

Please help me choose!! I have photos attached with rose gold and platinum on me for reference.
Thanks so much :heart::heart::heart:

As much as I love the look of rose gold, platinum is simply far more durable and easier to maintain looking new over time.
