Hi,
I was wondering if anybody could help me find exactly what I''m looking for. I think the ring I want is pretty common, but I''m having a really hard time finding the right combination of diamond, band, and price. I''m looking for a three-stone princess cut with small diamonds in the band as well. I would like the look to be similar to this:

I feel like the diamond in this isn''t as nice as what I want, though.

This next one on Blue Nile looks ok, but the pair of diamonds next to the center diamond seem to be a bit small. I have seen similar ones in person and I don''t really like when the side diamonds are too small.

The price would allow me to get pretty decent diamonds, though.

This next one is better size-wise, but it''s platinum...my girlfriend likes white gold and I would rather spend extra on a bigger diamond rather than a platinum band if possible, though I''m not at all opposed to platinum.

Also, the price would limit what I could spend on the diamonds that would go in it.

The best one I''ve found in stores so far is a 1.5 CT TW SI1, G color diamond in a three stone band with two small stones in the band on each side of the main three stones. It was at Bailey Banks & Biddle with an offered price of $4386. I like it a lot but I''m not sure if I''m getting a decent price. I have absolutely no more than $5000 to spend including taxes. I kind of wish this one had a bigger stone at least in the middle, but I think it looks pretty good.

I would appreciate any help as my head is spinning and after weeks of looking in stores and online it''s just becoming too much to decide between. I''m not sure where to look, where to buy, or how to find exactly what I want.
