Kim Kardashian's engagement ring!
Holy crap! This b!tch has a 20.5 carat engagement ring. Talk about the blood diamond. I like diamonds, but 20.5 carats is crazy!

Re: Kim Kardashian's engagement ring!
IMO you really can have diamonds that are TOO big. Too much good is bad.
Kate on E posted this photo earlier.
[QUOTE]Here's a pic of her ring. It's just a tad smaller than her ass.

Meeee tooooo. When I have moments of self-loathing I watch them on E! and then I feel awesome. And then I go up to Ben and rub my butt on him or something.

No... but next time I might :)
[QUOTE]I thought I saw a bunch of people say it was too big, Steph. I mean, it's not my taste to have such a large clear stone, but a colored stone doesn't look as bad. I like big cocktail rings and that's what Kate's reminds me of. Although, she probably won't wear it regularly, anyway, right? I think she just wears the band now.

I agree with this. I think big clear stones look like costume jewelry or more fake to me. A big sapphire or a big ruby is more believable to me for some reason. Obviously, her ring isn't fake though.
[QUOTE]I'd be scared that I would be killed for it.
Posted by Denise91980[/QUOTE]
Seriously, this.
But all the power to them, and I think it's quite pretty actually.
Damn, Kate Middleton's sapphire is "only" 18 carats.
ETA: I see Steph beat me to it. I think there's also a psychological issue - you know a sapphire doesn't cost as much as a diamond (stupid inflated diamond prices, thanks DeBeers). Kate's ring cost something ike $60,000 new in 1980/1981. AND it's a family heirloom. I don't know. I CAN see a difference, but I think wearing either ring on a daily basis would get old.

[QUOTE]Whoa she was married before? I didn't know that. And her and this new one have only been going out 6 months.... he better get a prenup!

She eloped to Vegas when she was like 19. Before she did the Ray J sex tape.

[QUOTE]I think it's tacky as shiit, and I'd never wear it. BUT they're in a position to afford it, so who cares. It's kind of in her nature to be over-the-top anyway, ya know? <strong>FWIW, Kate Middleton's (i.e. Diana's) ring is about 18.5 carats, and no one is saying that one is too big. Just because it's not a diamond? Is that the difference? Or the fact that she's royalty?</strong>
Posted by Steph0871[/QUOTE]
<div>Good question. For some reason I think gemstones can be larger without any social stigma. I would totally wear a 5+ carat Blue Topaz as a right hand ring, but a 5+ carat diamond? Aside from the fact that we couldn't afford it, I honestly probably wouldn't.</div><div>
</div><div>The fact that she's royalty doesn't hurt.</div>

[QUOTE]The ring looks emerald cut, to me. Is it? I like emerald cut diamonds but not as much as other cuts. I don't think they shine as much. <strong>Khloe's ring is more sparkly and I like it better. </strong>
Posted by AllAboutTheBenjamin[/QUOTE]
I LOVE Khloe's ring. It's Cartier, right? I just love the way Cartier sounds...it's so fancy!

No, the photo they showed of her going grocery shopping, she had both on.
I think gemstones carats' weight is different than diamonds. Like 1 carat of a diamond =/= 1 carat ruby/opal/sapphire.
I'd be really curious who paid for it, too (or big discount for advertising the shiit out of the jeweler?). Although, he IS employed. It's Jessica Simpson's FI who isn't.
I don't think I want 20 carats of anything on my hands, and I DO have man hands.
Do not mess in the affairs of dinosaurs because you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.
I love you Missy. Even though you are not smart enough to take online quizzes to find out really important information. ~cew

Carat is a measurement of weight, not dimension, so while 1 carat diamond is the same weight as a sapphire, 1 carat sapphire is smaller than a one carat diamond because a sapphire is a denser gemstone. That's why, while Kate's (The Duchess of Cambridge's) ring has an 18 carat sapphire, the sapphire is a lot smaller than the 16.5 carat emerald-cut center stone on Kim Kardashian's ring. Of course, Diana <em>did</em> choose that ring in the first place mostly because it was the biggest.
Personally, I've always felt that either is too big, but I get tiny little rings caught in sweaters all the time and can't imagine what I'd do with a frickin' doorknob on my hand. Plus, I measure all rings by whether I could wear gloves over them in the winter. Because you can't keep wearing the ring anyway if you get frostbite and your fingers fall off.
I would be happy with anything that Fi got me even the little tiny not so shiney thing he got me when we were in high school. HAHA
I hope that this is true love and that he isnt in it for the booty and her in it for the mulah. So Im just wondering what his net worth is if he can afford a 2 milli rock.
Or..is it paid for?
But im obnoxious and like big shiny things.
