2010- Engagement Ring Trend#1 Twin Shanks

Every year the designers introduce a new trend to the traditional Engagement Rings for afresh appeal. So before you hit the market do some research, according to the latest research this year the mantra is Twin Shanks. Elaborate and new the center-stone is held with a couple of shanks branching from one. The dual shanks give a fuller and opulent look to the ring making it looking bigger.
 You can choose a ring with plain metallic shanks accentuating a solitaire or since the halo setting is back you can make your ring even plusher with the diamonds accented setting. The setting looks nice with most shapes- round, princess, emerald and pear.
You can also play around with the color of the diamonds for an extra glamorous feel. Blue, Pink, Yellow or Black Diamond; though Black is the diamond color this year.
