3 things to avoid when choosing an engagement ring, according to jewelers

  • Even in the fine jewelry world, trends come and go.

  • Business Insider spoke to jewelers about which engagement ring trends to avoid.

  • They said it’s important to prioritize your personal style over trends.

When it comes to fashion and beauty trends, they fade as fast as they go viral.

In the case of an engagement ring, it should last the test of time.

Business Insider previously covered the engagement ring trends of 2024;elm:context_link;itc:0″ class=”link “top engagement ring trends of 2024, and two jewelers have also weighed in on trends to avoid.

They said trending styles are pointless if they don’t fit with your lifestyle or personal aesthetic. After all, your engagement ring might be the most personal fashion accessory you ever carry.

Stacking rings are expensive, and aren’t future-proof if they need to be sold or redesigned

Beanie Major, a jewelry consultant and founder of engagement ring consultancy service In Detail, told BI that a popular trend in the last five years was multiple rings worn in place of one large engagement ring.

“It was very small stones that weren’t necessarily of huge value, but collectively, the rings would be quite expensive,” Major added.

She told BI redesigning engagement rings is also becoming a popular trend. The reason for this surge in popularity is that people are getting braver and bolder with their choices.

Major said people who are likely to do this in the future should consider one large stone over multiple small stones. This will hold its value better, and give jewelry designers more to work with.

Don’t prioritize trends over your personal style

Both jewelers agreed buyers should be aware of the trends, but this shouldn’t

In her latest look, the JLo Beauty founder captured attention in a skintight beige bodycon dress from It-girl-adored label Magda Butrym. Opting for muted tones from head to toe (surprising for JLo yet unsurprising in the quiet luxury landscape), she paired her dress with transparent pointed-toe pumps, a nude manicure and her ultra elegant sleek bronde locks.

She finished off her look with a dazzling diamond ring from jewellery label Effy – the brand founded by the late designer Emmy Hematian in 1979. The dazzling ‘Bouquet 14K White Gold Diamond Ring’ is adorned with round diamonds, making a statement from every angle.

Though we know JLo is already married to her former Y2K sweetheart Ben Affleck, her Effy piece is actually the perfect engagement ring.

Forking out £2,512 on a ring isn’t exactly cheap, but it’s much more affordable than plenty of diamond-clad engagement rings on the market. JLo’s own engagement ring from Ben is worth between $5m and $10m dollars according to Stylecaster: “JLo’s new engagement ring is 8.5 carats with a natural green diamond center stone. The ring is estimated to cost between $5 million to $10 million. The diamond was sourced by Ilan Portugali of Beverly Hills Diamonds. ‘Congratulations Ben & @jlo on your engagement’”.

“My mom would have approved of the ring. Oh yeah, and of Steve too!” said Rivers, who is the daughter of late comedian Joan Rivers.

Melissa Rivers is a bride-to-be!

“It’s a big step for both for us and I’m still in complete and total shock, even a month later, but beyond happy,” Rivers said. “And more importantly, my mom would have approved of the ring. Oh yeah, and of Steve too!”

While speaking with PEOPLE, Rivers, 55, said she and Mitchel first met at a Didi Hirsch Mental Health and Suicide Prevention event.

Engagement ring drama | Boston.com

A.

I am not a jewelry person. I invite those who have feelings about engagement rings to chime in, please.

My take: it makes sense that you’re upset, but I’m not sure it’ll help to have this specific issue acknowledged. She’s not going to return that ring or apologize. Also, no one is asking the two of you to stand next to each other and hold out your hands for inspection. The people in your life will see your ring. The people in hers will see that one. At family gatherings, everyone knows the timeline.

I love weddings – as a guest – but I get the sense they’re very stressful for the people involved. Some of the rituals that go along with the process can take already complicated relationships and make them kind of miserable. Know that the next few months might be a period of heightened feelings. Maybe you can wait to see how much this bothers you after the big events are over. 

Try to remember that with weddings, people imitate cool things they’ve seen. That’s why there are so many magazines and websites about them. 

The bigger issue here is that you might not enjoy this woman very much, in general. Remember, she’s not a friend, she’s family. There will be more of these moments – comparisons and duplication (especially if there are kids involved). Get used to saying, “I’m an influencer!” and letting it go – unless it seems more malicious. That’s when a discussion might be worthwhile. But it’ll be more about boundaries. She’s not going to change.

Try to see less of her, if you can. That’s probably not a real option at the moment, as both of you are having life events that involve family. But sometimes it’s best to talk to
