Fabulous Engagement Rings!

I love love! I love to see people in love! And I love to see people take the leap into marriage. I have seen some beautiful engagement rings in my life. I have seen some really gaudy cheap ones too! Here are some of our favorite celebrities’ fabulous rings:

Tameka "Tiny" Cottle's ring from rapper T.I.

Singer, Monica Arnold's ring from NBA player Shannon Brown

Singer, Beyonce's ring from rapper Jay-Z

Evelyn Lozada's ring from NFL player Chad "Ocho Cinco" Johnson

Singer, Keyshia Cole's ring from NBA player Daniel Gibson

Khloe Kardashian's ring from NBA player Lamar Odom

Singer, Mariah Carey's ring from Nick Cannon
Just because you are sporting a huge rock on your finger does not mean it does not look cheap. Cheap has nothing to do with how much was spent on the ring but rather the design, quality and clarity.

Tasteful is the way to go! I personally would rather wear a simple wedding band than a tacky monstrosity on my finger. Not to say that I wouldn't appreciate a nice diamond, but I don't subscribe to the doctrine that a huge ring is a testament to how much your man loves you or how strong your marriage is.

Limited Edition Andy Warhol inspired Dom Perignon

Christmas time is here. Trying to figure out what to give that person that has everything? May I suggest a bottle of Limited Edition Andy Warhol inspired Dom Perignon?

Dom Perignon, the makers premium champagne is produce by the champagne house Moet  & Chardon. A prestige champagne "Dom P" was first released for sale in 1936. 

 Dom Perignon commissioned the Design Laboratory at Central Saint Martin's School of Art and Design to re-invent the bottle using Andy Warhol as inspiration. The three bottle collection pays homage to pop artist Warhol's use of color play with red, blue, and yellow labeling. Each bottle goes for about $150.

This is a "refined" baller status champagne. Not as flashy as Cristal or Pierre Jouet; Dom Perignon is for a more sophisticated palette.
