I bought more from my favourite jewellers, Ashokas in Candolim. Diamond and emerald bangle - £800 and valued at £2500. 7 stone diamond eternity ring - £250 valued at £700. Both are beautiful and everyone is pleased except my husband (only kidding).

It was a bangle already made up so assume it was his design - someone I showed it to in Goa had seen in previously as was jealous that I had bought it.

Also, so you can try and picture it - it has 12 rows of oval shape emeralds, 3 in a row (so 36 emeralds altogether) and each row is flanked by 5 tiny diamonds - not chips (65 in all) and it is set in 18 ct gold with a clasp opening. Very classy!

I must admit I have gone a bit mad the last 2 years. Last year it was a half carat diamond soltaire which cost £350 and valued at £1800. This is the first time I have ever treated myself to real jewellery. I love wearing it but must admit I am a little nervous when on the train/tube and try and keep the bracelet covered up! However, what is the point of buying it and not enjoying on a daily basis. Also my insurance premium has risen, but hey it is only money!

Ive upped all my insurance policies due to the gorgeous jewellery I now own. I dont wear it on a day to day basis and prefer to keep it for weekends and night outs etc.
My OH usually has a look over the jewellery ive picked to wear when we are going out and says "right lets see if youre worth mugging this evening" :evil: :-x cheeky so and so :rofl

:rofl Gemma Some days my husband says mrs you have 7..or 8 grand on them fingers of yours :rofl .but candy is right why have it if you done get the good out of it .....colleen

Must admit I dont wear a lot of rings. Its something I personally dont like, two max is enough for me. But I do like other bits of bling, I think they are very flattering and can make an outfit really nice. On the other hand sometimes I just wear costume jewellery if it goes better with what I am wearing ;)
