After news hit that Jessica Simpson’s engagement ring (photo above) carried a stunning ruby stone, consumers reportedly responded. Jessica Simpson’s engagement ring from Eric Johnson features a large set ruby in the center. Now retailers report a spike in sales of engagement rings with ruby stones.
Jessica and Eric’s engagement came just a week after Jessica’s former husband Nick Lachey announced his own engagement to longtime girlfriend, Vanessa Minnillo. However, Jessica recently said that she is “extremely, extremely happy for him.”
Vanessa Minnillo’s ring, on the other hand, is a platinum Bader & Garrin ring with a center asscher-cut diamond flanked by trapezoid diamonds. It’s a little flashy though, maybe Simpson is tired of all that glittery junk and was ready for something a little more tasteful?
