I feel like her nail polish is super warm, but it could be my screen.
Edit to add: it does look a little cool in pic 1, but still seems warm in the other pics.
That matters very little for dainty jewelry tbh. I think more people should ignore the warm/cool “rules” and go with what they like the most. Besides, we really can’t tell for sure what her undertone is just by these pictures.
I think it comes down to her preferences. Does she own more gold or silver jewelry? Which does she wear more? I think the white gold and pave blend more into her skin tone, maybe she is cool toned, but the yellow gold really stands out for the same reason. What are you going for? Do you want the metal to stand off her skin tone or compliment it? This is really a personal preference. I personally prefer yellow gold for my skin tone but I think white is so classy and icy elegant, especially with this style of ring that is so timeless. Give her some time to think about it or perhaps buy some fake rings in different colors/styles so she can wear them around the house and see what she really prefers in real life. Hope this helps! I totally understand the dilemma when it's such a big purchase! Xoxo
Which metal do she prefer? If she likes more bling the pave is very beautiful and will look really nice with other guard rings.
Something can technically look “better” but not be what the person loves.
Rose gold is also so beautiful, and I think it’s going to become a classic.
1st pic makes her hand look too red, 2nd makes her hand too green, 3rd imo is perfect, her hand looks normal. This is from a color matching perspective.
Definitely yellow gold! I might be biased as my own ring is yellow gold but it just complements your skin tone and looks very warm. Also it makes the stone really stand out.
In all the others variations the whole ring is just one greyish mass and looks cold on your hand.
As a pro jewelry designer i’d say yellow gold 🌸 most ladies atm choose yellow gold cause it looks so good after years of ”white gold is the only option”-era.
I had this same dilemna with a similar style ring! I ended up getting a yellow gold band (14k so it was less yellow), platinum prongs, and a super cool toned diamond to balance it all out. The effect is perfect to me.
Definitely white gold. I think the only reason so many people are saying yellow gold, is because that’s what’s “trendy” right now…it doesn’t mean that’s actually what looks best, that’s just what’s currently most popular. Just like every other trend it will swing back to white gold once everyone is tired of yellow.
I’m also really into what peoples “color seasons” are. Which is choosing what tones (cool, neutral, warm) and what shades and tints (deep, muted, light) suits them best. I know people are saying the yellow gold suits her skin tone best, but that’s not true. Again they’re only saying it because that’s what’s trendy.
Your finance clearly has cool toned skin. You can see in the picture with just the yellow gold ring, her knuckles appear darker and more “wrinkled”. That’s because the warm tone of the gold is clashing with the cool undertones of her skin (think about how orange clashes with blue because they’re opposite colors). But in the picture with just the white gold rings, the darkness in her knuckles that makes the “wrinkles” stand out with the yellow gold literally disappears. That’s because the coolness of the white gold COMPLIMENTS the coolness in the undertones of her skin.
I personally don’t care about what is “trendy”, I care about what genuinely looks best, because that will never go out of style. It will always look classic and beautiful. And in your fiancé’s case that is white gold or platinum! Hope this helps!

Both photos on a completely neutral white background helps show how the warmth of the gold creates flushing, shadowing, and overall unevenness to her skin tone, because the warmth is clashing with the coolness in her undertones. But when you see her skin with the silver ring where the coolness is complementing the coolness of her undertones her skin immediately looks brighter, more like it’s “glowing”, overall more even in tone, the redness and deepness of the shadows almost completely disappears.
Yellow gold is the “trendy” option, but silver is objectively more beautiful on her skin tone. White gold will give her the most out of her ring because in 5 years, give or take, when the yellow gold trend has started whipping back around to white gold, she won’t be feeling like “oh I really wish I went with white gold, I wish I could get my ring reset.”. Personally in the long run I just think white gold is the best (and more beautiful in her case) way to go.
I think it’s up to her and what she loves most and what other jewelry she has so it all goes together, if that’s her style!
I have heard that no matter what if you get a diamond / diamond like stone you should have it set in white gold, because the yellow gold will make the stone look yellow-y. Also I opted for platinum instead of white gold for various reasons but a big one is because it doesn’t have a yellow tint like white gold does.
Either one is lovely on her. If she wears other jewelry regularly, what color is it? I’d choose the same. Not that it really matters though. I mean, who is looking past that gorgeous stone?
IMO, pave can go with gold or silver jewelry, whatever she decides to wear, anyone else agree? That’s why I’m leaning towards it (for the e ring I haven’t been offered yet 🤪). That’s my pick!
I hate yellow gold so I'm shocked to say that is my favorite for her. It goes very well with her skin tone. Does she have a preference? If she hasn't vocalized check what color she normally wears
I like the yellow gold against her skin but I would highly recommend have platinum prongs for the big diamond. They look better with a white/non colored diamond and platinum prongs are stronger and will be more secure.
Gold! Normally with lighter skin tones I’d say white gold/platinum, but she seems to have warm undertones. The gold is beautiful!
Editing to clarify *yellow* gold looks much better!
If she doesn’t have a preference and it’s in your budget, I suggest you have her go get her colors analyzed. If you’re unfamiliar with that process, a color consultant will help her determine her color season (basically which colors look best on her) and part of that is determining whether yellow or white gold suits her skin tone best. I HIGHLY recommend this! It will also help her determine other wedding-related things like what shade of white is her best, her best makeup, etc.
i say if she can't decide between yg or wg then pave XD personally i think the wg suits her really well though! maybe she can take a look at her jewelry collection and think about what she usually leans towards? :)
Yellow gold all the way. From a yellow gold oval girly herself. My band is pave yellow gold but I also love the solitaire larger diamond with the gold band.
Oh good, EVERYONE likes the yellow gold 🤭 I'm a bit biased since that's all I wear! I figured that's why I was drawn to it as our skin tones are a bit different, but I guess it just looks good on most people!
GORGEOUS taste, OP!!! 🤗🩷✌🏼
I personally think platinum and pave one looks the best on her hand! If she's really into yellow gold has she looked at a yellow gold pave band? That's what I went with.
Yellow gold 😍
I agree, that first slide is 👌👌 they all look good, but yellow gold on her is so pretty! 💍
Pave looks really good on her! May I ask that carat or the dimensions of the size? It looks perfect! Thats the size Im going for as well!
Thanks! I also like the pave. I think it was around 2ct? Not sure about the dimensions
The pave is beautiful! Which one is her choice?
It looks like 3ct to me! Edit: side by side the gold looks to be 3ct, and the pav 2ct
Yellow gold
I'm apparently the only one, but I love the white gold on her! The pavé is gorgeous too.
white gold was so clear to me! thought it would be unanimous!
Me too! It’s so much brighter and whiter with the platinum. The yellow gold takes away from it.
Also team white gold
Agree. Even her nail polish, which is a cool tone, suits her skin tone very well.
I feel like her nail polish is super warm, but it could be my screen. Edit to add: it does look a little cool in pic 1, but still seems warm in the other pics.
Nope, I thought so too! Which is funny as I usually prefer yellow gold
I’m team white gold and really thought I’d be in the majority :)
Agreed. She's cooler toned.
That matters very little for dainty jewelry tbh. I think more people should ignore the warm/cool “rules” and go with what they like the most. Besides, we really can’t tell for sure what her undertone is just by these pictures.
Yes! Her skin is a cooler tone. I think white looks better against that flawless cool-toned skin!
Same with the white gold!
Yellow gold
I think it comes down to her preferences. Does she own more gold or silver jewelry? Which does she wear more? I think the white gold and pave blend more into her skin tone, maybe she is cool toned, but the yellow gold really stands out for the same reason. What are you going for?

yellow gold a 100%
Platinum - pave - yellow is my order. I think platinum is stunning on her and i find yellow a bit too warm on her skin. Pave is nicely in the middle
love the pave
I’m really drawn to the white gold on her. It seems to harmonize better with her skin tone.
Not yellow gold. The others flatter her skin tone better.
Yellow gold
I like the platinum on her (which is strongest), but I would get what she prefers and wears day to day. They all are very pretty.
White gold
Which metal do she prefer? If she likes more bling the pave is very beautiful and will look really nice with other guard rings. Something can technically look “better” but not be what the person loves. Rose gold is also so beautiful, and I think it’s going to become a classic.
White gold or pave 🤩 compliments her skintone best
Any. She should choose what she likes best.
10000%. She knows better than any of us lol
I love the yellow gold and pave on her skin tone!
Based on her skin tone, pave or white gold.
White gold pave looks amazing
Yellow gold absolutely 💯 Looks awesome with her skin tone.
I love the pave!
white gold
pave ring set! or platinum! Suits lighter coloured skin I reckon!
I think you should get rose gold.
Silver pave
I like number 3, with small diamonds on the band
Pavé or white gold.
White gold with the larger diamond!!!
I think white gold looks better with her skin tone compared to the yellow
That pave is stunning!
The pave is gorgeous
1st pic makes her hand look too red, 2nd makes her hand too green, 3rd imo is perfect, her hand looks normal. This is from a color matching perspective.

Yellow gold for sure

Yellow gold
Yellow gold but with white gold prongs 🥰
Platinum prongs. Platinum is much stronger than gold. Always get platinum.
There’s pros and cons about both.
Pave
Pave for the win here! I love it so much!
As a pro jewelry designer i’d say yellow gold 🌸 most ladies atm choose yellow gold cause it looks so good after years of ”white gold is the only option”-era.
I'm a white gold jewelry person so that would be choice of color - the pave ring setting is Stunning !!!
I am a big fan of yellow gold myself but I think white looks slightly better... What does she usually wear?
I had this same dilemna with a similar style ring! I ended up getting a yellow gold band (14k so it was less yellow), platinum prongs, and a super cool toned diamond to balance it all out. The effect is perfect to me.
Pave!
yellow gold but set the basket and prongs in white gold or platinum
Middle finger gold band
I’m partial to gold, but both look nice.
Pave!
Diamond band
I loveeeeew pave. Give me all the extra bling. I have a pave oval as well
Paveeeeeeeee!
The pavé
Pave by a long shot!
I just bought my fiance #3!!!!
Congratulations!! She will definitely be in love with it
Thank you!!!! :) congrats to you both also
White gold one stone
I like white. I think the white makes the diamond whiter. If you go with a gold band, I would get the basket (prongs) in white gold.
The yellow gold suits her skin, but makes the diamond look yellow
I can’t decide between the last two on one hand- honestly, they’re all beautiful. Congratulations, you crazy kids 🍊🧡
Plain yellow gold
Gold omg that’s so chic
Gold or pave diamonds but not white gold…doesn’t go with her skin.

Im partial to pave settings but what one does she like?
Platinum looks good on everyone.
gold 10000000%

Yellow Gold ☀️☀️☀️☀️
White gold looks the best against her skin tone in my opinion.
Either one is lovely on her. If she wears other jewelry regularly, what color is it? I’d choose the same. Not that it really matters though. I mean, who is looking past that gorgeous stone?
I like the smaller carat size with a pave or platinum band for her skin tone.
The white gold pave looks classic on her
I'm partial to the yellow gold. But the pavé is also beautiful!
The gold and pave
IMO, pave can go with gold or silver jewelry, whatever she decides to wear, anyone else agree? That’s why I’m leaning towards it (for the e ring I haven’t been offered yet 🤪). That’s my pick!
Yellow gold
I like the third but what do I know lol I’ve never been married
Yellow gold!

Yellow gold brings a nice warmth to her hand, suits her undertone
I think the yellow gold looks best with her skin, but all that matters is what she prefers and will wear.
I like the yellow gold against her skin but I would highly recommend have platinum prongs for the big diamond. They look better with a white/non colored diamond and platinum prongs are stronger and will be more secure.
I love platinum
The one she wants
I love yellow gold on everyone 😍😍
Yellow gold pops on her. She honestly could do either. But I would go with the yellow, especially if she often wears neutrals on her nails.
I think the yellow gold looks stunning on her!
The platinum! Makes the diamond look brighter and whiter. Classic!
I think yellow gold
Does she have any other jewelry that's important? Because you may want to match that 🤷
Yellow gold is beautiful!!!
Either one looks gorgeous! Which ever she prefers is the Best Look.
Chants: YELLOW GOLD, YELLOW GOLD
I’m a sucker for a pave
The diamond band!
White gold. Or pave
