Diamond scams
Category: Fashion, Style, Shopping

When it comes to diamonds, there are numerous scams to avoid. Scams occur simply because most people who buy diamonds - for whatever reasons - don't know that much about diamonds. A common scam that most jewelry stores participate in is the Carat Total Weight scam. The tag on the piece of jewelry, usually a ring, only states the total carat weight of all diamonds in the piece, instead of listing the total weights separately for each diamond. Jewelry stores are allowed to round off diamond weights. Jewelry stores often run 'fluorescence' scams to varying degrees. Referring to a diamond as a blue-white diamond is such a scam. Jewelry stores also like to show their diamonds in bright lights. Lights make diamonds shine. More: Legal tips

Buying Diamonds Online
Category: Fashion, Style, Shopping

With all of the potential for scams concerning diamonds, buying diamonds online almost seems unthinkable! However, you actually can purchase diamonds online, without any problems - as long as you are careful. Due to low overhead costs, online jewelers and wholesalers are able to offer lower prices. You know about diamonds, you've found a diamond that you love, and you've found the lowest price - but you are still quite a ways away from actually purchasing that diamond! The seller sends the diamond to the escrow service, and you send the money to pay for the diamond to the escrow service. The escrow service has the diamond appraised, sends the diamond to you, and sends the money to the seller. See also: Legal resources

Home Decorating for Halloween
Category: Life

If there is ever a time of year when the ghosts and goblins roam the streets of the modern world, that time would be Halloween. Halloween is a great day to be a kid but can also be a great day for grown ups as well. You are perfectly free to find some very scary home decorations for this delightful holiday or take on a kinder, gentler, more kid friendly style of decorating. String pumpkin lights around the porch for added lighting and another friendly face in addition to keeping plenty of candles and lanterns lit nearby. For adult gatherings all bets are off when it comes to Home Decorating for Halloween. Favorite suggestions for adult parties would include strobe lights, much like the frightening scene described above, low additional lights, perhaps black lights near the food and drink area of the party.

Fancy Colored Diamonds
Category: Fashion, Style, Shopping

Many people are starting to favor the fancy, vivid Colored diamond gem stones over the traditional transparent or white diamond. Colored Diamonds can be treated by a process called irradiation, which uses a high heat system to alter the color of a diamond. Other diamonds are treated by painting.

Fancy Colored Diamonds: Some colored diamonds are that way naturally. Other colored diamonds have been treated to obtain their color, and this allows people with lower budgets to purchase the fancy colored diamonds. The grading process for colored diamonds is slightly different than that of the transparent diamond. First, a colored diamond is graded based on the primary hue, the blue or pink or red color that makes up the majority of the diamonds color. A very intense, naturally colored diamond is rarer than a less intense diamond, and therefore more expensive. A treated diamond will cost less than a naturally colored diamond in most instances.

Because fancy colored diamonds come in so many different shades, it can sometimes be difficult to interpret the name of the diamonds color. If a diamond is called "blue diamond", you can tell it will be a blue shaded diamond gemstone. Is the diamond blue, or is it green?

Men’s Wedding Rings
Category: Fashion, Style, Shopping

Women usually have more elaborate rings, but that is changing. Men's wedding rings are becoming more and more varied, and chances are, you can find a special ring for the groom that will reflect who he is. The days of men always wearing simple fat bands for wedding rings are numbered.

Men's wedding rings come in all types of metal. Titanium rings are becoming as popular as gold or silver. While many people still choose the simple gold or silver plain bands, many men are looking for something with a little more style. For a long time, it was usually the wife who had an inscription on her ring, but more and more men's wedding rings are being engraved as well. Many men's wedding rings you see on the market are thicker and wider than women's rings. Some men are opting for thinner bands, mostly for comfort reasons. Many have a simple design, or can reflect their ancestry.

No matter what style of men's wedding rings you choose, remember that you aren't getting a deal if your ring is made of cheap material, or even worse, is flimsy and breakable. If the price you find for men's wedding rings seems too good to be true, it most likely is. Read more in French at: Bijoux and Bague de fiançailles

Dream weddings
Category: Parties and Nightlife

Everyone has different ideas on the perfect way to get married. Dream weddings are the ones that are a personal statement by the couple involved. Some people like a traditional church wedding with all the trimmings and some prefer a civil ceremony. Couples have got married on a roller coaster, on the London Millennium Eye and underwater! Dream weddings to some would be a disaster for others. The wedding party will feel relaxed in familiar surroundings and it will have an intimate feel. There should be an indoors alternative in case the weather breaks. Dream weddings need to be dry affairs.

All the components contribute to the perfect day; the food, the music, the flowers and the photographer. Some couples like to jet off to the Caribbean or Mexico for an exotic beach wedding. This will certainly make for some great photo opportunities, and the couple can stay on for an idyllic honeymoon. Others prefer a lively ceremony in Las Vegas, to the tune of Love Me Tender. Dream weddings are whatever floats your boat.

Personalizing a wedding is not hard to do. A lot of couples compose their own vows. One couple walked away to sign the registry as Nothing Else Matters by Metallica played softly in the background. If the couple wants to get married in their pajamas, then so be it. Read more in French at Bagues de mariage and Album photo de mariage

Custom Wedding Rings
Category: Fashion, Style, Shopping

One great way to make your ceremony special is to have custom wedding rings for you and your new spouse to exchange.
Custom wedding rings don't have to match each other, as some people may think. This means you can get your custom wedding rings made to your taste, and your husband or wife can choose their own. As long as the meaning behind the rings remains the same, it doesn't matter if they match or not.
Almost any retail jewelry store will design custom wedding rings for your special day. There are also many places online where you can get custom wedding rings made. Prices for custom wedding rings will vary so shop around for the best price. Ask the company if they will save a picture or record of the ring, in case you lose one and need to have it replaced. Custom wedding rings are a great idea not only for originality, but also for practical reasons. If you have a skin reaction to certain kinds of metal, you can be sure your ring is made from something that will not harm your skin.
When choosing a design for your custom wedding rings, you may have a hard time deciding what you want. This is when a great jeweler will be a huge asset. Read more in French at and get more resources at Annuaire du mariage
