Hint, hint: How to let him know the perfect diamond for you.
If the man of your dreams is the type who'll want to surprise you with a diamond, here are some ways to give him the guidance he needs – and would, most likely, appreciate. After all, he wants that moment when he presents you with your diamond to be as perfect as you do:
Discuss your preferences with your friends and family, since he might ask them for some guidance. And be sure to let them know your ring size!
Comment on the diamonds your friends are wearing. For instance, you might say “Alison's diamond is really beautiful…I think an emerald is definitely the most elegant shape.”
Point out diamonds you've seen in magazines, or tear out an ad showing a diamond you like and leave it on a table where he might see it.
If you've seen the diamond of your dreams in a jewelry store, ask the sales person for his or her business card. If you're comfortable being up front about it, give the card to your intended. Otherwise, leave it in a place where it might see it. Find an authorized Leo Diamond® Jeweler near you.
If you see something you like online – like The Leo Diamond– send him a link to the page by email. (Or have someone do it for you.)
The most popular diamond engagement rings are the ones with a solitaire diamond, but engagement rings with a larger center stone flanked by two smaller diamonds are on the rise.
