I had for the longest time planned on getting a 3-stone for my reset. Then got a cheap 3-stone ring to get a better idea and thought it looked horrible with my band and covered too much of it. I then turned my attention to halos, thought I should definitely go this route but I just don't know. At this point I've tried on just about every halo ring available in Manhattan and I still can't decide. Some look great, even complement my band but they just seem to blur together with the stone. I also worry that the whole halo trend is on its way out, I don't seem to see as many of them among the newly engaged than I did a couple of years ago though I certainly have no data on this. I really do want this to be my forever setting though. So I snapped a couple of pictures of a halo (I apologize for the crappy quality) and the 3-stone. What do you think? Should I scrap the idea of a 3-stone entirely? Does a halo look better with my band? (I wouldn't get this exact style of halo, so just in general). Also, the halo is with a 1 ct stone, so smaller than mine, which is 1.6ct. The 3-stone has a equivalent of a 1.5 ct in the center and the sides are supposed to add up to 1.5 but I'm pretty sure they're smaller, I"m getting 5.5 mm when I measure them. I'd get smaller side stones, maybe .4ct each if go with a 3-stone.
