Just as the title says! Been asking friends and family and had a really really divided response 🤔

So.. do you love it?
Or hate it?

I think it’s very pretty but more of a dress ring than an engagement ring. I would put that on with an evening dress to go to an event but would find it a bit much with jeans and a t-shirt.

I find it a bit too chunky & prefer the pear original.

But agree with other posters, you want to buy something that you love and have no doubts about.

Emmelina · 12/04/2022 13:13

It’s not for me, but several friends have a similar cut and love it - and it suits them. It would look too big and flashy on me.

The only person who should care is you OP? If you're asking then keep looking.

TheIsaacs · 12/04/2022 13:14

If you’re undecided then it’s a no isn’t it. Having just seen your other thread, if your original ring can’t be resized, just buy another one that looks like it in the right size.

RandomQuest · 12/04/2022 13:17

I get that you’re quite an indecisive person but you’ve asked the opinions of people in real life and are now asking internet randoms for the second time. If you’re that unsure then it’s not right.

I reckon look for something else, not because I or anyone else doesn’t like it, but because you obviously don’t like it that much either, otherwise you wouldn’t be asking (again). Find something that you love so much you don’t need anyone else to validate it!

Babadook76 · 12/04/2022 13:18

Op it’s one of those things where others peoples opinions don’t matter even a tiny bit.

Bagelsandbrie · 12/04/2022 13:18

If you like it who cares?

It’s not my thing at all. Is it expensive? If I saw someone wearing it I would probably think it was from Next or something….!

Zilla1 · 12/04/2022 13:20

HNRTT but everyone has different taste. And for what purpose, engagement/every day or occasional/dress wear? And it depends on your personal style.

Hope you develop confidence in your judgement.

Good luck.

ButtockUp · 12/04/2022 13:21

If you're not sure and need others' opinions then it's not the right one.

FWIW they both look like they'd keep getting caught on things.

The pear one seems the nicer of the two though.

SalsaLove · 12/04/2022 13:22

I love it. I love the Art Deco style. I think it’s elegant and reminiscent of an earlier age.

Geezabreak82 · 12/04/2022 13:24

I love it. I'm not normally into bling, but I love art deco and this is a really stylish example of that.

Allusernamesalreadyused · 12/04/2022 13:24

It's fabulous.
Where can you buy pre-loved rings?

mamabr · 12/04/2022 13:26

I hate it, but anyone else's opinion shouldn't matter

Lovemusic33 · 12/04/2022 13:30

I like it but it would look too bulky on my finger as I have tiny hands.

Doggydoodah123 · 12/04/2022 13:32

It's a yes from me. Love it x

oakleaffy · 12/04/2022 13:32

Very ostentatious and Deco-
But if you love it, go for it.
I don’t care what others think if I love something :)

LetHimHaveIt · 12/04/2022 13:35

I don't wear jewellery and I rather like it.

Flyinggeese1234 · 12/04/2022 13:35

@Allusernamesalreadyused

It's fabulous. Where can you buy pre-loved rings?
It just means second hand or vintage. Must independent jewellers, auctions or online.
SleepingStandingUp · 12/04/2022 13:36

Is you don't like it enough to buy it and it costs enough that you want advice, it's not the right ring

Londontown12 · 12/04/2022 13:36

If your indecisive it’s not the ring for you ! You will fall in love with a ring it’s it’s the right one for u x

TenoringBehind · 12/04/2022 13:39

Don’t like it but don’t hate it. Doesn’t matter what I think though.

SomethingNastyInTheBallPool · 12/04/2022 13:41

I like it but think your original ring suited your finger better.

Hohofortherobbers · 12/04/2022 13:44

Too fussy for me personally

Purplecatshopaholic · 12/04/2022 13:46

I absolutely love that and would totally wear it!
