Years after getting engaged and married myself, one of the things I enjoy is planning weddings and helping friends and loved ones pick engagement rings. In fact, I even started an Instagram mood board, “When at Last,” to share my favorite things along the way. While weddings are a recurring event, engagement rings are a daily reminder of the love and commitment a couple shares. Rings often reflect personal style, and that’s where it gets interesting.
My Instagram feed is the best place to get engagement ring inspiration. I’m always curious to see what style choices my favorite fashionistas are up to. Below, I’ve rounded up 11 stunning engagement rings that are sure to inspire and delight even those long since married. From classic emerald cut diamonds to three-stone rings and more whimsical, fashion-forward settings, there’s something for every taste.

Natalie Cantell: Creative and Style Director
Creative Style Director Natalie Cantell designed the “Art Deco-inspired Sunburst Dream” with Naveya & Sloan. She adds, “All the solitaire diamond engagement rings were too grown-up and I felt like I was wearing someone else’s ring, so the cocktail ring I’ve been wearing is more in line with my style. I don’t feel like stacking with a traditional band is my style, so instead I’m thinking of getting an off-hand wedding band. Maybe a Cartier Love Ring or something we designed together. It would be a lovely reminder that you can really do whatever you want when it comes to your wedding.”
