When it comes to engagement style and fashion, there is so much to choose from – almost too much. I would never want to take chances with the biggest day of my life-would you? I often think the best road to take is a safe one, with styles or designs that you know will remain timeless and beautiful. Here are some no fail, classically stylish engagement rings you can’t go wrong with:
I’ve seen so many women wear stunning pave settings – by far one of the most popular styles. Pave settings are unique in that the diamonds are set to create an even or flat looking surface. What’s really fabulous is that pave designs can be paired with many different style wedding rings and are always in fashion, which, as we know, is the key!
The classic solitaire beats them all. I think the best thing about this simple but stunning style is that you can use virtually any size or shape diamond, depending on your setting. And everyone knows that solitaire settings look fabulous on and are guaranteed to match your style, whatever it maybe!
The timelessness of the solitaire engagement ring is its hallmark. Its elegance stems from its simplicity, allowing the single diamond to be the undeniable star of the show. Whether it's a traditional round cut or a more modern princess cut, the solitaire stands as a testament to lasting love. It's the perfect choice for those who appreciate understated beauty where the diamond's brilliance does all the talking. Plus, it's remarkably versatile, fitting seamlessly into not just any style, but also any budget, making it an accessible symbol of commitment for couples everywhere.
I think vintage and antique designs are my favorite type of engagement ring. Vintage and antique styles are so trendy right now. Often, vintage designs have diamonds arranged in pave settings and feature dramatic center stones, such as cushion, radiant or princess cut diamonds. These are great rings and are a great choice if you are looking for something out of the ordinary and to really make a statement.
If pave isn’t your thing, then look for a traditional side stone ring – I think this is definitely a timeless choice. The terms side stone simply refers to the diamonds or precious gems that surround the center stone. I have mostly seen side stone rings set in either a pave or prong setting, but both look gorgeous! Engagement ring side stones can number from 5 to 70 depending on the style of your ring. The sky is the limit!
The three stone engagement ring has always been a classic and simple touch of elegance. I believe the three stone ring is often overlooked for more popular designs but the beautiful thing about this style of ring is that, like the classic solitaire, it can also accommodate many different options in terms of center and side stones. I especially love to see three stone rings with non-traditional center stones, like a pear shape or even gemstone.
