Wedding band/engagement ring

DH and I married with short notice, not the conventional one year in advance type of wedding. He's not the romantic type in regards to gifts but shows love in other ways, and I'm the same. We were never engaged, so there was no engagement ring. I wore the wedding band until my eczema came back, but now that it's improved I'm starting to think it would be nice to wear something a bit fancier than just a plain wedding band. The problem is neither of us like to splash money on it. Personally I'd be fine with something that looks expensive but isn't but I'm worried others will tell. We're considering the CZ rather than a real stone. Will people around me be able to tell the difference?

Zircons can be very diamond-like & sparkly. Real mined gemstones. Do not confuse with cubic zirconia which can dull after a while.
Gemporia.com do a range. This ring is in silver for £19.99. One pic is a screen shot of the video which shows the sparkle.

I’ve recently bought costume jewellery on Vinted, the stones look reasonable, also got one on Amazon that looks great. I’m currently wearing an amber ring because my engagement ring is far too big. I know it’s going to wear but I can replace it if needed. Go for it!

Katherine James Jewellery has a sale on, they have some beautiful moissanite rings, in sterling silver. I've got a couple, they're really well made and feels substantial. have also got quite a few diamonique sterling silver ones, just because I like different styles! Love them too :)
