November has arrived, and with it the element of surprise, as always. Really, we all know logically what follows after October, but somehow with halloween’s excitement the gravy-express-train to Thanksgiving and the holiday vortex just seems so far off. Until it’s 3 days later and the red cups are at Starbucks and you’re gobsmacked about how you got here. Luckily, the thought of turkey lures you into a calm, appropriately trytophan-esque state of denial that there are approximately 90 seconds left in this entire year.
And if the thought of turkey isn’t cutting it, the soothing images of fall’s best engagement rings can’t hurt, right? From warm, rosy settings to festive details, these rings just speak to this season. Here are my top 10 fall engagement rings
This rosey A. Jaffe beauty is a different take on the lace shank. The rounded edges and diamond studded prongs make it unique.
This Verragio double halo beauty reads like a certain line from a certain song taunting snow because certain temperatures never bothered a certain ice sorceress anyway. But really, if this ring doesn’t laugh in the face of snowflakes, more than ready to one-up them, nothing does.
A split shank princess cut halo juxtaposes those crisp edges and hearts & arrows with soft round accent diamonds for a great look.
This Simon G. set was made for each other like any bride hopes for in a soulmate. And with the perfect fit, it’s both symbolic and stunning.
Another Simon G. set I can’t resist. I love the delicate accent diamonds on the shank and its twin wedding band, with a big, bright solitaire diamond stealing the show.
More Verragio, more rose gold. I love that this creates a 4-D effect with a rose gold lace shank over a white gold, diamond studded inner band. The double halo takes it over the edge.
Does the pumpkin help? Absolutely. But all gourds aside, these A. Jaffe halos are fall perfection anyway.
Another A. Jaffe favorite from Diamonds by Raymond lee – I love the mix and match styles of the three different rings. The classic engagement ring, with the contemporary, bubbly bezel set wedding band and the warm yellow gold eternity band sandwiched in between is a modern bride’s dream.
Finally, this Tacori beauty may just be fall, personified. A pear shaped center stone is hugged by a scalloped halo of diamonds and 6 crisp rose gold prongs. The simple, elegant rose and diamond band is the finishing touch on this beauty, which will be available at Diamonds by Raymond Lee, opening February 2016.
