    I have short fingers and I tried listening to the "elongate" advice. I tried an oval and a pear. They looked SO UGLY on me and it almost stressed me out because I was following the advice! Then the rep showed me rectangular shapes (cushion, radiant) and they were PERFECT for me. I chose a square cushion because it was my perfect stone but it would love a radiant and an Asher in the future. My advice is to try every shape and go with what you love.

    • @BijouLab
      @BijouLab  Год назад +521

      Absolutely. The best thing to do is try rings on in person and choose what YOU like best! These are just loose guidelines based on simple design rules and anecdotal jeweler experience of what people gravitate to when they try on rings. Ring style is very subjective so at the end of the day, choose what shape makes you happy to look at!!😊

      honestly its like telling someone "if you have small fingers get a huge ring so you can "balance" out the shapes" 😂😂 no! you're supposed to get something that's the shape of your finger, not the opposite, it clashes and points out whatever you lack/have excess of. this applies to clothes too. complete upside down advice.

      I’m 411 and have extremely short figures my fiancé picked out a very classic vintage ring with an emerald cut. It elongates my finger and it is not too big. However ,I feel like if you went more than two carats you may want to choose a pear or oval because it may end up looking too big.

    I love your perspective, about us chubby-fingered gals.. “Just more room for bling.”
    Though, what about us chubby, long-fingered gals? I’m not overweight, though, my fingers have always gotten a bit of a natural muffin-top - even with lose fitting rings.
    I tend to have to wear rather chunky rings, to balance everything out - as small width bands look like they’re cutting off circulation, when they’re not.
    Could you do a series, on engagement rings with some serious chunk, please?
    Not necessarily, like, giant diamond/stone chunk (though, that would be cool, too) - however, even band size chunk, for us non-dainty women?
    That would be much appreciated, thank you!

    • @BijouLab
      @BijouLab  Год назад +75

      Yes I love some chunky engagement rings. They’re inherently durable which is why I haven’t done a series on why you should avoid them 😂. Is there something in particular you want me to discuss about them? Or just looking for ideas..?

      If you happen to see this - I am, simply, looking for ideas. I love longer stones - like oval; and am not always partial to diamonds (or clear/white diamonds, at least). And I really like the bezel setting - especially, with how durable they are. I’ve seen some three stone bezel settings that are gorgeous - though, definitely want to find something that is flattering with a thicker band, also, and doesn’t sit too high.

    I dreamed for a round diamond bc something about me, is I always want the original, timeless option, I just gravitate to that in any situation naturally. Growing up when I would think of a diamond or diamond engagement rings, I’d think of a round diamond!! However, it looked so so ugly in my finger!!! I found a cushion cut, added a halo in gold with a pavé band and i love it so much. The only thing I wish is that I got a thicker band. I originally wanted a thicker band however the company I got my ring from only designed and sold thin bands. I feel cushion and a halo suits me best!!!
    I am looking for a white gold or silver ring for my upcoming anniversary because I do not like mixing metals in my jewelry and I’m thinking to get a radiant cut and the 2mm band I had originally wanted 😊 the one you actually showed in the video is an idea of what I’m looking for!
    My fingers are long and normal width, I wouldn’t describe them as chubby or thin. But when I’m pregnant they definitely are categorized as chubby lol.

    Im not engaged or even looking to get married but I don't wear rings because they are so loose on my fingers. I can't wear smaller rings because my knuckles are the thickest part of my fingers. Rings always move around so much because my ring finger is especially skinny at the base compared to my index fingers which are quite even from the knuckle to the base.
    I suppose rings with repeating patterns all the way round would work best since they can rotate whichever way and not look stupid?

    I am going to disagree with some of this advice. I am a long fingered girly and round stones looked soo small on my finger. I had to size up several carats for the ratio to look right and that was not in the budget. I went with a marquise shape and was so happy with the 0.5 carat. My long fingers combined with the shape make the diamond look modest, and my fingers not crazy, but for a fraction of the price. I also went thin band to highlight the stone. Needless to say, try everything on and see what you like best.

    My advice to you is this pick out your own ring that you're comfortable with because this woman is not going to wear your ring for you
