Buying my girlfriend a ring... — Page 2

I like the walmart heart-shapped rings, I think they're very pretty, but I love simplisity in jewlry. They're both nice though. I do like all the color options on the ones from WalMart. Just pick it out based on her, and you'll be fine. Its a very sweet gesture.

I agree. I'm sure your girlfriend will love anything you give her truly. It's the thought that counts and that being said I'm sure she'll love anything you give her.

When's her birthday?

Sorry, idk how to make more than one link title at a time...so you get the whole URL!! Teehee. These are some of the rings that I found that I think are awesome

http://www.jewelrytelevision.com/estore/product.asp?up=Gift%20Center&product_id=GST133L-7 This ring is very simplistic yet classy. $100 dollars.

http://www.zales.com/catalog/ProductDetail.aspx?productID=20121405&queryby=c&categoryId=1&pageNum=0&sortType=rank_over+asc+%2crank+asc&newFilter=Style%3aRing&parentSearchId=0&gnFlag=1 This one's for my goofy pleasures...I'm working on my uncle to get my this ring, I think it's just gorgeous and unlike any other that I have seen--but I'm guessing a little to rich for your budget.

http://www.jewelrytelevision.com/estore/product.asp?up=Gift%20Center&product_id=TCM001-5 I think this is very unique, and still very stunning. It's cheaper though, Idk if you'd call it "cheap" looking though, it's all a matter of opinion.

http://www.zales.com/catalog/ProductDetail.aspx?productID=15145410&queryby=c&categoryId=1&pageNum=2&sortType=Price+ASC&newFilter=Style%3aRing&parentSearchId=0&gnFlag=1 This one's on sale for $100. I feel it is very classy but safe.

http://www.zales.com/catalog/ProductDetail.aspx?productID=15772809&queryby=c&categoryId=1&pageNum=2&sortType=Price+ASC&newFilter=Style%3aRing&parentSearchId=0&gnFlag=1 I think this is my favorite (besides the one with all the scattered diamonds). It is very unique, and not something you are going to show your friends and end up saying "oh...you have it too..." Also on sale for $100!

Not that I don't love the rings you picked out...these are just more options!! She's gonna love w/e u get her!

I like the first one a lot. Very pretty.

My boyfriend got me a ring for my birthday last year... I wear it all the time. The thought and the sneaking around he had to do to find out my ring size made it all that much more special to me.

---

Why is it funny? lol it was cute the way he went about it

---

Ooooooooooooh that kind of funny.... you'll have to forgive me -- it was that kind of day at work today haha Stuff like that doesn't usually fly over my head!

Yeah, it was very cute and very sweet.. I still wear it all the time even though I've lost weight since last year and it no longer fits my ring finger.

Back to the topic at hand, I still vote for the first ring

---

i, too, like the first one better!

If anyone wants to buy me a ring, they buy me Tiffanys. That's it. If they can't afford it, then they can't afford me. That's just me though.

iflit is absolutely correct.

Go with a pendant. A lovely blue stone on a silver chain will look stunning (especially with a tan!)

And, remember, a ring is definitely sending a signal...one neither of you might be ready for. A pendant is a simple, loving gesture!

Edited to say:

So...I'm a sucker for a romantic, so I searched for you. Turns out April's birthstone is diamond (luck you). I found this on overstock.com. It's very sweet and under $100. Of course, you can get a larger stone with Cubic Zirconia, but this is a lovely look that will flatter all types of women.

I'm a girl-lovin'-girl - and I'm also a sucker for jewelry from my girlfriend. Rings mean a lot, they're very special. If she wears silver jewelry, get her a silver or white-gold ring. I like the top one of the two you have there...but again, make sure it's a color she wears/likes a lot.

---

Captain_Obvious, you sound just like me haha

Im a sucker for T&Co myself.... actually, I just said 'happy new job to me' with a pretty new ring from there.... but I digress lol

I agree that if she tends to wear silver, go with a silver or white gold ring. I don't wear a lot of gold myself -- even though I do like it -- silver looks better on me.

Oh, wow! Thank you, Winokur, for all those suggestions! That second-to-last one is beautiful...

I've been off-handedly asking her favorite colors and so on, so I've got an idea of colors...and I thought the birth stone for April was Cubic Zirconia? Well, we can pretend it is for the sake of money. I've actually got two Cubic Zirconia rings in my favorites...

But I think I'll probably get the - ahem - WalMart one. Money is a huge issue right now, though I do have 'til April to save up. Actually, right now, I should be worrying about what kind of chocolates and flowers to get her for Valentine's Day. Any suggestions?

Idk how wide spread the Bernstein’s Candy industry is...but their melt-aways are to-die-for!! Literally, and not too expensive either. Care to spring $28 for a dozen white (or red) chocolate roses? Now that would make me melt if I got those for V-day. http://www.candydirect.com/bouquets/bouquets8.html This site has some cute candy gifts for V-day.
