33 Enchanting Engagement Rings Inspired by Taylor Swift's Eras

Few things in life are more exciting than entering your engaged era—and if you (or your partner) happen to be a Swiftie, we can't think of anything better than proposing with a Taylor Swift-inspired engagement ring. While Taylor herself doesn't have an engagement ring to pull inspiration from (yet!), she does have 11 vastly different eras that can help guide your search for the perfect proposal piece.

While some Taylor Swift-inspired engagement rings can be taken literally (like getting a ruby gemstone for Red, obvi), there are other, subtle ways to pay homage to your favorite songs, albums and lyrics. Below, we've rounded up 33 Taylor Swift engagement rings for each era. Because, let's be real: You *could* marry your S.O. with paper rings, but you deserve a real sparkler too.

Taylor Swift

Released in 2006, Taylor Swift's first self-titled album is lovingly referred to as her "Debut" era among fans. Sweet, sassy and with a bit of country flair, this Taylor Swift era translates to classic engagement rings in our eyes. Here are our favorite picks that correlate to the album that started it all.

Blue Nile Classic Four-Prong Solitaire Engagement Ring

The Taylor Swift album gave us classic hits like "Our Song" and "Teardrops on My Guitar." While her discography has grown and matured in the years since this release, there's no denying that the OG era is *peak* Taylor Swift. That's why we recommend getting a timeless engagement ring if this is your favorite era. You simply can't go wrong with a four-prong solitaire engagement ring, especially with a round center stone. There's a reason this time-honored look has been the most popular engagement ring style for decades.

Brilliant Earth Secret Halo Diamond Engagement Ring

The pun writes itself for this Taylor Swift-inspired engagement ring. If your S.O. once had an emotional attachment to "Teardrops on My Guitar," they'll be obsessed with this pear (or teardrop) shaped engagement ring. Not only is this a finger-flattering shape, pears tend to appear larger than their carat weight, giving you more bang for your buck. We love the addition of a hidden halo around the basket, which adds the subtlest pop of extra sparkle.

Ring Concierge Old Mine Engagement Ring with Hidden Halo

Considering this album is the first one in Swift's discography, we can't help but pair the debut era with a vintage diamond cut, like this Old Mine engagement ring. It may seem like a typical diamond at first glance, but a deeper look reveals facets that are larger and asymmetrical. That's because modern diamonds are cut by machines, while Old Mine diamonds are inspired by gems that were once cut by hand. Ideal for someone who wants a timeless design that isn't too modern, an Old Mine engagement ring has a classic look from far away—but up close, it gives off a unique effect you won't see on many other hands.

Fearless

If Fearless was the album you blasted while getting ready for your high school football games, we see you. Known for its recognizable golden yellow hue, this Taylor Swift era is about as nostalgic as it gets.

Jean Dousset Chelsea Bezel Solitaire Lab Diamond Engagement Ring

It goes without saying that a Fearless-inspired engagement ring should have a gold setting. We love this sleek bezel from Jean Dousset (who, by the way, is the great-great-grandson of Louis Cartier). Although bezel settings are known as a vintage style (kind of like this older era, cough cough), they've had a comeback in recent years…just like Fearless after its re-recording was released. Not only does the all-encompassing setting give your diamond extra security, this particular style has a high-polish border, making the design look extra chic and fashion-forward.

Shane Co. Timeless Solitaire Engagement Ring

Photo: Shane Co.

Taylor Swift looked like a princess in the Love Story music video, where her beloved knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring in front of a towering castle. We like to think of the square Asscher diamond shape as a modern iteration of the princess cut, making this a regal selection for Fearless aficionados.

Marrow Fine Imperial Topaz Abstract Bezel Ring

Photo: Marrow Fine

If you love the warm hue of the Fearless album cover, a topaz engagement ring may be the engagement ring for you. We're fond of this ring's abstract bezel setting, which gives off the same energy as the iconic hair flip associated with this era.

Speak Now

Speak Now fans are lovers at heart. After all, this romantic, whimsical era featured quite a few nods to weddings. Plus, the imagery associated with the lyrics is downright magical. Here are a few ~enchanting~ engagement rings for the Speak Now stans out there.

James Allen Classic Round Shape Three Stone Engagement Ring

Photo: James Allen

While the definition of a "perfect" engagement ring will vary among everyone's personal tastes, there's no denying that more diamonds wouldn't hurt. Three-stone engagement rings are one of the top trends right now, as people can't help but gravitate to flashy designs that offer serious finger coverage. We love this dazzling trio from James Allen, which has dainty round diamonds flanking a matching center stone. If you pop the question with this Speak Now-inspired engagement ring, we have a feeling your fiancé will say yes…followed by, "This ring is the best thing that's ever been mine."

Marrow Fine Purple Sapphire Twist Ring

Photo: Marrow Fine

Take one look at this twisted engagement ring band and try to tell us it *doesn't* look like Taylor Swift's skirt on the Speak Now cover. We've got all the heart eyes for this whimsical design from Marrow Fine, which highlights a lovely lavender sapphire at the center. The satin-like effect of the setting makes this an easy choice for any Speak Now devotée.

Vera Wang Diamond & Blue Sapphire Engagement Ring

Do you also go back to December all the time? While the birthstone for the last month of the year is turquoise, it's not the best material for an engagement ring. That said, blue sapphire is a close dupe, and it serves as a beautiful nod to one of the songs that helped define the Speak Now era. We love this sparkly design from wedding industry maven Vera Wang, which features a deep cerulean center stone within a halo of diamonds with smaller sapphire and diamond stones lining the band.

Red

I don't know about you, but finding a Red era engagement ring is quite simple. Rather than opt for a traditional white diamond, consider a gemstone, like a ruby or a red sapphire. Here are some of our favorites.

GemsNY Rectangle Cushion Ruby Hidden Halo Ring

Photo: GemsNY

We love this burning red cushion-cut ruby, which is set in a delicate prong halo. In fact, some would say this fiery ring is like the colors in autumn, so bright, just before they lose it all. Ideal for the non-traditional jewelry lover in your life, this gemstone engagement ring features a hidden halo for a subtle pop of sparkle.

Grown Brilliance Oval and Pear Lab Grown Diamond Engagement Ring

Photo: Grown Briliance

If a ruby engagement ring is a little on the nose, the Red lover in your life might prefer this two-stone engagement ring, which features a ruby *and* a diamond. In this lab-created engagement ring design, two gorgeous gems lay next to each other on a gold band, creating a look that's fun and flirty—just like this era.

Noémie Selene Moonlight Round Diamond Engagement Ring

Photo: Noémie

One of our favorite Red fun facts is that the song "Starlight" was inspired by the love story of Bobby and Ethel Kennedy. Based on the name alone, we can't help but link this song with Noémie's moonlight diamond engagement ring. Despite the round center stone, it sits in a crescent-shaped setting, giving off a pointed, star-like appearance. (The similar names are just a bonus!)

1989

When you think of the 1989 era, you probably envision disco balls, neon lights and New York City. Fun, flirty and sparkly, this Taylor Swift era can be interpreted in so many fun engagement ring styles, which we highlight below.

Dana Rebecca Designs Oval Pavé Solitaire Engagement Ring

Photo: Dana Rebecca Designs

Want to know what'll never go out of style? This Dana Rebecca Designs engagement ring. In case you haven't heard, ovals are on their way to becoming the new round-cut diamonds. More and more people are falling in love with this elongated finger-flattering shape, meaning you simply can't go wrong with a design like this one. Even better, the glittering pavé setting reminds us of the dazzling NYC skyline at night.

Blue Nile Oval Aquamarine and Diamond Sidestone Ring

Photo: Blue Nile

Based on aesthetics alone, this engagement ring is the perfect representation of the 1989 era. A striking aquamarine gem sits between two diamond side stones, creating a beautiful rendition of the new album art for the re-release. Once the ring is in your possession, plan a proposal on the beach for the full 1989 effect.

VRAI Floating Split Band Round Brilliant Engagement Ring

Photo: VRAI

Blank space on your engagement ring? The concept isn't as crazy as it sounds. The Swiftie who loves this 1989 hit will be delighted by the clever metaphor presented in this engagement ring. Known for its nontraditional look, a split shank band has—you guessed it—black space next to the center stone, making it appear as though it's floating above the finger.

Reputation

When you think of a Reputation-inspired engagement ring, you might link this era with an inky black onyx stone or a rich green emerald—but these styles are far from your only option. Keep scrolling to discover our favorite "cool girl" engagement rings that are perfect for the Reputation fan in your life.

Marrow Fine Black Diamond Pear and Old Mine Cut Toi et Moi Ring

Photo: Marrow Fine

If your partner is daring enough for a black engagement ring, they'll fall in love with this edgy toi et moi design. French for "you and me," the name alone is perfectly aligned with the swoon-worthy love songs on this album (like "King of My Heart" and "Call It What You Want.") An onyx pear diamond sits next to a bezel-set Old Mine diamond, which creates an engagement ring that's fresh, modern and impossibly cool.

GemsNY Marquise Emerald Bypass Ring

Photo: GemsNY

Slithering snakes and Reputation go hand-in-hand. If you love the snarky symbolism associated with this era, you might fall in love with this serpentine-esque engagement ring from GemsNY. A bright green marquise stone sits within an open bypass prong setting, and you simply can't deny its resemblance to Karyn the cobra. (IYKYK.)

Charles & Colvard Marquise Classic Solitaire Engagement Ring

Photo: Charles & Colvard

Remember that iconic bathtub scene in the "Look What You Made Me Do" music video? (You know, the one where Taylor casually sits in a pool of diamonds.) While you might not be able to recreate that exact situation for your engagement, you can propose with a ring inspired by one of the baubles she's wearing. This lab-grown marquise-cut engagement ring is a near-perfect dupe for the sparkler that sits on her pointer finger—but let's be honest, it would look absolutely gorgeous on your partner's ring finger.

Lover

The Lover era conjures up images of pink, gold and lilac. This romantic album delivered instant wedding classics, from "Lover" (which is now one of the most popular first dance songs) to swoon-worthy deep cuts like "Daylight" and "Paper Rings." It's only fair, then, for this era to be represented by engagement ring designs that are just as romantic.

Erika Winters Laurel Oval Solitaire Diamond Engagement Ring

Nothing screams "Lover" quite like a rose gold engagement ring. We love the subtle symbolism of this ring from Greenwich St. Jewelers, which is located in Tribeca—AKA one of Taylor Swift's favorite NYC neighborhoods. While oval-cut engagement rings are soaring in popularity, the unique knife-edge setting of this rosy band sets it apart from other designs.

KAY Jewelers Oval Diamond Bridal Ring

Photo: KAY Jewelers

Lover gave us some of Taylor Swift's most romantic lyrics, well, ever. One of our favorite ways to pay homage to the title track of this album is to engrave your engagement ring with a meaningful lyric. Thanks to this KAY Jewelers engagement ring, you can easily customize every element of the design, from the diamond to gemstone shape to the mounting and even the color of the side stones. Then, before you finish, add your own personal engraving. Consider using something like "All's well that ends well" or "Darling, you're my lover."

Kwiat Engagement Ring with Radiant Yellow Diamond and Side Stones

Photo: Kwiat

A wise woman once said she thought love would be burning red, but it's golden. If that adage speaks to your love story, allow us to introduce you to this Kwiat yellow diamond engagement ring. Thanks to its brilliant radiant cut, this dazzling center stone shines like the sun at peak daylight. We can't think of a better Lover-inspired engagement ring.

Folklore

Taylor Swift shocked the world with the release of Folklore in 2020. Not only was the album completely unexpected, the folksy soundtrack was a stark departure from her typical pop sound. She would later explain to fans that many of the album's storylines were fictionalized tales from bygone eras she dreamed up while isolating during the pandemic. As such, we interpret Folklore-inspired engagement rings to feature vintage-inspired details.

The North Way Studio Aurélie Ring in Natural Sapphire and Diamond

Photo: The North Way Studio

What treasures would you find in Betty or Augustine's jewelry box? You might discover something like this gilded engagement ring from The North Way Studio, which was made in collaboration with wedding dress designer Claire Pettibone. An opalescent sapphire sits within a milgrain bezel setting on a knife-edge band, which has unfurling leaf-like details and a rustic satin finish. Doesn't this just scream "august"? While we love this particular ring, the entire Secret Garden collection exudes Folklore energy.

Shane Co. Woodland Wedding Set

Photo: Shane Co.

Most Swifties associate this Grammy-winning album with the cottagecore aesthetic, so we can't think of anything more appropriate than Shane Co.'s woodland wedding set. The center stone of your choice sits within a woven, botanical setting, which is ideal for the wearer who wants to listen to "seven" while frolicking in a field of wildflowers.

With Clarity Elegance Emerald Cut Side Stone Engagement Ring

Photo: With Clarity

Let's turn to "The Last Great American Dynasty" for some ringspo, shall we? This biographical song tells the tale of Rebekah Harkness, an American socialite who owned Taylor Swift's famed Rhode Island mansion in the 1950s. She was married to Bill Harkness, a successful attorney and heir to the Standard Oil fortune. As such, the Harkness name is synonymous with old money—and nothing says old money quite like an emerald-cut engagement ring. Known for its unique "hall of mirrors" step-cut effect, this timeless diamond shape exudes elegance and class. We love this particular style, which features an emerald-cut center stone flanked by two smaller emeralds on each side, including a hidden halo for extra sparkle.

Evermore

Folklore's sister album, Evermore, has a corresponding woodsy aesthetic. Released just a few months after its predecessor, this tracklist has a similar sound—which means we associate it with similar engagement ring styles too. Shop our top picks below.

Brilliant Earth Arden Diamond Engagement Ring with Emerald Accents

If you always have songs like "ivy" and "willow" on repeat, a nature-inspired trellis ring like this one from Brilliant Earth is right up your alley. What we love most is that you can customize the accent stones on this Evermore-inspired engagement ring. Select diamonds for more of a classic look, or go all in with emerald gems for a true efflorescent engagement ring.

Blanca Monrós Gómez Champagne Diamond Solitaire Ring

Photo: Catbird

Champagne problems? More like champagne diamonds. Fans love belting this Evermore song on the Eras Tour—and although it includes symbolism about a broken engagement, we couldn't help but get inspired by its bubby imagery. After all, who could say no to a champagne-colored diamond? This off-white center stone is cradled between two smaller champagne diamonds, all held together with a pavé diamond band.

Mejuri Diamond Eternity Band

Photo: Mejuri

The tone of Evermore is much more mellow and subdued compared to Taylor Swift's other pop-heavy discography. If that sounds like your partner's sense of style, they might prefer an engagement band rather than an engagement ring. We love this simple diamond eternity stacker from Mejuri, which is made with recycled 14k solid gold.

Midnights

The synth-pop sounds of Taylor Swift's tenth studio album are best represented by rich, decadent gemstones. (This is the album that gave us "Bejeweled," after all.) With so much inspiration to work with, here are just a few Midnights-inspired engagement rings.

Wwake Sapphire Mason Ring

Photo: Catbird

Once upon a time, the planets and the fates and all the stars aligned—and they brought you *this* celestial engagement ring. We're starry-eyed over the emerald-cut blue sapphire center stone, which looks like the sky at dusk. It's surrounded by an ethereal cluster of round- and baguette-cut side stones arranged to look like constellations. Take our word and don't waste one more second before buying this engagement ring for your Midnights-loving S.O. They'll think you're a mastermind for finding the perfect ring.

Melanie Casey Clear Water Ring

Best believe you'll be bejeweled with this Taylor Swift-inspired engagement ring. Reminiscent of the song's flashy, colorful music video, this cluster of aquamarine, sapphire, tanzanite and diamond stones is a sight to behold. When this ring sits on your love's hand, there's no doubt they'll always make the whole place shimmer.

Kinn Solis Ribbed Ring Emerald Diamond

Photo: Kinn Studio

While we know Midnights as a pop album, its album art has a vintage, 1970s-inspired feel. If that aesthetic spoke to you (or your S.O.), allow us to introduce you to Kinn Studio's Solis ribbed ring. The retro vibe of this thick band gives off a cool mid-century modern vibe, while the emerald-cut center stone pops against the ridged setting.

The Tortured Poets Department

We're here to deliver a message straight from The Tortured Poets Department. As your chairperson, we feel particularly equipped to bring you the best Taylor Swift-inspired engagement rings for this literary, dark academia-esque era.

Anna Sheffield Bea Arrow Ring

Photo: Anna Sheffield

Symbolism aside, you can't tell us this ring isn't a near-perfect dupe for the album cover of The Tortured Poets Department. A milky gray moonstone sits between two clusters of twinkling round diamonds in the shape of an arrow. Who are we to fight the alchemy? This ring is the perfect pick for your TTPD-obsessed lover, so don't spend a fortnight deliberating—snag this proposal piece ASAP.

Catbird Fairy Light Curved Demi-Pavé Black Diamond Ring

Photo: Catbird

Have you ever seen a photo of an albatross IRL? The bird, which inspired a song on the TTPD anthology tracks, has a white body with black wings—and this stacking band from Catbird has the same energy. While not necessarily an engagement ring, we love the idea of pairing your main engagement ring with this stacking jacket for a pop of color (and as a nod to the Grammy-winning songstress).

Charles & Colvard Cushion Claw Prong Trillion Three-Stone Engagement Ring

Photo: Charles & Colvard

Mark our words: Your fiancé will be down bad for a ring as stunning as this. (In a good way, of course!) Since The Tortured Poets Department is the latest Taylor Swift era, it's only fair for us to pair it with one of the latest engagement ring trends. We've seen a rise in three-stone engagement rings because, let's be real—sometimes, more is more. In this lab-grown style, a pillowy cushion-cut center stone is flanked by sparkly trillion-cut side stones. Together, the gems create a look that's oh-so bright…dazzling.
