Cushion Cut Stones
Cushion cut stones are a mix between round cuts and princess cuts. They give off as much shine as it’s round counterparts, but the pillow-like edges give it a soft, romantic feel. If none of the classic stone cuts are calling to you, why not give cushion cut a try?

The biggest trend of the 20s is ditching expensive rings!
For decades the biggest takeaway when looking for an engagement ring is that the more you spend, the better. Interestingly enough, there's no clear reason for why you need to throw so much money on an engagement ring as diamonds depreciate over time.
