    Make Sure Your Occasion Jewelry Is Conflict-Free With Diamond ...

    Not all diamonds are a girl's best friend. No one wants to look down at their jewelry and know that their stone caused conflict in far away countries and harm to their planet (thoughts we can't escape after seeing "Blood Diamond" and reading eco-friendly websites). So what do we do? Give up diamonds? The answer lies in Diamond Nexus Labs. This company was eco-friendly long before the "green" craze, and all of their diamonds are both environmentally friendly and conflict-free. However, with all the benefits to these stones, you won't be sacrificing quality-- something you'd never dream of giving up when it comes to engagement rings or special occasion jewelry.

    Ever since Marilyn Monroe famously sang a breathy rendition of "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend" in the 1953 film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, that one phrase has been the motto for the women who love their diamonds. Sure, every girl would love to be draped in jewels by Harry Winston or Tiffany's, but can we really afford it without creditors hounding our every step? There's no need to be disheartened because there's more than a fair share of wallet-friendly bling out there! Take a look at the Diamonds On My Neck Necklace for instance. For less than $25, you'll get a cutout brass diamond shaped pendant. A sure conversation piece, you can wear it alone or pile it on with the rest of your faux-bling! It's not a substitute for the real thing of course, but shouldn't your real best friend be someone you can actually have a conversation with?


    Price: $24

    Diamonds may be forever but it could take what seems like forever before you can save enough to splurge on them, especially in today's economy. And with gold prices in the stratosphere, what's a fashionista to do? Turn to vintage costume jewelry! Instead of spending money on new clothes this season, why not try adding a handful of unique vintage jewelry pieces to punch up the items already hanging in your closet? By choosing rhinestones over diamonds, baked enamel over turquoise, and semi-precious stones over precious stones, you can razzle and dazzle on a much lower budget without sacrificing an ounce of style. Plus, if you select wisely, you might even see a 10-15% gain in value as the years pass by. Just click the slideshow for a hand-picked selection of great vintage costume jewelry choices.

    As the adage goes, diamonds are a girl's best friend. As far as Valentine's Day gifts go, flowers wilt and chocolate inevitably goes from lips to hips pretty quickly. And a diamond (or diamonds as the case may be!) doesn't have to been a huge investment, or a lifetime commitment. For men shopping for your wife, girlfriend, sweetheart, secret office crush...there's something for everybody out there, and if you're the slightest bit unsure, Dior's ''Oui' diamond ring makes the perfect statement. For girls, we all know it doesn't hurt to steer those men in the right direction, or we can shop for our friends, mothers, sisters, and of course, ourselves. From simple earrings to ornate necklaces all the way to engagement rings, with diamonds in every size and shape, a little bit of sparkle might just be the perfect gift.

    Alex & Chloe "Holding You Forever" Wedding Rings- A Revolve ...

    Weddings are deeply rooted in tradition, so much so that the white gown and coordinating taffeta bridesmaid dresses are just the buttercream icing on the classic tiered cake. But these days, more and more brides are opting for a more modern approach, and as little twists such as wedding cupcake arrangements make way for bigger ones like shorter dresses and atypical venues, it's only a matter of time before the biggest little wedding tradition- the ring- follows suit. Edgy jewelry maker Alex & Chloe has taken the traditional wedding ring and given it an ultra-modern spin with their 14k gold "Holding You Forever" rings, available exclusively on Revolve Clothing. With inverted princess-cut diamonds, square bands, and concentric circles, you've truly never seen rings like these! The men's ring is identical, minus the diamonds (and a couple dollars). The rings can be purchased as a set or individually, and are custom-made and shipped within two weeks. They're just traditional enough to be elegant, and the style, while definitely not the usual, is indeed timeless- just the way things should be.

    Ring in the New Year With A Radiant Vintage Ring!

    I know it's only the second day of Christmas, but really, is there anyone out there who wants to receive two turtle doves? I say cut to the chase and get to the real goodies- those five golden rings! Of course, when The Twelve Days of Christmas first appeared as a children's book back in the 1780s, the famous "five golden rings" are rumored to have had nothing to do with jewelry. (Some say they represented the gold rings on a pheasant's neck.) In any case, it didn't take long for men to figure out that women were way more interested in the 14-carat kind of gold wrapped in beautiful packages. In today's economic climate, however, five golden rings does seem a bit excessive, so I'll be happy to settle for just one of these fabulous finds. Click the slideshow and ring in the New Year with one of these gorgeous rings!
