A beautiful diamond engagement ring without the extravagant price tag

Weddings can be expensive, so for you budget savvy couples out there finding good quality wedding suppliers that don’t charge the earth, is key.

First stop is the diamond engagement ring - the icing on the cake of many a romantic proposal – and the item everyone wants to see once you have made the big announcement!

Rather than heading to the high street, there are lots of good offers to be had online for those looking for a diamond engagement ring.

Bigger Diamonds 4 Less is an online diamond jewellery specialist that offers some of the lowest priced diamonds around.

Whilst the diamond rings they sell are some of the cheapest around, the quality of their products and the service they provide is far from budget.

Bigger Diamonds 4 Less offer all customers a 14 day ‘no quibble’ money back guarantee, independently certified diamonds, free re-sizing and free insured delivery. And on top of this, all of their diamonds are hand selected so quality is guaranteed and all diamonds are sourced through ethical suppliers.

Valentines Day Lingerie Offer

Valentines Day Underwear

Photo Credit: Sunchild57 Photography  

If like me, you love treating yourself to the occasional luxury of some beautiful new lingerie, you are going to love this! Debenhams have got a special 15% off sale running on their rather gorgeous designer lingerie between now and Valentines Day 🙂

I love these Valentines Day Lingerie pieces as they come in at very reasonable prices with a bra from Frost French starting from around £14 in the sale and some very alluring boudoir underwear from Janet Reger like the gorgeous embroidered corset which is under £30.

It's a great opportunity to have a little spending spree whilst keeping a tight handle on your budget! For the same reason that I love shopping in designer outlets and TK Maxx, there is something very satisfying about buying something that is wonderful quality but without the completely unjustifiable price tag.

 

Valentines Day Underwear from Frost French

If you’re looking for more of a Valentines night snuggle with your beau, then there are some really super cosy looking fleecy socks and super cute checked pyjama bottoms.

Snuggle Sock

Whether you’re going for snuggle time or full on flirt time, this is a great place to shop for something that is kind of a Valentines Day Lingerie present for your beau… but also a nice little present to yourself as well 😀

Have fun!
