Hello Lovelies!!

I hope everyone enjoyed the first part of the holiday season!! I know I had a great time! Well, during the holiday season everyone is happy, in good spirits, and everyone is in the giving mood! We also know that a lot of guys choose this time of year to pop the big question! Yes, statistically more people get engaged during  Thanksgiving, Christmas and  New Year than any other time of the year. It's the season of love in so many different ways and we are excited to share your stories, so please feel free to email your beautiful engagement stories with us, just send the details to bcgblogger@gmail.com.

With that said, some of you have been dreaming of that flawless, 2+ carat diamond ring set in platinum and guaranteed forever.  For those of you looking for something different though and not your standard clear, cut diamond set in gold or platinum there IS an alternative! YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A huge trend now are colored gemstones. A few celebrities have spotted these rings like the Midnight Blue Sapphire stone the Duchess of Cambridge has, or Jessica Simpson's Blood Red Ruby engagement stone or remember J.Lo's Pretty Pink diamond when she was still with Ben Affleck?  There are soooo many options out there from rubies, amethysts, aquamarines, peridots, to gorgeous moisannite, morganite and iolite stones in peach and pink hues and even diamonds are now trending in chocolate, black, yellow, pink and even blue colors. I mean the possibilities are totally endless! So if you are the kind of girl who loves to break tradition, one of these rings may be the one for you!

The most I can do is rose gold but I do prefer a more classic color because I want something that I'd LOVE forever.

I personally love a non traditional setting on a ring, it does not necessarily have to be a diamond, like Bella from Twilights ring, oval shaped cocktail like ring, different and stands out.
