The Twilight Engagement Ring: Proof that a Twilight Fan Will Buy Just About Anything

Infinite Jewelry Co. must have been suffering big time. What else would explain their great desire to partner with Stephanie Meyer and create a whole line of Twilight Jewelry. As far as I can tell from their website, that's all they sell now. The newest addition is the Twilight Engagement Ring.

The hoopla around this ring broke out today, a few days after the new trailer for Twilight Eclipse was released. The trailer included a glimpse of the ring, but apparently that was enough to get everyone excited about this piece of jewelry. If you are a die-hard Twilighter, then this ring is for you. If you have some taste, then you may want to skip it, and have your man get you a real ring. One that wasn't designed for a fictional character.

Here are the stats on the ring:

Available in 14K yellow gold or white gold (rhodium-plated for luster)

13 Diamonds - Brilliant cut, SI1 clarity, G-H color, approx. 1.06 carats

Price: $1979

PS: The $35 Fashion ring (all fake) and the $479 Fine ring (real gold, fake stones) are also available.

The SpongeBob SquarePants Jewelry Line

Really? SpongeBob SquarePants jewelry?

It's true. The whole line is available at Zales, the place where tacky jewelry comes to die. Ouch. Sorry Zales but your stuff was crap before and now adding this to your stock just made it worse.

Of course, if you are a die hard SpongeBob SquarePants fan, you must be thrilled to death right now. So head over to Zales and show your SpongeBob pride! The line retails from $95-$350 and includes dog tags, rings, necklaces, earrings, and bracelets.

I'm so loving the Tiffany Bow Collection...yes, I know it's completely overpriced but it's just so cute! So if you have some money to burn, and you don't care that you are being totally raped with these prices...shop away!

Handmade Jewelry

If you are tired of buying the same boring jewelry at the mall, here are some handmade pieces that may cure that boredom.

I came upon the Soho Gem (http://www.sohogem.com/) site when I was searching for some unique fine jewelry. This stuff is just gorgeous! Obviously a little pricey, but if you've got the means (because so many of us do these days) I would look into some of these beautiful pieces. If you happen to live in the Tri-State area, they have two locations in Manhattan.

Here's a sample of what they have:
