that square halo on the first one looks terrible, so nineties/early 2000s lol. not a big fan of the cliche yellow radiant in a halo ring, but that was definitely a needed upgrade.
The engagement rings from *****'s three marriages
Ivana (1977)
Marla (1991, Harry Winston, 7.5 carat)
Melania (2004, Graff, 12 carat)
(it's interesting how similar the last two rings look)

I wonder what her original e ring looked like & how many upgrades to get to this one!
This really is a beautiful ring. I think that I may had been looking at the prongs not the stone.
His buddy is the jeweler and he grew up the only boy in a house of 6 women..
Lindsay Lohan beautiful engagement ring -- a change from tradition she has a emerald center stone.
Can anyone tell me if that is a tradition in Europe not to use a diamond as the center stone?

Trends have varied throughout the ages. The first notable diamond engagement ring was given in the 1400s, but all precious stones have been used historically. Diamonds were popularized in the mid-1900s due to aggressive ad campaigns.
Looks in the same style as Diana's Sapphire Ering, now worn by Kate, Dutchess of Cambridge. Maybe she liked the look but didn't want to copy by wearing a Sapphire. Or Emerald could just be her favorite gemstone.
This is how I feel about halos. It seems that is the only ring everyone wants, so that's all that is out there/promoted. My cousin is a jeweler and to listen to him talk about jewelry and rings, it's an interesting inside look into that field. But to each their own. For me, I think celeb e-rings have just become a "look how much money I can spend" instead of it being about love and commitment. But again, that's just me.
I love hearing the stories about how the man or woman put a lot of time and thought into the ring, even if it is a big ring. I've read stories about taking a family members gem and turning it into a ring, or like Jessica Beil, it's a big stone but Justin incorporated aquamarines because it is Jessica's birth stone. Or even in the fictitious world, like on SATC when Harry replicated Elizabeth Taylor's ring for Charlotte because he knew she loved ET. Those are the rings I like.
But again, that's just me.

Is Lindsay really engaged? I've read conflicting reports where her rep says it is not true, but other articles say friends/sources say it is true.
As for colored gems as engagement rings, I know many women had colored stones going back decades, like Princess Diana and Jackie's ring from JFK, but I think it kind of stalled in the 90s. I think what revived colored stones and brought it back into popularity was J.Lo's pink diamond from Ben Affleck. I remember everyone just going nuts for it. Whenever she was out, or did interviews, everyone just had to see that pink diamond. People couldn't get enough of it. And maybe it was because it was a colored diamond, not just a colored gemstone, but I think it really impacted the engagement industry.
Okay, I've written all my novels now :-P
