Mrs. Pashmina's Picture
Mrs. Pashmina, NYC/Catalina Island, CA Age and Occupation: 28, Arts Education Fiance's Age and Occupation: 34, IT Administrator Engagement Date: April 26th, 2009 Wedding Date: July 2010 Venue: Catalina Country Club, Catalina Island, California About Me: I'm a laid-back Cali girl who moved to NYC for school, and ended up staying for love. My fiance is a quick-witted Jersey boy, a self-proclaimed Foodie and the funniest man I've ever met. Together we love exploring the city streets embarking on our next misadventure---and yes, this often involves eating off food carts and trying "the next big thing". I'm the girl in the sundress, snapping photos and collecting trinkets of memorabilia along the way. As a girly girl at heart, I am excited about our romantic natural island wedding incorporating our American & Filipino traditions.

My Ring

The Engagement Ring

Ain’t she a beauty?! She was a surprise, but the look of her wasn’t a huge surprise. For about six months before Mr. P popped the question he asked me to go online and show him pictures of what types of rings I liked. I came down to five that I really liked.

1.) The Tiffany Novo: A cushion diamond (like a pillow) with a bunch of smaller stones around it. Almost vintage looking, but very fresh.

2.) The Etoile: A bezel set diamond. Low set, it would never snag on anything! Very simple and unpretentious.

3.) Round Brilliant with Channel Set: A classic singular diamond with a bunch of smaller ones spaced apart on the band.

4.) Round Brilliant with Bead Set: A classic singular diamond with a bunch of smaller diamonds on the band fit snuggly close together.

5.) The Elsa Peretti Curved Band: A Modern bent ring with a small diamond stone.

And what did I get?

#4! It is a little bit different because on the band it alternates round and rectangular stones. Mr. P has great taste. It is classic round engagement right, but has a little bit extra sparkle.

Which one is your favorite?

It’s beautiful! Did you say you liked #4 best, or did Mr. Pashmina make the final decision?

It’s lovely! I’m an Etoile girl myself, so you know I’m biased as to which is my favorite. :)

@miss pin cushion: i actually was leaning towards #2. just because i am a sensible, no frills girl and thought the bezel wouldnt catch on things so it would be the best…no snags. but mr. pash has a bit more glamor in him than me. i have to say he knows it best! i love it!! it’s better than perfect!!
