Sorry Boys, Snooki is Officially off the Market March 13, 2012
Posted by Jill Renee in : Engagement Rings , add a commentDanforth Diamond is all about celebrating love and romance, and what is more romantic than the union of a Guido and Guidette?
Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi recently announced that not only is she pregnant, but she is also engaged to her boyfriend of one and half years, Jionni LaValle. The couple, infamous for their roles on Jersey Shore, is about to have an entirely new set of priorities. The duo will replace their beer bottles for baby bottles and their nightly parties for a once-in-a-lifetime wedding reception.
What kind of engagement ring is Snooki showing off? For someone with Snooki’s larger-than-life personality, it only made sense that LaValle chose a larger-than-life diamond to match. While the duo has made some poor decisions in the past, this might be one they actually got right.
As the engagement ring experts, we know how to choose the right ring. When choosing an engagement ring, it’s all about personality. Choosing a ring to fit with your lifestyle, personality and tastes is more important than anything else. You could purchase the world’s largest diamond, but if the cut, shape or style is wrong, you’re doomed.
Snooki needed a huge engagement ring. She loves attention and lives an over-the-top lifestyle. A traditional round cut diamond wouldn’t have been enough for her. She needed a jaw-dropping square-cut center diamond with brilliantly flawless side stones; and that’s exactly what it looks like she got.
But when it comes to choosing your engagement ring (your boyfriend is going to need some help) consider your personality. If you are active, a large diamond might not be a practical choice for you. If your tastes are sophisticated, you might want to consider a round, princess or pear shaped diamond.
When it comes to shopping for engagement rings, if you follow your heart it’s hard to go wrong. Find the ring that fits you and not the most recent trends or celebrity engagement.
