Is a conventional diamond too boring for you? If you enjoy the darker things in life, a gothic-inspired engagement ring may be perfect for you.
You don’t have to go crazy to incorporate this theme. Swop out your normal diamond for a black or salt-and-pepper one, or opt for a black platinum band for a unique look. If you want to go even bolder, you could have skulls built into your ring to hold up your diamond.
Here are some unique looks to inspire you:

Celebs, they’re just like us. You would think being rich and famous would make dating slightly easier, but some still need some extra help. Luckily, they’ve got great…
Fred Paul and Florence Harvey’s love story ignited 68 years ago when they were just teenagers in Wandsworth, a small town in Canada.
They were inseparable, spending every moment they could wrapped up in each other’s company. Every night, Paul would flicker his porch light to say good night to Harvey, who lived across the bay.
“She was my first love. My first girlfriend and my first true love,” Paul (84) told CNN.
After a two year relationship, the pair separated and ended up marrying other people and started their own families. But fate has a way of intervening. In 2017, Harvey’s husband died of cancer and in 2019, Paul’s wife died. While grieving the loss of their loves, they rekindled their old flame.
Upon hearing the news his wife had passed, Harvey reached out to Paul to comfort him. One phone call became two, which turned into daily calls that would last for hours.
“I never thought it would go past that,” Harvey, 81, said. “But we went from talking once a week, to twice, to three times, to every day for hours. We had really reconnected even though we hadn’t seen each other in all those years. I knew this was it.”
Months later, the pair reunited in person and within three days, had decided to get married. They exchanged vows on August 8, 2020 in front of close family and friends.
“You were the first young man to walk me home in my teens,” Harvey told Paul during the ceremony. “I guess you’ll be the last man to walk me home.”
The couple now plan to relive their first chapters of love by visiting their childhood town where it all began.

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the bathrobe has become the ultimate fashion statement. Comfy and cosy, it’s easy to see why people would want to wear it everywhere. One place you wouldn’t expect to see a robe, however, is at a wedding.
Ever the trendsetter, musician Harry Styles donned a bathrobe to the wedding of his agent Jeff Azoff in Montecito, California on January 4. He started the day off with a formal black suit but changed into the bathrobe to pose for pictures with the newlyweds.
