La vie Jaime : Hearts On Fire diamonds

A few weeks ago I was invited to attend a focus group for the lovely diamond company Hearts On Fire. Sitting amongst a round-table of 20-something ladies, we chatted with the HOF staff about our fashion likes & dislikes, favorite brands, what we like in jewelry (esp diamonds), and enjoyed some complimentary wine and cheese. Then the best part came- we got to try on about 40 different engagement rings! Every girl's dream, right?

Well after trying on various styles- vintage, modern, lots of bling, solitaires...I found my engagement ring! I know, you must be thinking "Jaime, um, you haven't mentioned getting engaged anytime soon..." and you'd be right. HOWEVER, that doesn't mean I cannot find my dream ring now, right? ;)

Introducing, the Transcend. Yes, it's gorgeous, and the diamonds sparkle like no other, and it looks perfect on my left hand...

The Transcend was even was featured in Us Weekly!

So now the quest to find the man to give this baby to me... ha!

Thanks to Hearts On Fire for these pics. Check out their website to view all the engagement rings & fashion jewelry..there are several items I am smitten over. Like them on Facebook too!

Wow I love that! I agree, find the ring before the man. I had no idea what I wanted when we got engaged. I guess I still don't ;) Can you say 10 year anniversary?

Yes I know you can...

My best friend sent me your blog because my fiance gave me this exact same ring a month ago and I am head over heels in love with it! You are right, it sparkles like no other! The picture does it no justice. You can view what I had to say about it as well as all my other blogging here!
