However, if you are planning to surprise her
with a special proposal and she has never pointed to a ring in
a jewelry store window saying, I like that one, you will have
to take a completely different approach to choosing just the
right engagement ring for her.
You can begin by taking a close look at the
other jewelry she wears. Is it a silver or yellow gold color?
Does she like large bold pieces of jewelry, or does she wear
very small delicate pieces? If your lady happens to be one of
those extremely rare women who wear no jewelry at all, there is
still hope. Look at the clothes she wears. If they are mostly
cool colors like blues and grays she will probably prefer white
gold or platinum. On the other hand if most of her wardrobe is
in the warmer color palate such as yellow, red and brown,
yellow gold will probably be a better choice for her.
By the same token, you can also get an idea
what style engagement ring she might like, just by looking at
how she dresses. If she dresses extremely conservatively, you
will probably want to stay with something more traditional like
the traditional solitaire, which is a simple band with only one
diamond set on it. However, if she seems to dress a bit on the
flamboyant side, all bets are off ane you can choose an
engagement ring with a great deal more style and flair.
If after carefully observing both her
jewelry and wardrobe, you still have no idea what she might
like, you might want to consider taking one of her close
friends or family members with you when you go engagement ring
shopping. They will most likely have a good idea what style and
color engagement ring your lady-love would like.
Just remember, the love of your life loves
you, and will probably be thrilled with any ring you have
chosen for her. She will appreciate the time you have given to
make the moment you propose to her a very special occasion. She
loves you, and will probably be thrilled with any you have
chosen for her. She will appreciate the time you have taken to
make your proposal one of the most memorable events in her
life.
