There’s a reason why this pink gold is making a huge comeback—the feminine rosy shade flatters all skin tones.

If you’re considering a colorful center stone, you don’t have to go with a diamond—there are lots of other amazing options out there. Sapphires have been a favorite choice of the royals for years—after all, it’s hard to forget Kate Middleton’s gorgeous 12-carat sparkler. While sapphires come in basically every color, the blue ones in particular symbolize faithfulness and good luck. And, they’re almost as hard (read: durable and scratch-proof) as diamonds. What’s not to love about that?

Even if you’re not a fan of colorful gems, that doesn’t mean you’re out of options where this budget tip is concerned. Moissanite, gray sapphires and white topaz all look similar to white diamonds but cost considerably less

Engagement rings are blooming right now with flowers, petals, vines and other natural motifs plucked straight from the garden. Leaf detailing adds whimsical detail to a classic setting.

Take a cue from vintage-inspired trends and consider a ring with Victorian or art deco flair. You can’t go wrong with an engagement ring with an heirloom quality—it’s both glamorous and timeless.

What’s better than a band of diamonds? Multiple bands of diamonds. It’s twice as pretty and gives any engagement ring a more architectural, fashion-forward feel.

Take a cue from Meghan Markle and opt for not one, but three diamonds. Also called a triology setting, the three stones historically represent a couple’s past, present and future.

You don’t have to shell out for a giant diamond or an over-the-top setting to have a ring that makes an impact. A smaller center stone set in a simple setting feels perfectly dainty and feminine.

Put a fresh twist on the classic halo (read: a ring of pavé diamonds that encircles the center stone) by choosing a more geometric take on this bridal standby. The sharp angles of a hexagonal halo feel instantly modern—while still making your center stone look larger.

An emerald-cut diamond is already unique, but positioning it horizontally on the band (also called an east-west setting) makes it a total standout.

This fashion-forward setting is all the rage right now. It feels less formal than a solitaire setting, but still makes more of a statement than just wearing a band. To really mix it up, opt for an open setting or one with two different diamond shapes—or both.

Why are we so obsessed with the stackables trend? It’s totally customizable. Pile on as many bands as you want to represent different milestones—there are no rules where this cool-girl look is concerned. This unique design consists of two crown-shaped bands that fit together to form a larger ring. Wear them alone to show off the regal design or as a pair for a more ornate look.

If you’re a traditional bride looking for something slightly off the beaten path, a sleek, twisted band adds interest to a white metal setting but doesn’t distract from a gorgeous center stone.
