Something Blue Engagement Ring The New Trend

Updated: Jul 2, 2024

Although some old wedding traditions have slowly disappeared, I for one absolutely love the modern wedding and engagement that gives a gentle nod to old school ways. Especially a tradition that offers luck and that looks this good!


Adding a hint of blue to an engagement ring is one very glamourous way to add something blue to your big moment. Another thing I am obsessed with, it that this lucky charm is usually for the wedding day but why wait? A proposal is the beginning of your marriage journey where you commit to the future you dream of with your partner. The engagement sets the tone for the marriage you desire and what better way to start this off with something blue.




James Allen Top Picks

I had to get my top picks from the amazing James Allen. I am obsessed with these unique settings offering a real stand out ring for the modern women.


All of the above rings can be personalised easily online to select your desired carat size and more. You can also swap to multiple diamond shapes (even for such unique settings) Just one reason they are one of my favourite trusted brands.




Blue Nile Top Picks

With these three rings alone, you can see the true variation of styles and character Blue Nile offers! From a vintage halo to a modern infinity twist band featuring a soft aquamarine stone.


Many ring settings can be easily personalised online from swapping diamond shapes or even gem stones. The trilogy example given here can even be personalised so much that it can feature a marquise sapphire as the middle stone creating an entirely different visual result to suit you.




Downer & Hall Top Picks

Downer & Hall are great for modern quirky features. Look closely at both silver rings and you will notice they are hammered! Such a personalised feature to show the details of a hand made ring and its craftsmanship.


I am personally in love with the gold ring featured as it also have a matching wedding ring that us perfectly stackable! Such a bonus feature!




Diamond Rocks London Top Picks

Diamond Rocks have shown perfectly how vintage sapphire designs can be modernised and that the simplest changes in setting can create such a different look. My personal favourite is the baguette setting shown on the left offering such clean lines and contemporary edges.


This is also another brand that have a very easy 'design you own ring' online where you can select every detail of your stone, shape and size.




Created Brilliance Top Picks

More brilliant work to chose from... brilliance is in the name after all!

Another one for offering a wide variety of designs from classic Trilogies to very modern (and also very in right now) Toi Et Moi ring featured second in this line up.


Another thing I love about Created Brilliance, is that they love a good cathedral setting on a modern ring design. This is of course a personal opinion, but who doesn't love a feature that accentuates the stone in so many ways?




Gold Smith Top Picks

This brand is definitely earned a reputation of a trusted house hold name and I can see why. They cover everything you can image when it comes to fine jewellery design, setting, craftmanship and more.

I may look bias as this is the only brand I have 4 top picks for, but I just couldn't help myself but display such a wide variety of style in one place.




Queensmiths Top Picks



Shop these rings 1, 2, 3

Yet another big name, Queensmiths was always going to be featured and these designs really do show us yet again how unique an individual ring can be. The simply trilogy ring selected shows a wider pear diamond, with this the band is extended for a more contemporary finish.

And can we just take in these halo rings and how they both present classic designs with modern settings creating elegance with a sleek finish.




Net-A-Porter Top Picks

Last but by far not least!

I have an actual obsession with this store and these rings!

Not only are they the most unique selected through out this blog but represent contemporary style while using timeless features.

Using a classic jewel such as a pearl in this Toi Et Moi is genius!

A marquise eye featuring a brilliant diamond inside with such a modern spaced halo is striking!

And then a vintage style flower halo with soft coloured gems such as aquamarine is to die for!


If you are reading this blog, I can only image you are considering a ring for a modern bride to be. If this isn't modern, I don't know what is?
