The Do’s and Dont’s of Showering with Jewelry
Can you wear diamond studs or a diamond ring in the shower?
You should remove your diamond studs or other diamond jewelry prior to showering. When diamonds are exposed to natural oils, certain soaps, and lotions, it can leave a film over the diamond resulting in less brilliance and sparkle. To ensure your diamonds remain as sparkly as the day you got them, it is best practice to remove them and store them in a safe place before showering.

Most Popular Engagement Rings as New Styles Emerge in 2018
Three Stone Rings
As we transition into the new year, the hot engagement ring trend of 2018 will be three stone rings. One larger diamond is framed by two smaller gemstones on each side, framing the center diamond and results in the illusion of a larger center diamond. The style was very classic in the late 90’s and early 2000’s, now returning to the engagement ring trends stronger than ever. The three stones have been known to be a symbolic representation of the couple’s past, present, and future--making it a very meaningful option for an engagement ring. We know this style will stand strong throughout 2018, especially as Prince Harry recently proposed to American actress Meghan Markle with a stunning custom three stone engagement ring featuring a cushion cut diamond in the center. Three stone engagement rings are classic, meaningful, and elegant—a beautiful style sure to leave her sparkling with delight.
