My significant other and I are getting serious about getting engaged, but I’m having commitment issues… about the ring. I feel pressured to choose something classic but something a little more adventurous feels more me. I just don’t want to regret something that is trendy now, but might feel dated later on. Help!
Congratulations! This is a very exciting time for so many reasons and it’s wonderful to be able to celebrate with a piece of jewelry. Your personal taste is what made your partner fall in love with you in the first place, so I definitely think that’s worth shouting from the rooftop. Diamonds with a unique cut or set on a band with unusual texture or different proportion can make a bolder statement than a classic solitaire, which are definitely a go-to for a reason. If diamonds aren’t really your style, why not consider you or your loved one’s birthstone? This purchase is a big investment and a commitment, but following your heart and taste is crucial in making this decision. Just like your person, the ring for you is out there (and likely at Broken English!) - you’ll know it when you see it.
