Choosing rings for engagement can be tricky. You must fall head over heels in love with the items because they're supposed to be with you for the rest of your life. This is one occasion when settling for second best simply won't do.
The only trouble is, you might be lacking inspiration. Conjuring up images of what you want from your imagination and then trying to find rings that match this isn't easy. Instead, you might benefit from turning to the celebs for inspiration. The rich and famous are positively dripping with diamonds and you're bound to see styles and ideas that take your fancy.
Could Jennifer Aniston's engagement ring hold the key?
Perhaps seeing actress Jennifer Aniston's new engagement ring will provide you with food for thought. This summer, beau Justin Theroux proposed to her and according to a report in the Huffington Post, the ring recently emerged from the press-proof bunker in which it had been hiding.
The news source noted that according to one jeweller, the sparkler could have cost as much as $500,000 (£311,000). It also quoted ABC, which described the diamond as a monster and noted that Time had remarked: The gigantic ring seems to take up nearly a third of her ring finger.
Meanwhile, several of Aniston's friends have suggested that the diamond could be eight or nine carats.
Hollywood glamour without the price tag to match
Of course, even if you like the look of Aniston's engagement ring, the prospect of shelling out hundreds of thousands of pounds to get a similar one may be a little far-fetched. However, the good news is, that help is at hand.
