Hi,
Hubby agrees to letting me have an upgrade on my ring. Question is, I can't decide which one to go for. It's a one time deal and it has to be something I will be in love with forever. My current ring is the Classic Solitaire in 0.47 carat. I don't want anything huge. Went to Tiffany yesterday and tried on some rings. I've always had a soft spot for the Ribbon ring. The size I tried on was 0.55 and it looked great. I also tried on the Soleste in 0.7?? Can't remember but it also looked nice. I also tried on a 1 carat Classic Solitaire but I didn't like it as I'm not a huge fan of thick bands. I do like the Round Brilliant with bead set band but my friends have a good point: any jeweller can make a similar ring like that, not everyone would notice right away that it's Tiffany. But no jeweller can ever recreate a Ribbon ring or Soleste. I also wanted to try on the Embrace but they didn't have it and they also didn't have the Round Brilliant bead set border. Anyways, I'm quite set on either the Ribbon or the Soleste. And I would like it in the 0.55-0.80carat range. Nothing bigger as the bigger carats looked too big and didn't look as nice. So, question is, Ribbon or Soleste? Which one stands the best of time? Soleste is still quite new. Will halos/double halos be a timeless classic? Is the Ribbon not timeless/classic enough and just more stylish? Will the Ribbon still look good on a 40 or 50 yr old hand?? What do you ladies think? Thanks in advance!

. Which means when he gets me Chanel, prices will have already gone up...and because we have another baby on the way, it makes it harder for him to do both.
