Mrs. H, your collection is out of control! I love that Trellis ring. I drool over it at BTD all the time. There's no way I can get one right now because I'm getting one of the new Statement Rings they've got all over te place; for the unitiated a statment ring is the equivalent of the cocktail ring but even bolder, I think. I have a dress I'm scraping up for, a Micahel Kors dress that's I saw on TV and fell in love with. I don't know what I'm going to wear it to but I want it. I think I can get away with not eating and hopefully it'll be on sale when I get enough money for it. Look at THIS dress!

Socal, being a snob is okay as long as you're nice when you step on a sales girl's hand as she picks up the credit card you threw at her. LOL

Selecting a stone in the H and I range and maybe J range will give the stone a yellowish cast which would, depending on your job, totally pass muster. If it's a large stone, get the yellower colors so it looks as if you got a bigger stone but it's lower quality and thus less expensive. Of course, having an exceptional cut like Hearts & Arrows so it still sparkles will offset the color discrepancy. Don't get a large moissanite as that green tint is crazy ugly.

The simulants we are talking about do not look cheap by any means. It would stand up at any cocktail party, Republican fundraiser or funeral you could possibly go to. Repping allows you to save money on things you love so you can buy things that are more important, like . . . more reps! I'm teasing . . . or am I?
