<\/span>Not All Diamonds are Created Equal.<\/span><\/h2>

We all know about mined diamonds. Those gorgeous little stones might be naturally made, but they’re far from conflict-free.  If you’ve had some trouble coming around to the idea of supporting the mining industry consider your options! Lab-grown diamonds are just as gorgeous as the mined variety! In fact, they’re basically identical! You get to have a nice, sparkly ring, you get to save a little money, and you get a ring that’s more ethical than the traditional bling. It’s a win-win-win! Check out this stunning Badgley Mischka engagement ring<\/a>!<\/p>

<\/span>The 4 Cs to Make the Grade.<\/span><\/h2>

In school, you might have wanted to get all As, but where diamonds are concerned, we’re all about the C’s. <\/p>

<\/span>Cut<\/span><\/h3>

This will help your ring catch the light and give it the sparkle you want!<\/p>

<\/span>Color<\/span><\/h3>

A perfect diamond will be crystal clear, but they can also have a light yellow tint. The closer to perfect, the pricier the diamond!<\/p>

<\/span>Clarity<\/span><\/h3>

Diamonds are always gorgeous, but they can have imperfections! Imperfections are more common in natural diamonds than in lab-grown options, FYI!<\/p>

<\/span>Carat<\/span><\/h3>

This is where you can really show off how much of a diva you are! The heavier the diamond, the higher the carat number! In the mood for something sparkly? Take a look at this princess-cut engagement ring<\/a>!<\/p>

<\/span>Ring’s Have Anatomy too!<\/span><\/h2>

You might want to brush up on your anatomy before you start dropping hints…Ring anatomy, that is! Depending on your style, consider a pavé band or try a center stone nestled into the prettiest halo. But you won’t be able to know that if you don’t know the different parts of a ring! Check out this diamond bypass ring<\/a> and get ready to swoon!<\/p>

<\/span>The Magic Number.<\/span><\/h2>

This one’s obvious. In order to get your perfect ring, you have to know your size! Sure, rings can be resized, but wouldn’t it be even more magical if the second you say “YES!” you can slip on your ring…And maybe admire it for an hour or twelve! If you have a band with multiple diamonds, getting the size just right will also help ensure your ring stays pristine! Have a look at this three-stone ring<\/a> for your engagement ring-spo!<\/p>
