Summer Engagement Ring Trends

 

As we make our way through the end of August and into September, it is time to put together a list of engagement ring trends. Before the holiday rush starts in October until the end of the year, here are some trending ideas that could lead you in the right direction when it comes to selecting your dream ring! This summer’s spotlight is on Emerald and Cushion cut diamonds!

 

 

Emerald Cut Diamonds

Elegant and beautifully elongated, emerald cut diamonds are timeless and certainly trending this summer!

 

Three Stone Emerald

Once known as a Disney star and now known for her stunning 10ct. emerald cut diamond, Demi Lovato’s dream three-stone ring has been sparkling through the media since the day her lucky man proposed. Demi’s beautiful diamond is complemented by two perfectly matched step cut trapezoid side stones, just like our LB model LSR-25205.

 

 

Emerald Solitaire Invisible Gallery

Setting an emerald on a solitaire band is a classic way to show off its step-cut faceting. The “hall-of-mirrors”’ effect displayed by an emerald becomes the ring’s true focal point when set upon a plain band, however many women today prefer something with a more modern twist. Enter: our trademarked invisible gallery design!! From the top view, this design gives the illusion of a timeless solitaire, but when viewed from the side its subtle pave diamond wrap and low profile add a touch of sparkle - making the ring both comfortable and decorative.

 

 

East-West Emerald

Talk about a modern twist - literally twisting an emerald cut diamond to set it east-west is a great way to make a ring stand out! Taking it a step further by featuring it in a halo adds some extra brilliance to the design, while adding an extra carat weight’s worth of finger coverage.

 

 

Cushion Cut Diamonds

Our vast inventory full of brilliant cut cushion diamonds comes both square and elongated.. As you may have noticed, these two variations are adding some serious bling to Lauren B’s Instagram this summer!

 

Fancy Yellow Cushion

For those who gravitate toward bold, big, and beautiful statement pieces, a Fancy Yellow cushion cut diamond may be the perfect center stone choice. Set in yellow or platinum on a pave or plain band, a fancy yellow diamond stands out like no other. Choosing a fancy yellow cushion cut diamond is a great way to keep the classic feel of an engagement ring while incorporating the extra pizazz added by a sunny center stone. Pro tip: You can often find similar diamonds in a slightly lighter yellow T-Z range, which are typically less expensive than colorless or Fancy Color graded diamonds!

 

Cushion With Three Row Diamond Band

If you follow us on Instagram, you may have read that Lauren B only carries cushion diamonds with a brilliant make. The facet arrangement in a brilliant cut stone mimics a round diamond, which results in a more even sparkle! Placing your stunning sparkler upon a three-row pave diamond band makes an even bigger statement. Just check out this beautiful 4ct. cushion cut diamond ring linked below!

 

 

Meghan Markle Three Stone Cushion

Meghan Markle’s famous three-stone cushion style ring has certainly been a trendsetter this season. A brilliant cut cushion offset by two round brilliant side stones results in maximum sparkle and shine! Placing this unique three stone combination atop a rose gold band adds some contrast and brings out the whiteness of the center stone.
