Heidi Klum Seen With Wedding Ring On

Friday, February 3rd, 2012

Has it become fashionable in Hollywood to be seen with your wedding ring on even after you’ve separated and you are on the road to divorce? There are many – both men and women celebrities that seem to like the idea of keeping their wedding ring on almost as though they want to let the world know that they have not moved on from their marriage. Heidi Klum is the latest on the bandwagon and she is still wearing her ring though the media is full of reports of how she and Seal have been having huge marriage problems and they have separated.
And yet, pictures have surfaced of Heidi dropping her kids off for a karate class with her wedding ring very much on her finger. What she did do however, was to turn the ring around so the diamond wasn’t visible. So why is she wearing it? For the sake of the kids? The strange thing is, Seal has also said that he will wear his wedding ring because he feels that a couple separating does not mean that the wedding ring should be removed at once.
One wonders if this is going to be a new trend among celebrities. Considering the huge amounts they spend on their engagement rings and wedding rings, will they keep them on after they go their separate ways? What if a person gets married four or five times – quite common in their world – will their fingers then be decorated with rings like notches on a totem pole? Food for thought indeed!

Diamond Rings And Diamond Jewellery Dazzle At Screen Actors Guild Award Ceremony

Thursday, February 2nd, 2012

The stars dazzled and so did the diamonds and there seemed no end to the dazzle and shine of these wonderful gemstones at the prestigious Screen Actors Guild Awards. Ever since it was instituted in 1995, this awards ceremony has been a much awaited annual affair and the awards have been very prized because the selection and the awarding is done by the actors – a peer group.
This year’s ceremony saw Penelope Miller draped in diamonds by one of the leading American diamond jewellers – Blue Nile. She had on a stunning sapphire and diamond ring, matching earrings and a matching bracelet – all of them caught the light and shimmered and shone on the red carpet and inside. These pieces were a part of what the company calls the Extraordinary Collection and they are specially designed for wearing on the red carpet for the best Hollywood events so the whole world can see their creations.
The same actress wore a vintage 10-carat diamond cuff the previous night at the Directors Guild Awards and this too was by the same jeweller. There have been others who have been draped in diamonds too – Nancy Carell and her husband Steve Carell being among them. It really is a great opportunity for jewellers to showcase their best pieces at events like these – it’s a one way ticket to displaying them at their best and getting orders for unique jewellery.

New Engagement Ring App For Android Phones

Monday, January 30th, 2012

There seems to be an app for just about everything today. An app to message, an app to remind you of what to do, an app to list your tasks, an app to make your appliances more intelligent and one wonders how long it will be before there’s an app that will breathe and do everything else for you! So why should engagement rings be left out in the cold?
There’s a jeweller who has an app now that makes choosing engagement rings much easier. Taking today’s audience into account, this app is available for iPhones, Android phones as well as for social networking sites like Facebook. So what does this app help you do? It lets you rotate the image of the diamond engagement ring any which way you want so you can see it from all and any angle. It also lets you view the engagement ring as it would look on a hand. The great thing about is the fact that there are so many options when it comes to angles, types and changing things around like the size of the diamond or the setting to see how it would look in every metal.
While choosing an engagement ring today, men want everyone’s opinions – their friends, family et al seem to be involved in the decision-making process. Maybe that is what the speed of technology has done to people – make them able to connect so fast that they want everyone they know to come on board when it means making a decision like this. When there is an incredible app like this one, it means the person can choose the options and send it off immediately to anyone whose opinion they value and wait a few minutes for a decision. For a generation that shares every single waking moment with an audience, this is a very welcome app indeed.

Special Valentine’s Day Contest With Diamond Engagement Ring Prize

Sunday, January 29th, 2012

The Rivergate Shopping Centre has organised something really special for Valentine’s Day. What more could lovers ask for than a beautiful diamond engagement ring free? That’s what the winning couple will get in the special contest that they have organised. Considering that Valentine’s Day is just a couple of weeks away, couples who are thinking about getting married might be wise to enter this contest and see if they are the ones who get lucky.
The diamond engagement ring is worth ÂŁ2000 and any couple knows that is not something to be scoffed at. The Centre has joined hands with the John Stewart Jewellers and their contest is called the Mr. And Mrs. Contest. The couples who enter the contest will have to star in a quiz show and this show has been designed along the lines of a similar one way back in the seventies. Once the field has been narrowed down to five couples, there will be a live event in which all will have to participate and the winners can get engaged right there at the event with the diamond ring they win.
According to the organisers, the ring is stunning and it’s going to be a really lucky couple who will be winning it. A ring to propose with, a live TV appearance and even better, a live event – could a couple really ask for more? For couples who want to take a look at the ring before they decide to enter the contest, the ring is on display at the jeweller’s show window. What a wonderful idea for Valentine’s Day, the festival for lovers!

Is Jessica Biel Going To Get Second Engagement Ring?

Saturday, January 28th, 2012

If rumours are to be believed, Justin Timberlake proposed to girlfriend Jessica Biel with a diamond ring. Only it was a rather small diamond ring and apparently she wanted something that was a bit more showy. Maybe he thought small was classy and elegant but it looks like she was looking for a bit more bling. Which is why even though the rumours about their engagement are so hot, there’s no ring to be seen.
According to sources, Justin proposed to her last month in Wyoming where they were on holiday. However, it seems that she wasn’t amused with the minimalistic diamond engagement ring. So according to people in the know, Justin Timberlake is going to ask his mother for help to help him choose a more suitable ring. He feels that she really should be given what she wants.
Of course, there are those who say that Justin proposed to Jessica because he wanted her to stop about his straying and it looks like there have been a number of instances where he was suspected of having played the field. This engagement of course would put those rumours to rest. And it would also, so they say, help her to keep quiet because his friends feel that he has no desire to get married any time in their near future. Justin is known to just love his single status and his freedom so it might be a long while before they actually get married. However, he obviously did not want to lose her so now it looks like he has the best of both worlds.

Arg, Lydia And An Engagement Ring

Thursday, January 26th, 2012

Is there excitement or cynicism about Argwas having been seen at a jewellery store looking at diamond rings? He was spotted at a Loughton jeweller a few days ago and we wonder how the TV cameras were there so conveniently so the world could know about this move. All this of course, just before the beginning of the new TOWIE series – well, you can add two and two and see where it goes!
While he was examining the engagement rings, he was also seen to be texting someone no doubt sending them pictures and asking for their opinions. Was he sending the texts to a friend or was he asking Lydia? After all, she does have a lot of style and she wouldn’t want a diamond engagement ring that didn’t quite match up to what she expected.
What stood out was that Arg looked like the whole thing was one boring chore and not something that he was excited about. Considering that the two are supposed to be moving in together, it seems a bit strange that he is so untouched by any sense of excitement. There was a strong rumour recently that Lydia was pregnant but a few days ago, the couple denied it. This, after tweets from Arg about a little one on the way. Can you expect fans to be other than cynical about all these rumours, putting them all down as just ways of getting eyeballs for the show.

An Indiana Jones-Inspired Engagement Ring

Wednesday, January 25th, 2012

How far will people go to get an engagement ring that is unique? This man went the wholeni9ne yards and more because he knew his girlfriend was a huge Indiana Jones fan and he wanted to show just how much he cared enough to give her something that she would treasure. So he set out to design a ring that would be like no other but would be custom made and not off the shelf.
First, the engagement ring and then the proposal. He designed the ring with a bullwhip and then went on to look for a jewellery designer in Las Vegas, America to make it for him. It is a yellow diamond engagement ring and the colour of the diamond is reminiscent of the Idol in the series. The Idol might not ring a bell for everyone even if one has seen the movie or movies as the case may be but for an avid fan, it would be just the right button to push. And yellow happens to be her favourite colour. However, the ring took some time coming so here’s how the proposal went.
The guy proposed with a ring box and when the girl said Yes, he gave it to her. She opened it to find just sand inside the box and any other woman might have said No but not her. She understood the significance. This was to buy time till the ring got ready. When he did get the ring, he made a box fashioned out of old stuff to make it look like ruins inside and gave it to her with four other boxes, asking her to choose and choose wisely as it happens in the movie. If he has gone to so much trouble over the ring, one wonders what their wedding theme will be like!

Monday, January 23rd, 2012

On New Year’s Eve, Johnny got married and he now wears a wedding ring. He got married to a lawyer named Victor Voronov and they came together to their press conference as newlyweds for the first time. It was at this press conference that he announced that he was getting back into figure skating on a competitive basis and that he would be very much a part of the 2014 Sochi Olympics.
The diamond wedding ring sparkled on his finger and he flaunted it. It is a gold ring with a band of gold and on either side, there is a row of sparkling diamonds. What a bit of bling for a wedding ring. He happily posed for pictures and made sure the ring was very visible so the media people could get some really great shots of it.
Johnny Weir is a figure skater from America who has been champion for three years nationally and has won third place in the international competitive figure skating championships four years ago, He has won a number of awards and was junior international champion ten years ago. He began to skate when he was twelve and he has been in most of the major tournaments since then. His fans helped an asteroid to be named after him. He came out of the closet a few years ago and is now married and they will both have the surname Weir-Voronov. He has had a book published and has even recorded a single which has been released.

Holly Valance’s On-Off Diamond Engagement Ring

Saturday, January 21st, 2012

Ever since business tycoon Nick Candy proposed to Holly Valance in the Maldives over the Christmas/New Year break, all eyes have been on her ring finger as she sashays forth between dos and events in London. However, she seems to be rather shy of flaunting it and even when Nick was with her, there were occasions when her ring was not on her finger.
She was seen at the Radio Times Cover Party and at the Faberge Big Egg Hunt party which was held at Quintessentially. The party kicked off the egg hunt all over London and these proceeds will go towards a charity for children and there are many celebrities who have been involved in this project. Her huge diamond engagement ring, however, seems to be off her finger for most of the time since they have got back after their holiday. So the only explanation seems to be that it has gone to be resized. With such a huge diamond, they wouldn’t want to take the chance of the ring slipping off just because it is a tad loose.
The engagement ring was very much on again at the Radio Times party and she was all dressed up too – in gold with shiny shoes with her ring flashing as she walked into Claridge’s for the party. The two of them met in 2009 and they moved in together the following year and she was really happy – if you go by her excited tweets when he proposed to her in the Maldives just before Christmas. The billionaire tycoon and she seem to be made for each other and are so happy in each other’s company.

11-Carat Diamond Engagement Ring Riddle Solved

Thursday, January 19th, 2012

The ring went missing a little before Christmas Day last year and the couple from Florida who it belonged to wanted to solve the mystery of the missing ring. The ring had been on the dresser, in a cup and it had disappeared. So the couple hired a private detective who had been a policeman to help them get the ring back. They also announced a huge reward.
The policeman began by giving all the people who could have been in the house a polygraph test. Simultaneously, he also scoured all the pawn shops in the neighbourhood and then went further afield, even to New York. After all, anyone would remember an emerald cut 11-carat diamond engagement ring that had been put up for sale. The cleaning lady in the house failed the test and he realised that she was a suspect. However, she avoided him and the police had to be called in to take her for questioning.
She had taken the diamond ring and sold it to buy food and Christmas presents for her children and as well as pay off some bills. She had taken it to a jeweller and told him that she had inherited from an aunt who died. She has been arrested and charged. The jeweller got the reward money and the couple are happy that they hired a private detective to help them find the ring which is not just valuable but also of great sentimental value to them.

Cher Lloyd’s Diamond Ring On Tattooed Finger

Wednesday, January 18th, 2012

The X Factor star has apparently been wearing a diamond ring on her finger for over a month now. It looks like the 18-year old singer and her boyfriend Craig Monk are engaged. He is 21 and he is a hairdresser and they had both gone together in November to Los Angeles in America. That was when people noticed the small diamond ring on her left hand ring finger.
They have been together for about nine months now and she has a small heart tattooed on that finger. Now she wears the diamond engagement ring over the tattoo. Even though she denied the news in the beginning, she is now very open about the fact that they are engaged and she tells everyone that it is Craig who helps her to stay sane. Sources say that she is madly in love with him and he is very supportive of her.
Cher Lloyd is from Worcestershire and her net worth is a lot considering just how her fame has spread thanks to the X Factor. Simon Cowell signed her up with his company after the finals and when Swagger Jagger, her first album was released it climbed to the top in the UK charts. She’s had a great deal of success and she’s still so young. Too young to get engaged? Well, some think so but for her, Craig is everything that is sweet, supportive and secure right now and that is what she wants on her life right now.
