I need an update!

 

[movie zombie]

dang, now that's a diamond...i have to start paying more attention to these threads! is it set? where are the pictures?

 

[madelise]

No updates yet, YayTacori.. MZ, yes it's set, and I have yet to see it. No pictures yet. I'm still on the LIW side, list keeper and all, waiting for this puppy! I promise I won't leave ya'll in the dark! Even if he did hand it to me already, I wouldn't have had the time to spend with our families to properly get "engaged" anyway. Now that the holidays are here, and time has been abundant, I hope it will come!!

 

[SB621]

Oh it is beautiful! I'm so jealous! I'm also a size whore and my 2cts rb is just not cutting expectations anymore! I can't wait to see how you set it! AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and i just want to say I LOVE YOUR PICTURES!!!!!!! Creative and sweet!

and i just want to say I LOVE YOUR PICTURES!!!!!!! Creative and sweet!

Thank you I plan on sticking with the "mmmm" theme! I love photos of sweets, and I love photos of bling. What's better than photos of both, together!

X_X sorry. YAYTACORI, why'd you bump this thread Hehe.

I'm just so happy, regardless of ring, right now. It's weird. I was so antsy for the last year, and so frustrated at him.. Even the last few months has been tough. But lately I've been more serene about the whole thing. He just makes me so happy

I had to! You were dodging my questions when I would try to ask you on other threads! This is your punishment! But in all honesty, I'm just excited for you and was curious. I'm sorry if it caused any drama or anything!

Whatttt.. where was I doding your Q's at? I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to ignore you! I'm a bad forum-er. I usually post places and never check back again. No apologizing on your end, lol, there's zilch drama at all!

You didn't ignore me sweetie! Hahaha now you're making me feel bad! I think I just asked in maybe two threads like "oh btw, when are you getting your's?" I'm just the kind of person that checks the threads I've posed in multiple times.

 

[hippi_pixi]

i hope you got proposed to over xmas/new years! I'm dying to see this diamond in its setting. looks like a fantastic OEC

 

[pandabee]

Came back to ogle at your pictures and realized I never posted here! So sorry!!!!! But I still can't believe your stone is an M. It faces up so white and ughhh can't wait to see your final ring.

I hope madelise doesn't mind me speaking up for her, but no engagement yet...she is still our lovely listkeeper over on the LIW side.

 

[hippi_pixi]

now that i've found the ladies in waiting thread and caught up a bit i have apologise for my thoughtless comment. sorry but its going to look so stunning it will be worth the wait!

 

[two_little_birds]

Is this one of GOG's "August Vintage Rounds"... or is it a true OEC?

Either way, it's BEAUTIFUL and I'm gushing here!

Hippi! Don't apologize I'm not hurt by it anymore. There are things we have to wait for to fall in line that are outside of our control. I actually just posted on your thread in the antiques section last night, and had no idea this thread got bumped!

No minding at all. My PS browsing has sort of taken a backseat to other things at the moment, so I'm not a very good PS'er!
The color is white from a top-down view, but you can still see the yellow from the side profile. But yes, I am shocked with how UNyellow it is. I believe the fluo helps with it

This is a true OEC that Jonathan from GOG, wonderful wonderful Jonathan, sourced. It had actually been in his inventory for a while, and Ms. Audball first linked it to me, and pushed me to contact GOG. His videos were really helpful, and I was able to choose one sight unseen. I'm not really ASET-smart, so him showing the diamond next to other contenders under all the different lights = me saving flight $$$ to go see it in person! He is my hero. His videos' information have beat out any other vendor's videos yet. Those videos of diamonds spinning in circles on a mirror really don't please me as much, since the diamond is tilted and I want to see it face on since it will be set face on, I'll never see it spinning in circles IRL, and the mirrors reflecting light confuses me sometimes.

TIL: PS'ers are very impatient!!! If it's too long for you, imagine how long it feels to me!! Lol. My friends AND family are all collectively starting to hound me about our relationship status, and they have no idea about this ring or any of our talks!!! But I promise, since ya'll are such good sports about waiting, that I will make sure the next set of photos will be just as sweet, caloric, and heart-attack inducing.. and I promise a minimum of 10 photos.


And maybe one sitting on SO's "gun". If I can get him to stand still while flexing, without twitching.
Bling **** and boy ****, all in one.

 

[wsblue430]

I fell off my chair looking at this amazing stone! It sure is MmmmMMMmm! Then I read your posts and am laughing so hard!
Definitely 10 pics at a minimum, we will hold you to it!

Notice my tagline? I'm rarely well behaved, I'll be sure to serve the proper dues when they come! Hey, maybe I'll let ya'll charge me a hefty interest, too! With time deferred on this debt, I'm sure the ending fees will be hefty!

OMG ROTFL that is hilarious....and YES, your gorgeous stone totally deserves a 'gun' picture!!!!!
You'll have to talk him into it.

 

[LaraOnline]

PS Can't wait to see the setting you come up with!!!
I am sure it will be in excellent taste, and just perfect.

although I am so diamond mad I think diamonds are beautiful just as they are...unset!!
all the possibilities........

My setting is already done. I have a thread on the journey of it, just w/o actual photos of the finished product, since I have yet had the privilege to see it.

He's such a vain little show off, he'd love it. Ha! He's just as much trouble as I am.

 

[dianabarbara]

my goodness, madelise, I almost fainted when I saw this tread!!!

this is a beauty, and the setting looks like it's going to turn out awesome as well!!

I can't wait to see it finished!!

 

[LaraOnline]

OMG Madelise!
Your ring is a very similar / almost exact choice to the style I am leaning towards!! (for my family slash 10 year anniv RHR)
