8 Styles You’ll Love Now & Forever

Fashion trends these days tend to burn fast and bright, fading almost as fast as they come. After all, we’re living in an era of fleeting TikTok #cores that arrived one day and were swiftly replaced with something like the “Mob Wife” or “Eclectic Grandpa” aesthetics the next. This, however, is not the case with the engagement ring trends of 2024, all of which feel like subtle updates on designs with staying power. Indeed, the latest options out there have the potential to feel relevant for many years to come — so long as your pick and personal taste are aligned.

One smart way to narrow the selection? “Save photos of every ring you like and create a folder of all of them together,” says designer Ashley Zhang, whose vintage-inspired and customized pieces are a hit with fashion-obsessed brides-to-be. “Once you see all these styles side by side it can be helpful to see if there is a common element, or if you don’t like some of them as much as you think you do.”

But if a well-curated mood board helps to focus your engagement ring shopping, trying bands IRL is more likely to inspire in a final decision.

Multi-diamond engagement ring found downtown Kelowna

A multi-diamond engagement ring found in the 1600 block of Bertram Street has been turned over to the Kelowna RCMP who are attempting to find its rightful owner.

A Good Samaritan brought the ring to the detachment on Dec. 27. There was an attempt to find the owner through social media, but was unsuccessful.

“This ring obviously has great meaning to its owner and appears to be well-worn and valuable. The Kelowna RCMP would like to reunite this ring with its rightful home,” said Const. Mike Della-Paolera. “The ring is very distinct and has a word stamped on the inside.”

If you are the owner of this ring and can identify it, please visit the front counter of the Kelowna RCMP Detachment at 1190 Richter Street. Be prepared to provide evidence of ownership or positively identify it, said Const. Della-Paolera.

The Kelowna RCMP will hold this ring for 90 days.

This is the second expensive item to be turned over to the RCMP in the last week. On Dec. 22, a genuine Rolex watch was found outside a restaurant in the 1300 block of Water Street.

RCMP continues to hold onto this item for 90 days as well.
