Hi everyone. I began posting for advice on buying diamonds online and settings to get for my future engagement ring. (My boyfriend just received the ring, so I'm just waiting for him to officially pop the question).
With your help, we decided to purchase from Whiteflash. I am extremely pleased with their amazing customer service and the very high quality!!! I don't think I could find a similar diamond around my town if I tried.
I decided instead of a pavé setting that I originally wanted, to get a plain band. I plan on blinging it up with a diamond wedding band in the future. My boyfriend was able to get a bigger diamond due to this and many of you encouraged me that this was the right decision.
Also, to bring down the cost a bit, we went with a J colored diamond. I used this forum to research J diamonds and felt that the diamond would still look white enough to me, especially with such an exceptional cut from Whiteflash. Whiteflash sent me a pretty unflattering picture of the diamond once it was set, so I was worrying so much in anticipation of seeing it in person. It looked very yellow since they placed it in front of a red background but I am happy to say that I worried for nothing! The diamond is so gorgeous. It's so white and bright and fiery!!
Even though the ring isn't quite "mine" yet, I wanted to share the pics of it with you all!!! Thank you for all of your input!!
Here are the specs: 1.498 carats (pretty much 1.5 right?) J VS2 Ideal cut. Size 6 finger, although my finger looks a little meaty in pictures, I am a true size 6!
Here is the link to the diamond for more info if you want:

Thank you to this forum and all of you that willingly shared your advice and expertise with me!! I never would've gotten a diamond like this without all if the valuable knowledge I gained with all of your help! Hope you enjoy the eye candy. Hope it'll permanently be on my finger soon!

I have a J diamond from WF and it's very white - and so is this rock!!
Love the elegant solitaire on your finger, too!
