If you have ever sat and thought about your future engagement ring, there is probably one big fear that plaques you: what if you hate it? It may not be that you don’t trust your significant other’s taste, or that you’re looking at some sort of massive bling, but rather that you have a style and you own it, so you want your ring to reflect that. Below, we’ve rounded up a few personality types and matching rings. Read on to find one that you think suits you, and then share it with your special some

1. Practical and Classical Personality – a Traditional Ring

If your style and personality is classic, you are sure to prefer a traditional ring. Think in terms of simple band with shimmering diamonds in the centre that will go with almost every outfit you own. You may also prefer a traditional ring if you like the practical things in life. Instead of wasting money on a big blingy accessory, rather consider a simple ring with a clean band, and a single diamond

2. Earthy or Whimsy – a Bohemian Ring

On the other end of the scale is the whimsical and earth-loving bride. If that’s you, your style tends to be more deliberate, even if everything from your décor to your wardrobe have an effortless and breezy look. You may choose an art deco engagement ring from Kalmar Antiques, or something a little out of the ordinary. BoHo bridal gowns usually look sensational with rings that have moonstones or opals in the centre, but you may also like bling with an intricate band

3.Structure, Sleek, or Artistic – a Modern Ring

If you’re an art lover, your engagement ring can be as thought-provoking as a piece of art in the gallery next door. For instance, a bespoke design could have a geometrically cut diamond, be it perfectly round or even square. What’s more, a simple band will give you a sophisticated and modern ring that works with your personality. These kinds of rings work well not only for modern art aficionados but also for ladies whose wardrobes tend to be chic, simple, and somewhat crisp

4. Girly, or Centre of Attention – a Glamorous Ring

If you have already decided that your wedding is the perfect excuse to go full princess, a glamorous ring is the way to go. A rather large rock with a band encrusted with diamonds will suit your personality and eye-catching wardrobe perfectly. You could then stack your ring with an equally sensational wedding band just to take the bling factor to an entirely new level.

Each bride, and her personality, is different. If you are still not too sure where you fall, you can simply start shopping. Try on different rings to figure out what feels right and what fits. Remember, you’re going to be wearing your engagement ring for a long time, so it ought to reflect your personality.
