Best Engagement Rings 2013
37 Rock-Solid Reasons to Put a Ring on It
There's nothing like some sparkling eye candy to start the weekend off right. Whether you're spoken for or not, this ring roundup isn't just geared toward the wedding-aisle-bound (and hopeless romantics). It also provides a sound lineup of sparkly eye candy, fodder for those "treat yourself" moments, and more than a few aspirational pieces worth adding to your wish list. The girl who is trying to drop subtle hints will find her perfect (ring) match inside, but we've also got a feeling the girl who just loves a great statement piece will find what she's looking for too. From traditional princess-cut varieties to minimalist bands to more off-the-cuff gem-encrusted iterations, we've found rings aplenty — versatile enough to fit almost any style personality — at every price point. The prettiest, the quirkiest, and the most drop-down-on-bended-knee rings worth poring over, right this way.
How would we describe this Anna Sheffield Eleonore Bridal Set ($30,000)? Stunning. The sheer cushion-cut diamond sparkle is enough to turn heads again and again.
This Heirlooms Edwardian 18-karat gold, platinum, diamond, and sapphire ring ($14,660) could easily be something that's been passed down for generations, but instead, we've found one that just looks the vintage part.
If Gwyneth Paltrow and Ashley Olsen swear by Jennifer Meyer's gorgeous designs, then so do we. And what better way to indulge with this trio of 18-karat white-gold diamond stacking rings ($1,500).

We love the feel of this branch-shaped Broken English ring ($1,150) because it happens to be a perfect balance of free spirited and luxurious.
This pricey Doyle & Doyle engagement ring ($22,950) is simply jaw-dropping . . . we're currently trying to make a list of justifiable reasons why this is worth the splurge. Number one reason? Just look at it.

Classic and totally pretty — what more could you want from this Monica Vinader 18-karat rose gold diamond ring ($305)?
Chanel's Camélia wedding band (inquire for price) is quintessential Chanel, done up in the iconic camellia flower shape and stunning in its finish.
This Satomi Kawakita hexagon white diamond ring ($590) is the perfect combination of stunning, sparkly, and antique-inspired.
Anna Sheffield's Hazeline Princess ($11,000) showcases a classic solitaire silhouette with just a little bit of personality, and the coolest part? The design is based off of a ring that belonged to Anna's grandmother.
The Pomellato M'ama Non M'ama ring ($3,075) fuses a girlier sentiment with beautiful diamonds and a sleek finish.
So, this ring is no joke; neither is the price tag. And there's a reason it's called the Covet ring.

This Cathy Waterman platinum and diamond band ($6,520) is perfect for the style setter who loves feminine wares and soft silhouettes.
We instantly fell in love with this sweet, but not simple, Anna Sheffield wheat promise set ($2,400), which convinces us of the power of two (instead of one).

The slightly edgier feel of this geometric-inspired setting leads us to believe that this Katie Rowland Satori harmony halo ring ($5,400) is made for the girl who doesn't want just any old diamond ring.
Maybe it's the art deco appeal of this House of Lavande Jomaz blue ring ($498), but the blue enamel and diamante accents are lush enough to be engagement worthy.
