In the wake of Valentine’s Day proposals and fabulous gift giving, the lucky ones are smiling from ear to ear as they flash their diamond-encrusted rings or dazzling earrings. As celebrities are constantly dripping in these priceless diamonds from red carpet appearances to glitzy photo shots, their care for these extravagant pieces are minimal.

Taking notes from the late 1993 Playmate of the Year, Anna Nicole Smith, the everyday women can learn important does and don’ts when catering to her sentimental jewels.

Don’t Get Taken Advantage of: Before purchasing your diamond you want to do a little bit of comparison pricing. Don’t feel the need to buy name brands, remember you want to get more bling for your buck!

Do Buy Insurance: Similar to that of homeowners insurance, jewelry insurance will protect your valuable pieces from being lost, damaged or stolen. A quick appraisal is required before your priceless pieces can be insured.

Don’t be Trashy be Classy: Don’t let trendy styles rule your purchase. Purchase something that is classic and timeless, after all this is an investment piece.
