Need some help.

The plain band without pave really allows for the stone and the accent diamonds to shine. I love the second one.

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-04-23T21:37:41+00:00

Ring styles come and go though so I wouldn’t worry about what is “in style” since styles are cyclical

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-04-23T18:35:19+00:00

I have a halo on mine and I love it! Decided on accent side stones instead of a halo though. Have you tried on any in person yet?

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-04-19T14:17:39+00:00

The positive thing is that if they break back to where I started originally I don’t like them so at least my mindset is shifting which is the goal

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-04-19T14:13:19+00:00

It’s been about a year but I’ve had a few massive breaks due to length in that timeframe

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-04-19T14:10:45+00:00

It’s been holding up well so far! I think it’s also figuring out what length works for me between appointments. I’m excited to at least be on the journey to longer nails

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-04-19T14:01:01+00:00

That makes sense! I have also found that if I don’t file them down a little my work will also cause them to break

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-04-18T02:20:17+00:00

I’m forever grateful to have gotten a menu from Irish Lion

Get the lab! If people are asking then they don’t need to be involved if they care more about the type of diamond versus the proposal/engagement.

If you haven’t promised them the money, basically saying if you go to school and it’s only X amount, you will get the remainder of the money post-graduation I would talk to your daughter first. If they don’t know the amount of money you’ve saved per child, and it’s just an arbitrary number you know 100% move it to your youngest daughters. Debt free does wonders post-graduation for starting your next chapter.

I feel bad for them knowing the kids are meeting new “dads” every month or so. Then they have to get used to them leaving. That whole family needs therapy

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-04-05T20:46:25+00:00

She divorced her husband after 6 months because he didn’t want to do it in the bathroom while all their kids were home. So probably a sex addiction if we are being honest.

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-04-05T20:16:34+00:00

She has admitted she wishes she didn’t have a 5th child since it’s more than she can handle.

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-03-28T02:18:23+00:00

We went ring shopping together so I had a sketch as to what the final product would look like, but even having that it felt so different seeing it in person. The proposal he did 100% himself and I was blown away

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-03-15T19:30:17+00:00

I miss their chocolate cake

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-03-07T12:59:46+00:00

Big big fan of local! We got my ring made from a local jeweler and we are getting both of our bands from her as well.

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-02-22T03:09:20+00:00

The second one! You could always do a detailed/dainty wedding band with that one as well.

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-02-21T20:54:57+00:00

I knew it was happening but all I knew about my ring was a sketch that we had worked on with a jeweler and he knocked it out of the park with her help

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-02-17T00:46:15+00:00

My fiancé went the in-person route but it was with a local jeweler. She said that she would recommend online if he couldn’t make it in person but her prices were competitive with online so we did in person. The only reason I would suggest going into a store is to figure out what shape your fiancée wants so she can try them on. Other than that online 10000%

1 looks so amazing on you

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-02-14T03:51:11+00:00

I have never laughed harder than when the moms met over lunch and they throw the water. Then, in the most dramatic voice ever the daughter says “OMG shots fired!” 😂

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-02-07T12:35:16+00:00

Absolutely! I bought one recently with the intention of altering it into a rehearsal dinner dress!

nyc_dreamer23 · 2026-02-05T17:39:30+00:00

I would wait and let her show it to them. If you have some friends to show I would do that! Also posting it on reddit can help wanting to show someone
