For me, the Kardashian ring is too big, and I don't even think it's nice looking, even. The Taylor-Burton ring- yuck. Anything too big looks fake and gaudy to me. Even with my ring, which is "only" a carat, I sometimes feel unsafe wearing it in certain places. I'm more interested in the beauty of the stone/setting, not just the size.Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05942521461353088455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073663667387529623.post-80542769996798133122011-06-13T16:41:00.732-07:002011-06-13T16:41:00.732-07:00I actually think that Kim's ring is TOO big.

It looks fake, and who wants people to think that your engagement ring isn't real? <br /><br />I'm not saying that I don't care about size (because if I'm being completely honest here, I would like something semi-substantial. And I think my poor boyfriend knows this. Haha) but I don't need a gigantic boulder on my finger. Besides the fact that diamonds that are too big are gaudy, I would be afraid to wear something like that out of the house!Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00134554993020171853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073663667387529623.post-9525241565304201782011-06-13T16:22:29.740-07:002011-06-13T16:22:29.740-07:00That was so interesting!

I like her a lot so I'll stop there. Personally, my engagement and wedding bands total to just under 4 carats and I love them. They're perfect to me! I have friends who have a total of 1.5 carats and their rings are just as beautiful. Size doesn't matter, but it does... :)Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04898573666719605306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073663667387529623.post-45418085003126281402011-06-13T13:22:57.336-07:002011-06-13T13:22:57.336-07:00I agree with Taryn, I would be worried about the r...I agree with Taryn, I would be worried about the ring snagging on something it was that big! <br /><br />I love my 1-carat just fine : )Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14415956157836499025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073663667387529623.post-4336826650281439822011-06-13T11:04:47.252-07:002011-06-13T11:04:47.252-07:00I think diamond rings, like all jewlery, have to b...I think diamond rings, like all jewlery, have to be made well. Quality over quantity! I will never forget this: as a young woman (16'ish) I worked in a card shop. An older woman, probably 70, would come in with her husband and I admired her engagement ring every time. It was a series of small, very well cut pear shaped diamonds - probably totaling 1 ct between the three. They were set in a low platinum setting with beautiful detail. I would look at her beautifully aged hands every time she came in and think of all of the years that ring had been worn every day, symbolizing the love between she and her husband. One day, about 10 years later, I happened to be filling in at the store. She came in...beautiful ring on her finger. I told her how much I'd always loved her ring. She teared up and said "no one has ever commented on it before". I was shocked! She was so touched by my love for the ring - and that day has stuck with me forever. Size does not matter, quality does.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08167533089342925728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073663667387529623.post-6152570836981492232011-06-13T10:55:30.666-07:002011-06-13T10:55:30.666-07:00I love how Kim's ring looks but I think it'...I love how Kim's ring looks but I think it's too big....it would look just as good (in my opinion) if it were smaller! I feel like my hands are so small that it would look silly on me. Plus I'd rather have that money spent on something else...like our home or something! My main stone is about .75 carats and my two side stones are .25 and I have little diamonds that add up to about .1 carats. I think it's perfect and the whole (engagement) ring doesn't even add up to 1.5 carats!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02796775550398627073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073663667387529623.post-17036470366863336222011-06-13T10:41:38.921-07:002011-06-13T10:41:38.921-07:00Hahaha!
