Los Angeles has its own unique style. The city of angels has drawn people from all over the world and has become one of the most diverse cities in America. This melting pot of cultures and styles has created a whole new style that feels distinctly LA. Los Angeles is a city of big dreamers, whether they are Hollywood dreamers or just those who seek to live a beautiful life in the city of sunshine. This has created some strong trends in engagement rings in the city, as couples are drawn to certain beautiful designs that speak to their personalities. Let’s take a look at the four major trends that are dominating the LA engagement ring scene.
Vintage-Inspired Rings
Vintage-inspired rings are trending across the country. Today’s age of rapidly advancing technology has also created a nostalgia for simpler times. The vintage era feels romantic and historic to many of today’s couples. The vintage trend is especially strong in Los Angeles, where floral or “vine-like” vintage engagement rings have become the most popular of all vintage-inspired styles. The old Hollywood feel of these winding, romantic designs have struck a chord with Angelenos.
Halo Settings
‘Naomi’ Halo Diamond Engagement Ring in 14k White Gold
Halo settings have antique origins— the halo setting was created in the 18th century. But this setting has shimmered its way back into the spotlight in recent years and is perhaps the most popular trend in engagement rings today. The halo setting consists of smaller diamonds that surround one large center stone, making the overall “shine” factor of the ring practically double. It’s no surprise that this blinged out design is popular in Los Angeles. This ultra flashy design is all the rage in a city that runs on glamour.
Solitaire
Alecia Solitaire Diamond Engagement Ring In 14k White Gold
Solitaire engagement rings are rings that have only one “solitaire” center stone and no other smaller ones on the setting or band. This design has gained popularity in Los Angeles because it has a classic look but still creates glamour. The lack of distractions in this design allows all the focus to go to the center diamond. Solitaire rings of all kinds are trending in LA but the most popular style is one with a simple and very thin band, which makes the center diamond look larger.
Unique Rings

LA is a city that runs on creativity and diversity. This has made non-traditional engagement rings incredibly popular as Angeleno couples look for more unique styles to express themselves. Colored center stones, whether they are colored diamonds or gemstones, are a very popular way to make an engagement ring more unique. Another way people are separating their engagement rings from the crowd is by choosing less common stone cuts like oval, pear, emerald, or Asscher, and steering clear of the more common round, princess, and cushion cuts. The less commonly used rose gold is also trending, as is the practice of using mixed metals. When it comes to having a unique ring, a variety of options are key.
