    Would love to see who has rings that are NOT diamond (but feel free to post even if they ARE diamond) that are under $500. If you could give specs and prices please! :)

    @FutureMrsHolmes:  Here is my blue topaz! I had one customer at the jewelry counter scoff at the ring, she didn't think it was a "wedding ring." But I love it and its totally me!

    Original Price for ring: $600.00

    My price after sales and crazy discounts: $222.00! (I am pretty proud of that!)

     

    14k White Gold Ring, Blue Topaz (1-3/8 ct. t.w.) and Diamond (1/5 ct. t.w.)

    There's a 6.5mm moissy selling on Diamond Bistro right now for $125:

    http://www.diamondbistro.com/category/200/Man-made-%28lab-grown%29/listings/32327/65-mm-Moissanite-RB-%28unenhanced%29.html

    If you put it in this setting:

    http://www.moissaniteco.com/round-moissanite-milgrain-bezel-engagement-ring-022ct-p-14610.html

    You'd have a forever ring (gold) with a forever stone (moissy is almost as hard as diamonds, and will wear similarly) for under $500.

    @FutureMrsHolmes:  Thank you! I do as well. I am not really a "diamonds are a girls best friend" kind of girl, just not me. I knew I wanted a non-diamond stone and blue has been my fave color since I was about 11. I especially like the smaller diamonds donw the band. I think it accents the diamonds that frame the topaz.

    OOOH! I love any time I get to show off my RHR/DPR!

    It's a substantial ring though- the gem is pretty big but it's beautiful. It's Judith Ripka, and bloomingdales always has sales, so you can get it for around $300 or so.

    I absolutely LOVE this white sapphire bezel ring from Etsy:

    White Topaz Gemstone Ring, Pear Shaped Ring in Sterling Silver, Made To Order

    Only $138! http://www.etsy.com/listing/64022425/white-topaz-gemstone-ring-pear-shaped

    The seller has a lot of gorgeous gemstone rings for great prices. 

    I am also partial to ruby rings, and I just saw this one and now want it for a RHR:

    Burmese ruby Pear shape ring.  Engagement ring or stacking ring. 14k gold

    This is my RHR. It's a garnet center stone, and I absolutely love it. I get way more compliments on it than on my engagement ring. It's from Macy's, I think with sales and coupons it came to somewhere between $300-400. Good luck!

    This is not my ring but we were in the store the other day and was thinking about getting it as a second ring to wear on trips or something (I'm always paranoid that I will lose my ring).  This is from David Yurman $425. It is sterling silver with pave diamonds.

    @FutureMrsHolmes:  If you got a ring like this, and an enhancer for it, you'd have bling with lots of options for under $500 total.

    14 ct gold and .2 ct diamond, it cost right over $500 with the warranty on it. I never wanted FI to spend a ton of money on my ring, but I've always been a diamond kind of girl lol

    My initial e-ring was $350. A large cushion cut smokey quartz. I changed it to diamonds because quartz is too soft and was getting scratched up! I'm changing it into a pendant.
