Eva Longoria’s Non-Traditional Engagement Ring Makes Us Swoon!

Fellow LoveIsland alums were quick to congratulate the professional boxer and former PrettyLittleThing creative director, showering the comments with their support.

Love Island social ambassador and fan favorite Maura Higgins wrote, “BALLING AGAIN!!!!!!!!! ILYSM 🤍🤍🤍 CONGRATULATIONS YOU TWO 🥹,” while the show's host Maya Jama commented, “WE LOVE TO SEE IT! 😍😍😍❤️ congratulations you cuteys.” Amber Gill, who won Molly-Mae and Tommy’s season, wrote, “Congrats you two babes 🥹🥹 always the cutest videos.”

As we expected, Molly-Mae’s ring is a diamond-encrusted masterpiece with a massive center stone. With a rumored price tag of £1 million, the ring is fitting for the former Islander (who also happens to be the first Islander to break five million Instagram followers), especially since Tommy just won an estimated £3.7 million in a boxing match against Youtuber Jake Paul.

That’s not all the major news from the couple, though. The family of three will join the rest of the Fury clan in a new Netflix show, At Home With the Furys. The series will follow Tommy and his older brother, world-renowned professional boxer Tyson Fury, as Tyson enters his second retirement. Tyson is a father to six children – three girls and three boys – all of whom he shares with his wife, Paris.

The show appears to give fans more of an insight into the Furys' lives behind closed doors, including what Molly-Mae and Tommy are up to following their last TV debut on Love Island four years ago.

Fans are already calling the show “the British Kardashians,” so needless to say everyone is looking forward to the series’ August 16 premiere.

Shane Co. Natural Diamond Ring ($2,000+)

This natural diamond engagement ring really brings the bling to any hand. You will definitely feel like a princess while it sits nicely on your ring finger!

Brilliant Earth Petite Twisted Vine Diamond Ring ($3,650)

The twisted detail on this engagement ring's band adds some eye-catching visual interest, and who wouldn't want more diamonds to wear? This design is available in a white, yellow, or rose gold metal for the band so you can get the ring finish you've always dreamed of.

KazkaJewelry Dainty 14k Ring ($38+, was $63+)

Blue Nile Petite Solitaire Ring ($490+)

For the more minimalist bride, this engagement ring style still delivers elegance, even in its simplicity. The square-shaped diamond is the star of the show here, and is not to be missed when worn.

A Gilded Leaf Bridal Rose Cushion Morganite Ring ($900)

If you just need some color in your life at all times, look beyond the traditional white (or colorless) diamond and lean toward colored gemstones. This square wedding ring flaunts a morganite gemstone, which has a pink tint to it.

WWAKE Small Nestled Princess Cut Ring ($1,745)

Though this beautiful ring houses a smaller gemstone, the design really emphasizes its beauty. The geometric components add a unique touch to the minimal band, and placing the diamond at an angle gives it an asymmetrical detail. Sometimes less really is more.

Sarah O Jewelry Antique Square Moissanite Side Stones Ring ($2,215)

A bigger square-shaped Moissanite stone is hugged oh-so nicely by two smaller ones on this ring design. Extremely similar to diamond, Moissanite stones still bring the shine.

Again, a less traditional design can really shine if it's the right style for you. This signet ring is an artsy take on a colorful square-shaped stone that will look great on the left hand.

Olive Ave Jewelry Asher Ring ($720)

This simple yet elegant ring's square stone is set further up from the band, really emphasizing its shine. The design still remains very sleek, and would look wonderful as an engagement or wedding band style.

Artemer Step Cut Engagement Ring with Eight Square Diamonds ($8,800)

Maybe one diamond is just not enough! Sometimes a girl has to have eight, and we can't blame her. Bring multiple square diamonds together for a ring design that's reminiscent of a signet, all while representing something extremely special.

Tiffany & Co. Tiffany True Ring

If you really want to splurge, this Tiffany & Co. ring is what wedding dreams are made of. It's traditional in its design but still stands out on the finger. And of course, it's crafted with a diamond band that really boosts the sparkle.

Marli New York Rock Square Ring ($1,600)

We love that the band on this ring features scalloped edges. It's a unique touch to the overall shape, and the bold square diamond housed within even more sparkles adds an elegant flair!

Mogga Emerald Blue & Green Teal Sapphire Solitaire Ring ($2,150)

Moving away from a diamond and into a colored stone could be a great way to really embrace your own personal style instead of just opting for a traditional white ring. For the bride that wants some uniqueness and color, this sapphire stone is the one, and it pairs so well with the diamond-set band.

Kay Princess & Round 10K Two-Tone Gold Engagement Ring ($700, was $1000)

A curved band adds an unexpected detail to the ring finger, making this ring design unlike any other. With notes of traditional styles, from the diamond band, to the bright, square-shaped center diamond, this square wedding ring is for the bride that desires a bolder look. Plus, since it's two-tone you can mix and match your jewelry.

Hanna Marie Gropper Fifteen Super Tiny Diamonds Ring ($956)

To be worn alone or as a wedding band, this tiny diamonds design is so feminine and gentle. It still holds a show-stopping sparkle, and will remind you of your love no matter how you choose to wear it!

When's the best time to do holiday shopping?

The best time to do holiday shopping really all depends on your personal shopping goals. Do you want to get a jump on items you know will sell out soon? Do you want to save the most money possible? Do you want to focus on handmade, personalized gifts? These factors will undoubtedly influence your holiday shopping schedule.

Shopping early can be advantageous for all of the aforementioned goals. A lot of retailers start promoting their holiday products early on, giving you ample time to snatch up that limited-time lip kit or fancy water bottle you’ve been eyeing way before the holidays.

Plus, some of the best deals for holiday shopping happen ahead of Black Friday and Cyber Monday – in 2023, Experian observed a surge in early spending in October, thanks to early discounts, a trend likely to continue in 2024.

Finally, shopping early can be especially helpful if your plan is to focus on handmade or personalized gifts, giving the artisan you buy from (or yourself, if you’re DIY-ing your gifts) plenty of time to craft the item with love and care.

Gallup reported in 2023 that one in four shoppers start shopping as early as September, a trend likely to continue in 2024 – so you might already be embarking on your shopping spree!

If right now is just still too darn early for you to start holiday shopping, Black Friday and Cyber Monday are some of the best times to shop since so many retailers offer their largest discounts of the entire year. Plus, the late November-early December timeline can feel a bit more appropriate for the gifting season opposed to late October-early November, when everyone’s still recovering from Halloween.

The only thing to consider during this time is the shipping timelines for the items you purchase – but most retailers will typically advise their specific shipping schedules, so you don’t risk your goodies arriving late.

Where should I shop for gifts?

You have three main options when it comes to where to shop for holiday gifts: online, in-store, and via our amazing gift guides. Of course, each method has its advantages and disadvantages.

Shopping in-store offers a tangible experience: the opportunity to hold specific items in your hands and gauge exactly what they’ll be like when you give them as a gift. The pitfall with shopping in-person is that it typically requires a commute and journeys through potentially very busy malls and shopping strips, which can add to the already-stressful holiday experience.

In-store shopping can be more physically exhausting, but it’s all about preference! Sometimes strolling through the stores that get all dolled up for Christmas is the best part of the season.

Per Google, 65% of those planning to shop for the holidays say they will shop online more. Shopping for gifts online can be super helpful since you can centralize your findings in your browser’s bookmark tab or via virtual cart(s). Plus, shopping online can pose more opportunities for saving some money: lots of retailers typically offer discount codes for online users, especially if you sign up for their digital marketing channels (like email and text) and make a purchase.

Shopping online isn’t just shopping, either. The internet can be a stellar research tool to help you vet whether certain products are worth it, where they can be bought, and when they’ll be available. In fact, Google reported that more than half of U.S. holiday shoppers who went into a store last year say they looked up product reviews online and/or located an item in-store by checking it online.

Last but not least, scrolling gift guides has to be our favorite place to shop for gifts – and not just because we write and publish them.

At their very core, gift guides help streamline the holiday shopping process, alleviating the stress that bubbles up when you’re wondering what the heck to shop for in the first place. Our gift guides are backed by real people, real experiences, and real opinions from our editorial team. We only promote products that we really love and believe in, oftentimes ones we’ve tested and reviewed ourselves.

We have gift guides for just about everyone on your list, with more on the way! Check ‘em out:

• Gifts for Him
• Gifts for Her
• Gifts for Foodies
• DIY + Handmade Gifts

What are the best kinds of gifts to give?

The best kinds of gifts to give are thoughtful gifts that consider the giftee’s interests, wants, and needs. These gifts can be sentimental, practical, or both simultaneously. What matters most in a gift is that it’ll be meaningful to them past just the holiday season, whether it’s helping them get through daily tasks, reminding them of a memorable trip or event, or giving them small doses of joy.

“Shoppers are increasingly looking for personalized and unique gifts that reflect the recipient's personality and interests,” says Mia Anderson, Owner of ChicSew. “With the rise of online shopping, many consumers are opting for curated gift boxes or experiences that add a special touch.”

Gift boxes, personalized items, books of interest, self-care goodies, and even gift cards can all be thoughtful gifts depending on the recipient. If you have no clue what your giftee is into, it’s not a bad idea to ask them what they want the most!

“My idea of a great gift is something that is in tandem with the recipient's interest and offers something new to the person, be it learning a new skill, enjoying a calming activity, or simply spending quality time with the family,” says Alfred Christ, Sales Manager & Marketer at Robotime. “This season, we encourage shoppers to shift their focus on quality and the memories their gifts will create and not just merely material aspects.”
