SIOUX CITY | Thorpe and Co. Jewelers' Karen Clark knows that brides like bling jewelry. "In fact, I'd say today's brides think the 'bling-ier' the better when it comes to wedding jewelry," she said


Getting ready for the Sioux City Journal Bridal Expo, taking place from 1 to 4 p.m. Oct. 11 at the Stoney Creek Inn and Conference Center, Clark said prospective couples are utilizing online sources when searching for the perfect rings, bands or fashion women jewelry.

"The girls are going on (such social networking sites as) Pinterest to share the types of jewelry they like," she explained. "That helps both the groom as well as the jeweler to pinpoint the perfect ring."

When it comes to both engagement and wedding rings, 14-karat gold remain the favorite of most brides-to-be.

"(Fourteen-karat gold) is malleable and can be cast into innumerable designs," Clark said. "Every girls wants her ring to be one-of-a-kind."

That's especially true since the preferred shapes of rings have changed over the years, from the popular marquis shape of the 1980s and 1990s to the princess cut of the early 2000s to the cushion and radiant or round and brilliant shapes that are currently in fashion.

While grooms don't necessarily need "one-of-a-kind" jewelry, men's wedding bands are sold almost as frequently as their bride's wedding rings.
