Own Kitty’s ring, or a cheap imitation
You may not be able to score a fiance as handsome as Rob Lowe, and the pricetag for that Monique Lhuillier dress Kitty wore may be too steep for your budget. But for just $75, you can make sure your beau presents you with Kitty’s engagement ring, or a lovely knocked-off version thereof (’cause, like, Kitty’s still wearing hers).
The bauble is for sale in the ABC store, right next to a variety of Walker Landing picnic baskets and totes and Ts. Do they have a gift shop at Walker Landing, by the way? A little spot where, on the way out after, say, a high-powered political wedding, you could score a couple of wine glasses and a coffee mug? Really, Holly should get on that.
Back to Kitty’s ring, ABC-style. It boasts a center stone that is nearly one carat of cubic zirconia, with baguettes on each side and a lustrous rhodium/platinum plated band. I’m guessing Kitty’s version had diamonds, but maybe she’d better check. I think Robert said something about it being a family heirloom, but you know how much you can trust politicians. They’ll even pretend to want children if it gets your vote.
The ABC store seems to be making a small business of selling imitation engagement rings and wedding bands. If Kitty’s doesn’t suit you, you can also shop for Nicole’s Wedding Band from What About Brian; Carly’s Engagement Ring and Wedding Band from General Hospital; and a rose ring inspired by Wilhelmina’s engagement ring on Ugly Betty.
The authenticity of these replicas may be a “buyer beware” affair, though, since they’re selling something called Elizabeth’s Three Stone Ring in the General Hospital store that looks to me to be exactly the same as what they’re calling Kitty’s engagement ring. Is Robert two-timing our girl, handing out lookalike rings all around? Where’s that annoying muckraking blogger when you need him?
