    It's beautiful. I bet she'll be thrilled - not only with the lovely gift but with how much thought you've put into it. Hope you both have a lovely day.

    Only my opinion OP, but........

    It is nice, but I would suit it more to an older lady than a 25 year old.

    But then again I don't know your girlfriend, so it may be perfect for her! And also I just read one of the reviews online and someone said she got it for her 26th birthday.

    It is lovely and delicate... is that in keeping with what your GF likes?

    It's gold, it's a real ruby and from a high street store (so you can always return it if there is a problem)... so ticks all your boxes.

    Well done for keeping at it.

    That is a really lovely piece of jewellery. I am sure your g/f will love it and appreciate all the care and thought you have put into such a beautiful gift :)
    The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.
