Love, Actually

Thanks for all of your lovely comments. I’m not sure why I’m so particularly enamoured with this


:love: It's amazing, that's why, and has my two favorite things red spinel and brushed gold.
 
I love this--the brushed satin, the red, the size. It looks beautiful on you!
 
It’s the gift that the hubby was smart enough to give to his wife, not the flirty chick at work.

Loooove that movie. But it's the only time I got soooo mad at Alan Rickman (R.I.P!).
 
I bought a 1.06 ct 6 mm red spinel from Gene at Precision Gem. I had to, because of the colour, but was unsure about what to do with it, given its size (small, by my snobby standards). Then, as I do, I was watching Love, Actually over the holidays, and I thought YES!!! Hubby was very amenable, DK’s turnaround was pretty quick, so this just arrived, I’ll call it my Christmas/Valentine’s present. 18k satin yg, with a chain DK/Amy found to match it perfectly. 06E4FEB3-36D7-4D1D-A58D-467725B6F65F.jpegD0118A70-B32D-43D5-B77B-10AFC956A142.jpegAF823A7C-2379-43B0-A591-D9ECEA1FDB42.jpeg5D0DB463-CD7C-43CF-918F-B6A1D8591203.jpeg52DD9885-6ACD-4BD1-A73C-EDC644D7F984.jpegIt’s the gift that the hubby was smart enough to give to his wife, not the flirty chick at work. ;-)

I am in love!!! D197DF47-980B-42D7-9547-27DB3444AD68.jpeg

This is everything I needed today - it’s gorgeous and I love the inspiration so much!
Best movie ever. Don’t @ me :D

Thank you! I was nervous posting the neck pic...lol

I guess maybe part of the significance of this necklace at this stage of my life is, we are 20 years and 3 kids in. He’s had women at work throw themselves at him (I’ve witnessed!), but he’s really committed, and I never really had that before him.

Also, he proposed 3 days before Valentine’s Day. :)

Good on your hubby for being strong and loyal
