Upgrading My Ring: A Sparkling Journey to the Perfect Piece
Hello, lovely ring enthusiasts! 💍✨
I hope you’re all having a fabulous day filled with love and joy. Today, I’m excited to share my journey of upgrading my engagement ring, and I can’t wait to hear your stories, tips, and advice along the way!
The Decision to Upgrade
For those of you who might be contemplating a ring upgrade, let me share a bit about my thought process. After a few cherished years of marriage, I began to ponder the possibility of enhancing my engagement ring. It felt like the perfect time to reflect on our journey together and celebrate our love in a new way.
When I received my original ring, I adored every detail—from the diamond’s brilliant cut to the intricate halo setting. However, as my taste evolved and I learned more about gemstones and jewelry design, I started dreaming of something different.
What Sparked My Interest in Upgrading
-
Sentimental Value: The original ring holds immense sentimental value, representing our beginning. But could I infuse even more meaning into a new design?
-
Learning About Diamonds and Gemstones: The more I learned about cuts, clarity, and the beautiful array of gemstones available, the more I wanted to explore new options.
-
Lifestyle Changes: My everyday life has also shifted, and I found myself wanting something more suited to my current lifestyle—a ring that was as durable as it was stunning.
My Upgrade Journey
Now, onto the fun part! I decided to explore various options:
-
Going Bigger?: The allure of a larger stone is hard to resist! But I learned that brilliance isn’t always about carat size. A well-cut diamond can appear larger due to its proportions.
-
Exploring Different Cuts: I was drawn to unique cuts like the emerald or oval, which offered a more distinctive look while maintaining that classic elegance.
-
Choosing a New Setting: One of the greatest joys of upgrading was experimenting with different settings. A vintage-inspired halo or a minimalist solitaire? I wanted something that felt modern yet timeless.
-
Incorporating Color: I also considered adding colored gemstones! A sapphire or a ruby could complement my diamond and offer a beautiful contrast.

Yes, you can go with the half eternity or twisted style as well. It gives more sparkle and beauty to your ring.
You could also leave as is and add two eternity bands.Â

I would stack it with a band! There are so many options for bands so you could try some on and see what you like the looks of. Eternity, engraved, filigree, etc.Â
