The New Engagement Ring Trends

From Kate Middleton to Jessica Simpson, more and more people are falling in love with non-diamond engagement rings!  Diamonds have been the traditional engagement ring stone for years, and it’s no surprise why.  With magnificent sparkle and the beauty of diamonds, everyone wants to wear the stone on their ring finger!

But, in recent years, and especially today, there has been an increase in high-profile women opting for engagement rings of a different, more unique caliber!

When Kate Middleton got engaged to Prince William the entire world took notice…of her ring!  Her stunning sapphire center-stone engagement ring is surrounded in diamonds.  The ring once belonged to Prince William’s mother, so it has a special meaning, but something tells us that the Prince would opted for a unique engagement ring regardless!

Engagement isn’t new for Jessica Simpson.  The singer sported a beautiful diamond ring when she was engaged to Nick Lachey.  When it became time for a second soon-to-be walk down the isle, Jessica’s new beau, Eric Johnson decided to get creative with her ring and presented her with a three stone ruby (center) and diamond ring.
