Men's Shopping Blog

Let me share a story of my friend’s recent foray into the world of ring shopping. More specifically, wedding ring shopping. He and his fancee took an evening to go to the local mall to look at rings from all the jewelry counters available. They live in a failry rural area, so the shopping mall is a single level shopping center. They started at one end of the mall and gradually looked at every available counter. My friend was not particular in the style of his ring, he wanted something simple and traditional. Well after scouring almost the entire mall, they ended up at the last store. When they got to the counter, the girl pulled out the wedding rings. Then she looked at my friend and came to the conclusion that he must not pull down more than $18,000  a year because she then mentioned that the promise rings were a little farther down. To my friend’s credit, he waited until he got home to vent his offense. I called him the next day and suggested he take a look at some palladium wedding bands. I didn’t think he would go for it since they’re a little more contemporary, but I got an email a few days later thanking me for the suggestions along with a picture of the ring he selected.

When I got married, I went the route of the more traditional and standard mens rings. I don’t know if these rings were available when I was getting married back in 2003. This tungsten ring is just one of the new fashions in mens jewelry . This thing is absolutely gorgeous. One of the first things I notice when I look at this is the color. I’ve seen white gold rings, but white gold has a different shine to it. This tungsten ring doesn’t shine which makes it stand out more to me. Embedded along the center are a series of black diamonds. I used to work for an insurance company during my summers off during college, and one of my jobs was to fill out forms detailing people’s insurance policies on rings. Needless to say, I got to know the various options when it comes to womens and mens rings. And one of the things I found most interesting was the different colors of diamonds. There’s more than just the standard white. The value of a colored diamonds is evident in this particular ring. While black is a very alluring color for women, it also is a very masculine color to me. I could see someone like Vin Diesel wearing this and it making him look even tougher, if that’s possible.

You knew this was coming, I mean, I did just post about engagement rings. Since mens wedding rings are much more important now, it’s pertinent that you find the highest quality wedding ring that fits your personality!

Plain gold bands are a thing of the past. Quality unique bands are what’s in!

Okay guys and gals, this blog is not only about what kind of things guys want, although that is the main idea – but sometimes guys need a bit of help trying to find something for her. Picking out an engagement ring can be stressful for the ‘groom to be’ because there are so many styles to choose from. Why not look into custom engagement rings as the best way to to express your love.

When it comes to women’s jewelry… you have to know what they are going to like.  Do not just go out there without knowing their personal taste and style.  If you think that really do not know what they like then you are going to have to find out.  Put up the site and ask them to pick something that they think is pretty or trick them somehow…but DON’T get something just for the sake of getting it.  They will seem appreciative like they like it but they will never wear it if they don’t.  Then you have wasted your time and your money.  Check out Lauren Klein because she has a really nice selection of many trendy and popular items…start there and see where it goes!

I’m not sure what just happened over the last few months but my girlfriend has been bringing up the subject of marriage lately.  When we got together, we both agreed we didn’t want to get married, we’ve both been married before and well, never again!

I think she spends too much time surfing the ‘net and chatting with her girlfriends becauuse suddenly she’s sending me links to mens wedding bands – while I reciprocate by sending her a link of the latest guitar I want.  Yea, I know, I build guitars but even luthiers buy some once in a while.

Well, I will say, the pictures she sends me of the wedding bands really are nice but I’m definitely not ready to go down that road, again.
