new here--need advice

[lovediamonds]

I have been married for 29 years and am about to get the ring of my dreams. However, suddenly I am getting cold feet. For the whole 29 years I have been married I have worn a 0.25 carat round diamond engagement ring and a 1mm wedding band in 14kt yellow gold. I have had my eye on this ring forever it feels like. I will post the link below--don''t know how to post pictures yet. About a year ago I broached the subject of getting an upgrade with my husband and he was all for it. For years we had saved scholarship money for our child to go to college, but she just got a free ride (scholarship, books, room and board, etc--she''s pretty smart --I know i am bragging but she is my only one). My husband told me to just take the money and get what I wanted. I just fell in love with this ring when I saw it last year in a magazine. But I have suddenly started worrying that people will think it is fake since I don''t wear much jewelry. Do you think it is a little "much"? Too over the top? Hubby is also getting me an eternity band to wear with the ring with princess cuts that match those going down the side of the ring. Ok here is the ring, tell me what you think--

After 29 years of marriage and your child is now close to leaving the nest who cares what anyone else thinks. You deserve it go for it...

Beautiful Ring! I love the look of the emerald cut center stone with the small round accent diamonds lining the band.

I'm with Josh, but......You could set your mind at ease by finding a jewelry store where you can try this ring, or something similar, on in person to be sure that you like the ring as well in reality as in a picture. If you've already done this, then go for it!
