Wedding and engagement rings are a woman’s favourite pieces of jewelry. There is rarely any other jewelry or accessory that lives a life as exciting as an engagement ring. There are various things that a person has to consider when choosing a unique ring, such as its longevity, water, and kitchen cooking safety. 

But most of all is the design that anyone considers. They want the design to be unique and elegant yet comfortable enough to carry out everyday chores easily. If you’ve gone out to look for different engagement rings, we’re sure you must have found a mix of trends. Consequently, it makes it hard to choose which style you want. 

So, here we are to help you out; we’re mentioning the latest ring styles that are perfect for everyone’s style, be it classy, vintage, or modern. Read on! 

1. Vintage Nostalgia 

Vintage fashion is an all-time favourite for jewelry lovers. These days, vintage designs are being made with naturally mined conflict-free diamonds and lab-formed diamonds both. You can choose the heirloom ring and design it in your style. You can put a different band, change the diamond shape, or change the cut to update it to the latest sort. 

You can also use the latest techniques to carve something in the rings, such as the names of your loved ones, or to any special date to honour the particular relation you share with the ring. So, look for an heirloom and transform it by restoring the sentimental value and the design. But if you’re on a tight budget and want to save, you can opt to purchase secondhand engagement rings that are vintage or antique. They’re much less expensive and there’s no need to have them altered unless they don’t fit you, as most vintage rings have unique, timeless designs.

2. Emeralds

Modern brides are looking for new designs; they are no longer obsessed with diamonds, instead going for emeralds. There is an increasing interest in finding rings that have emeralds in them. It could be a single-stone ring or one with multiple stones. Emeralds are elegant and beautiful at the same time. 

The only backdrop here is that emeralds are fragile and thus require more care and attention from the owner. Also, emeralds come in statement colours to become a statement piece of jewelry at your wedding or engagement. You can wear it with any outfit later to accentuate your personality. 

3. Oval Shapes 

Women are now showing increasing interest in oval-shaped rings. It could be in diamonds, sapphires, or emeralds. The oval shape draws attention to the hand and makes the fingers appear longer. If you choose a diamond stone, you can accentuate it further with a decorative band. Additionally, you can find solitaire ovals in the market to bring back the flirty and feminine look.

4. Blingy, Big, and Classy 

Are you one of those who love big and blingy? If yes, understand that the market is full of big diamond rings. The stones are massive and available in different shapes & sizes. People are now buying holo-cut rings again because they can make you look fabulous. You can wear it with any outfit, whether a jumpsuit, professional attire or plain party dress. You do not need to add any other accessory.
