Virtual Engagement Ring Try-On: See Fit to Sparkle

Oh, how to choose an engagement ring? Will the diamond cut complement the shape of your finger? Will the metal color suit your skin tone? White gold and platinum, for example, look great against a cool skin tone, whereas yellow and rose gold are better suited to warmer skin tones. As for shape, certain diamond cuts such as oval create the illusion of length and serve to elegantly elongate fingers. By simulating how the ring will look on your hand with our Virtual Engagement Ring Try-On, it’s easier to choose between different customization options. Speaking of customizing, give our ring sizer a shot and explore various other options to make sure you find your perfect fit.

Here are some picture-perfect rings to get you started:

Okay, so you’ve found your dream engagement ring on JamesAllen.com. You’ve spun it around 360° until you were dizzy with sparkle. Perhaps you’ve even tried it on for size using our Virtual Ring Try-On. In order to bag that bodacious bling, you’ll probably want to enlist the help of your partner in shine; your best friend. Especially if you don’t feel comfortable dropping a hint yourself. Who better to give your SO a nudge and a wink to ensure you’re both in perfect sync?

Design your own engagement ring.

Subliminal Sparkle

If you want to distract your partner with something shiny, here are some surefire ways to drop a hint.

Drop a Hint: Wham, Bam, Instagram!

There are a couple of ways to share your sparkly find via Instagram. Browse our feed for inspo and save your favorites to a dedicated engagement ring collection. If you’re trying to keep things low-key, direct message is your best bet.

Alternatively, if you don’t mind everyone knowing your deepest diamond desires, you can tag your SO in an Instagram post using #jamesallenrings. Pro tip: Include the ring’s style number so they can easily identify it.

Drop a Hint: Pique Their Pinterest

Pinterest is a great source of engagement ring inspiration for both you and your partner. Once you’ve figured out your unique ring style, it’s time to drop a hint.

Pin a ring (or two) to your board or repin one of our expertly curated pins. When you’re done, make your board public and share it with your SO, or keep it private and invite them to be a collaborator.

Pinned all your hopes on a James Allen ring? You might want to save these popular pins to your board:

  • Diamond Shapes
  • Danhov Solitaire
  • Modified French Cut Six-Prong
  • Cushion Outline Halo
  • Crossover Pavé
  • Enchanted Filigree

Drop a Hint: Love at First Site

You can also drop a hint via our website. Simply find a ring you like and click the Hint It icon. You’ll be prompted to enter the recipient’s (and your) contact details.

Of course, with hundreds of exquisite rings to choose from, sometimes it’s hard to pick just one. If you find yourself torn between a number of sparklers, add them all to your wish list and share that with your SO.

Click the heart icon next to each ring to add to your wish list.
