Here's a question, would you settle for a small ring now if you knew you would get a bigger one later, or would you want your actual ring now? I'm wondering because the way my boyfriends buget is now, this type of ring is no where in my near future.
If I could get my ideal ring now, this is exactly what I want (now if I get it is the question). I don't think that it is too gaudy, I would love to have my wedding band set in stone to really set my ring off, then I want my engagement ring to be princess cut, I would love platinum, but I've seen some pretty white gold rings. And the caret size, I'd love 2

, but 1.5 is very nice too. Hopefully by the time me and my boyfriend are ready to get engaged, I'll be suprised with an amazing ring. Me and my friend were just looking at rings yesterday.
