[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op - I do love my original ring. I just sometimes feel out of place when I am around my DH’s work colleagues and their wives. He is in big law/tech sort of job so everyone makes $$$.

Perhaps instead I will get a ring for my right hand or I was thinking of just getting a big chunky eternity ring to wear to alternate between the two. [/quote]
Firm events, people hosting parties, weddings, sporting events, conferences etc.

You're going to get a bigger ring because other people have bigger rings?  Please just donate your money to a charity and call it a day.[/quote]

My spouse is a big law partner.  I don’t even wear my engagement ring.  I have a very narrow platinum band and that’s it.  I don’t think anyone cares, at least in big law. The days of that stuff mattering are long done.  I don’t know about the tech wives!  [/quote]
My wife is a big law partner and those pay far more attention to handbags than they do rings.[/quote]

BigLaw wife partner.  Where are the wives seeing each other?  I never see the other spouses.  We aren’t invited to the holiday party and the partner that used to throw the nice summer party moved away.   I have two purses — one I bought on Amazon and one I got at a little place in Rome for like $150.  I have literally never noticed what purse another woman is carrying.  I’m a law firm partner as well, but not big law.  The times I’ve met spouses, I did not get the sense that anyone cared about stuff like jewelry or purses.  It is a real mix of other lawyers, feds, non profit types, a few mostly older stay at home moms who seemed pretty laid back and mote worried about where there kids were playing a club sport or gojng to college than jewelry.
