Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend

Marilyn wasn't far off when she sang that in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (the hell they do, by the way).

But how does one reconcile one's inner magpie with one's inner treehugger? Simple: ecological jewelry! greenKarat actively uses recycled metal to make their jewelry and hopes to spur consumers in the RRR direction (that's reuse, reduce and recycle to all you non-greenies). And just because they're recycled doesn't mean they're cheap and ugly. (Would I ever wear ugly jewelry? As if!) Take a look at this gorgeous canary diamond engagement ring set in white gold - about .30 carats - and at a not-too-shabby $975 (considering it's an engagement ring).
