    They are rubbish, they look and feel well cheap. Esp the bigger they are! If you cant tell the difference in the two then you shouldnt be allowed a ring

  • or just someone determined to be negative about everything!
  • my engagement ring is Silver and amethyst - so chosen by OH becuase we spend a lot of time apart and amethyst is his birthstone so i always have a piece of him with me :)

    It cost £27.50 on sale and i love it more than anything - everyone says that its totally me and really unusual and no one has asked me how much it was or if it was cheap ... to be honest, i dont care what they say behind my back, im one of the sentiment followers :)

    Puzzled x

    seriously they is no comparison with a CZ and a diamond. A jeweller can tell the difference between diamonds but anyone with eyesight can detect CZ from a diamond EASILY...no point lying

    Someone who is a little jealous? Not sure about the tone in the post about teal shirts! But then I may be extra sensitive with a month to go! lol

    jealous of what? Im just being honest they are solely my opinion
  • My friend got engaged last year and her OH bought her a gorgeous CZ and white gold ring from Argos - not huge and flashy but a nice size and I'll put money on it that no-one knows it's not a diamond just from looking at it!
