When a man decides to propose marriage, choosing the engagement ring can be very challenging. Indeed, many men find this to be stressful, as each wants a ring design that his partner likes. When looking at engagement rings, there are several key components - the metal, the precious stones, and, of course, the ring setting.

The Halo Setting

The halo setting is very popular for several reasons, the main one being that the halo setting makes the centre stone seem larger than it actually is, as the central stone is usually surrounded by smaller pavé diamonds. If the accent stones are a different colour to the central diamond, this attracts your attention to the main diamond.

Concealing the Central Prongs

If the design is right, the halo setting can conceal the centre stone prongs, which adds to the visual appeal, and if you are looking for some ring design inspiration, a Google image search will bring you a few design ideas. Rather than selecting an existing ring, you can have the ring made by a custom jeweller.

Halo Shape

The halo setting could be circular, oval, heart-shaped, square, or even rectangular in shape. If you have the ring custom-made, you can design the halo shape to suit you. Today’s modern custom jeweller uses 3D computer imaging, which allows the client to actually see the design prior to creating the ring.

Main Ring Components

The main components of a ring are as follows:

·         The band (choice of metal)

·         The setting

·         The precious stones

When designing a diamond engagement ring, you are able to choose all of the above to create a truly unique ring design, and many couples do prefer a unique ring design as a symbol of undying love that is as unique as the ring itself.  

Halo Design Ideas

With beautiful halo engagement rings you can find at online jewellers, you can easily view many fine examples until you find exactly what you are looking for. You could, for example, select a centre diamond and use emeralds, sapphires or rubies, which adds colour to the ring. You could also opt for a heart-shaped halo setting as it is the ideal shape for a romantic. If you talk to a custom jeweller, he or she can show you many fine examples of halo designs. The ring designer usually recommends that the central stone and the pave stones should be the same colour and quality, as this complements the main central stone.

Having a diamond engagement ring custom made is actually no more costly than acquiring a ring from the jewellery store window, and with a unique diamond ring, you know that it is the only one in the world. Any women would be overjoyed to receive a diamond engagement ring that is a one-of-a-kind, and if you know your partner well, then you can design the ring with some confidence that the recipient will love the design.

If you were to ask me, this particular bridesmaids dress captivated my interest. Velvet bridesmaids dresses just steer up my mind. Because of the type of the fabric. There is just this sass to it. It is unexplainable I mean. The texture of the fabric of a velvet is like a delicious chocolate. It is sweet and lovely.

I have not yet introduced this online boutique. But since they have some of the most fabulous collection of bridesmaids dresses that is oh so velvety I have to say. The name of this online shop is mychicdress and if you have not yet checked them out. You better see their online store. Especially the dresses that are available in their collection.  Everything looks so beautiful really. I can just look for a long time and get lost on the Internet escapade. It is nice how everything is well connected on the internet and seamless. 

Even if some parts of the world is in this pandemic crisis. I still feel the benefits towards the use of the internet. The bio availability of online shops like the online boutique that I have just told above is amazing. Since within one click we can get our beautiful clothes. The dresses look so lovely, I tell you. Their products are very affordable you see. Between the shops that we see in the mall and the online shops. As for me I prefer online. Even before the pandemic, for 5 years I only buy online. I never buy in shops really. I just buy food and groceries in the physical shops. Well I digress already but yeah you should check out mychicdress.com and you would definitely get what I mean. The only downside of the pandemic for me is that I cannot see the faces and expressions of people. Other than that it is good. The cases have been becoming okay already anyways I think at least in where I live. But I know human’s immune defenses are strong so. No need to be scared.

When I wear yellow, I attach a meaning that is a yellow color is like cheerful. So when I wear a yellow dress it makes me more happy in a way. Since the shading is bright like the sun. Yes my natural skin tone is tanned warm and my hair is black currently which compliments me. Wearing a yellow halter neck dress is like a warm hug. Me hugging myself, like self hug. It is cute right? Well I adore it. So maybe you will see me more on my outfits with yellow outfits and black outfits also. Since black outfit is like a strong stolid color that I like as well. 

This halter neck dress is from my old sponsor but I love to wear it in any occasion. I mean it is monochromatic in a way if I would style it with neutral shoes, and outerwear. It would suit in any setting. A fabulous piece to the wardrobe of you ask me. The best thing about wearing a dress that you like is that it makes you happy already. So the more I wear a yellow outfit. The more cheerful my mood become.

I was putting on my eyeshadows yesterday and then suddenly, woah! Oh no! I am running out of the neutral palette, and I need also black shading for the smokey eyes effect. What the heck do I do? Ha ha ha. So I have to think of a way. I don’t really like going out nowadays because of the social distancing and the pandemic. I prefer just staying home to be sure I would not contract that virus, since I have asthma. What is left to reveal on your face during these times? The answer is your eyes! Yeah it is the only thing that is not covered. Am I right? Everyone is just wearing face mask. But yeah, you can remove it when you reach home or on your friends home. But still you can never go out without putting on eyeshadows right? If you love putting on eyeshadows, you will be happy when I share this information about the online shop that I have known. So keep on reading my article today.

I wanted to style my ears without having to punch another piercing and that is through ear cuffs. I love how gorgeous sterling silver ear cuffs are. Probably I will do piercing in another time but for now this is so fine to wear. I am wearing also a layered necklace here which is simple but gorgeous. So I hope you enjoyed this post.
