Rings
The new jewelry status symbols aren’t tennis bracelets, liquid silver
or fancy brooches – they’re diamond belly rings.
Diamond belly rings
are sophisticated and sexy at the same time, accentuating a trim
midriff and adding a touch of drama to a revealing two-piece outfit.
Even the most formal
outfits these days often show some of the mid-section, with red carpet
fashions showing off diamond belly rings on runway models, actresses
and divas as well as socialites and secretaries.
Lately you’ll also
see diamond belly rings with casual clothing – over low-rise slacks
and with work-out wear. It’s obvious that diamonds aren’t just for
formal occasions these days, so feel free to wear your diamond belly
rings with everything from bathing suits to blue jeans!
If you’re interested
in a diamond belly ring, look for a good quality curved barbell.
These are the ones with a smaller ball on one end with the larger ball
being the one mounted with the diamond. You can find diamond belly
rings in sizes ranging from inexpensive diamonds of an eighth of a
karat or less to custom-made diamond belly rings of a carat or more
depending on the look you want and your budget.
You can also get
diamond belly rings that feature a mix of other stones, like diamonds
with emeralds, sapphires or rubies. These are especially nice if you
are coordinating your new jewelry to a special outfit.
A diamond belly ring
should always be made with either at least fourteen karat gold or
surgical steel, never a base metal. You want a material that is
strong enough to hold the diamond securely and set off the stone
properly and pure enough not to irritate your skin. |
