Celebrity Engagement Ring: Anne Hathaway
Back in October, we posted this feature on 10 single celebrities and what engagement rings we picture them donning, and this is what we said about the gorgeous Anne Hathaway:
Anne Hathaway always looks impeccable. She is the glamorous girl next door who is quickly cementing her well deserved style icon status. Anne is not afraid to take a fashion risk and experiment with different styles, so for her engagement ring, I choose a unique cut in a classic setting like this pear shaped diamond ring from Jack Kelege.

And when longtime boyfriend Adam Schulman proposed last month, we couldn’t wait to get a glimpse of the ring. Schulman worked with Kwiat jewelers to create this stunning emerald cut engagement ring set on an ultra delicate pave band. Click here to view a closeup of the actual ring.

We have another Kim to talk about today – the newly engaged Kim Zolciak from Real Housewives of Atlanta. While I don’t watch the show, these ladies sure do have a lot of fancy bling to show off! This massive engagement ring is a whopping 10 carats and she posted this photo on Twitter.

10 Single Celebrities & Their Engagement Rings-To-Be
Last week we did a guest post for a fun celebrity wedding blog, CelebrityWeddings411.com and had so much fun putting it together that we thought we’d share it here today.
Being an A-lister can be tough – no privacy, no secrets and a personal life in the public eye, but it’s hard to stay sympathetic when the side-stones of their engagement rings are twice the size of our own (yes Kim Kardashian, I’m talking about you). So today I’m having some fun with everyone’s favorite single celebrity ladies and selecting fabulous rings that we could one day see them donning. From the outrageous to the romantic, from the modern to the classic, these rings are very Hollywood, delightfully gorgeous and pure sparkle.
1. Ashley Olsen
She’s always struck me as the more mature Olsen twin (and there is nothing scientific about this theory), so I have my money on Ashley to become engaged first. I see her in something old and larger than life that would sparkle on her tiny hand, something like this gigantic Chopard emerald cut ring.
2. Kate Bosworth
I love Kate Bosworth’s style – she has her funky looks and her casual days, but when it comes to her engagement ring, I picture her wearing something very feminine and fancy, similar to this Neil Lane cushion cut pink diamond engagement ring.
3. Blake Lively
Some will disagree with this pick, but I see this up and coming A-lister as a trendsetter and a risk taker. She is dating one of the biggest movie stars in the world, Leonardo DiCaprio, who is lavish in his own right. I wouldn’t be surprised to see her in something completely custom, unique and outrageous like this Chopard two tone engagement ring. It’s a statement piece that Blake would own.
4. Kiera Knightley
The always gorgeous Kiera Knightley will undoubtedly sport a more classic design to complement her simple, effortless style. For her, it will be about the diamond, like this flawless emerald cut engagement ring from British jeweler Graff.
5. Anne Hathaway
Anne Hathaway always looks impeccable. She is the glamorous girl next door who is quickly cementing her well deserved style icon status. Anne is not afraid to take a fashion risk and experiment with different styles, so for her engagement ring, I choose a unique cut in a classic setting like this pear shaped diamond ring from Jack Kelege.
6. Angelina Jolie
I don’t see Angelina Jolie wearing a big ring. Brad Pitt has a passion for design and architecture so he would likely collaborate in the creation of a one-of-a-kind piece – something fashion forward and symbolic, but modestly sized (after all, they do have 6 young children). I think this Van Cleef and Arpels diamond paved solitaire ring would suit her wonderfully.
7. Taylor Swift
This 20 year old probably has more than a few years until she makes the trip down the aisle, but I thought this Simon G ring was so romantic and sweet with just the right amount of detailing, that I couldn’t help but include it. It captures the young singer’s style beautifully.
8. Pippa Middleton
Pippa Middleton became an overnight sensation when her sister Kate married the future King of England. She is a modern yet elegant young lady who might as well be royalty so Pippa deserves nothing less than a flawless and very large engagement ring. I see her looking radiant in this three stone emerald cut engagement ring from Asprey London.
9. Jennifer Aniston
She’s a mega star and has a hot new man, so the probability of a Jennifer Aniston engagement announcement is high. Her style is simple, almost minimalistic – she doesn’t drape herself in jewels or take huge fashion risks on the red carpet. She always look comfortable and chic, and so for her engagement ring, Jennifer gets a classic, 3 or 4 carat William Goldberg Asscher cut diamond on a delicate pave band.
10. Rihanna
Whether she’s on stage or out for a morning latte, Rihanna’s style never fails to impress. She is completely unique in a retro-glam sort of way and never looks like she is trying too hard. Rihanna is a diva, and divas wear only the biggest and the best when it comes to their engagement rings. So who better to turn to than Neil Lane and this massive 11.5 carat round brilliant yellow diamond ring. It’s ornate, edgy and makes quite the statement. Wow. Just Wow.
These single ladies had better hurry up and find everlasting love so that we can see how these predictions turn out. Until then we’ll just keep dreaming of shiny pink diamonds and Harry Winston baubles.

Celebrity Engagement Ring: Elizabeth Hurley
The gorgeous Elizabeth Hurley got engaged over the weekend to Australian cricketeer Shane Warren, who proposed with this amazing square cut sapphire with two diamond baguettes.
This will be the second marriage for Hurley, who was wed to Arun Nayer and sported this 15 carat Chopard engagement ring.

Celebrity Engagement Ring: Criss Angel’s New Fiance
Illusionist Criss Angel announced his engagement to Sandra Gonzales this past weekend. He proposed over a romantic beach dinner in Cabo with this enormous 5 carat princess cut diamond engagement ring reportedly worth $300,000.
He seems like a bit of an odd guy to us, but he sure did nail the proposal and the engagement ring. Bravo Criss Angel, Bravo.
Priscilla Presley Engagement Ring
What did the King of Rock choose for his bride? We initially thought it was this ring, but we were corrected by Cillasworld.com. That ring is actually a horseshoe ring that Elvis bought for the two of them.
Her actual ring can be seen in this below photo taken at her engagement shower with 20 detachable stones surrounding the center diamond.
