Winter White Diamonds



Who said wedding season was over? I just moved back to the East Coast and New York is already prepping for the Holiday season. I have always imagined a winter white wedding in the city. Despite the icy chill of the evening air, nothing is more romantic than cuddling up with your soon-to-be husband in a winter wonderland, particularly under the sparkling lights of New York. Simply speaking, shopping for diamonds should be an effortless and enjoyable experience.


I love DIY websites, especially those that involve simple designs and easy searching. WhiteFlash.com is a fantastic and no-fuss website that speaks glamour and glitz. It's an easy to navigate website that offers not only buyers, but consumers the opportunity to design and select your own style. I'm particularly drawn to the men's jewelry selection mostly because it's a one stop shop to find your soon-to-be husband that perfect, yet understated "his" and "hers" engagement band or classic cufflink to wear to a formal reception. I absolutely love the Titanium Wedding Band by Edward Mirell-- i was definitely drawn to the polished, modern finish and the pure fact that it's neither silver nor gold- something to think about if your husband wants an understated yet handsome ring.


I perused a bit more and found to die for studs! These Concave Diamond Earrings are simply gorgeous, I think I'll have to ask for a pair for Christmas (wink wink!) I usually like to keep my accessories to a minimum and wear one statement piece, and these earrings scream classy but HOT. Pave set earrings are a great alternative to solitaire earrings if you don't want to break the bank and want an investment piece that will go with any outfit.


One word of advice- make sure you check out the above trend report. If you're planning on getting married in the next year, I'd suggest to budget wisely! WhiteFlash is the perfect spot to check out some amazing diamond trends that won't break the bank or send you into a deeper debt.
