She had to make a difficult decision after a life-changing one.

Victoria’s Secret model Shanina Shaik had to make two big decisions at once when her boyfriend, a celebrity DJ named Ruckus, not only asked for her hand in marriage, but did so with her choice of two engagement rings, the New York Post writes. The article says that Ruckus proposed to her on a private beach owned by his cousin, singer Lenny Kravitz. “When he proposed, there were two rings for me to choose from. It was really beautiful,” says Shaik, (seen below with Ruckus in an image from her Twitter feed.)

When There’s No Succession Plan, Call Wilkerson

Bob Wesley, owner of Robert C. Wesley Jewelers in Scottsdale, Ariz., was a third-generation jeweler. When it was time to enjoy life on the other side of the counter, he weighed his options. His lease was nearing renewal time and with no succession plan, he decided it was time to call Wilkerson. There was plenty of inventory to sell and at first, says Wesley, he thought he might try to manage a sale himself. But he’s glad he didn’t. “There’s no way I could have done this as well as Wilkerson,” he says. Wilkerson took responsibility for the entire event, with every detail — from advertising to accounting — done, dusted and managed by the Wilkerson team. “It’s the complete package,” he says of the Wilkerson method of helping jewelers to easily go on to the next phase of their lives. “There’s no way any retailer can duplicate what they’ve done.”
