3 Engagement Ring Trends That Spiked Because of Celebrities

There are engagement rings, and then there are celebrity engagement rings. A-listers tend to get engaged with some of the biggest and most unique diamonds and for that reason, their rings are in a league of their own. Simply entertaining the price of these infamous celebrity rings can make most of us break a sweat (Blake Lively's stunning 12-carat oval-cut bauble is valued at approximately $2 million), but that definitely doesn't stop us from gleaning inspiration.

In fact, a handful of these famous diamonds have single-handedly sparked engagement ring trends and caused a massive spike in purchases inspired by the real deal. According to Olivia Landau, who's a fourth-generation gemologist and founder and CEO of The Clear Cut, there are three celebrity engagement rings in particular that have influenced more ring purchases than any others.

Curious to find out which stars own these mega-influential diamonds? Keep scrolling to read about each celeb and why their ring had (or continues to have) such an impactful affect.

"Although Blake Lively was engaged a few years ago, her engagement ring has single-handedly started the biggest trend in bridal! Before Blake, the demand for oval diamonds just not there. Ever since her oval diamond on a thing three-row pave band hit the scene, the demand for oval diamonds has only gotten stronger. People love the oval shape because it is feminine and finger flattering. Oval diamonds show their carat weight well and take up a nice amount of real estate on the finger. Who doesn’t love that?"

"Emily’s two stone engagement ring featuring an off-kilter pear-shaped diamond next to a princess cut diamond has created a ton of demand for the two diamond or toi et moi style engagement rings. Many people are always searching for a way to make their engagement rings unique and different from their friends, and the toi et moi style definitely delivers. We have done many toi et moi styles using one heirloom diamond and one new diamond, toi et moi styles with negative space in between and some touching like Emily’s, and toi et mois with diamonds and colored stone pairings. What is so great about the two-stone style, is that each pairing is can be unique and special to each person." 

"Meghan’s three stone ring featuring a cushion-cut center and round brilliant side stones have definitely made three stone engagement rings more popular. Although I have not seen demand for her exact style of three stone rings, we have definitely seen an uptick for the three-stone style in general. Three stone rings are a great way to achieve a larger look!"

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
