While diamond solitaires continue to reign supreme, sapphires have long been favored for one of the most sentimental of all jewelry occasions, the engagement ring. And though Kate Middleton’s (formerly Diana’s) ring from Prince William sparked wild interest in sapphires a few years ago, this old-school gem will always remain a top choice for brides-to-be.
More women are involved in the engagement ring purchase than ever before, and that means more women are thinking outside-of-the-ring-box when it comes to styles. While some will always gravitate towards classic looks–which abound in the marketplace–there are others who abide by a new tenet: there are no rules when it comes to engagement rings.

So with that in mind, here are a few stunning (both unique and classic) engagement rings set with sapphires for September.
