As the holiday season approaches, many grooms will be getting ready to pop the question and celebrate their engagement with family and friends. Shopping for an engagement ring has never been easier, now that the Modern Bride Collection is available online and at select JCPenney stores. Grooms can start by learning everything they need to know in a comprehensive Diamond Buying Guide, including the 4 Cs (cut, color, clarity and carat), shapes and settings. They can also learn about precious metals and the shades of gold available (white, yellow and rose). Finally (and most importantly!), a groom can browse an impressive selection of styles at a wide range of prices or even design a ring by choosing a diamond, shape, and setting.

New for this season, JCPenney has introduced  the Modern Bride Signature Collection featuring 20 upscale ring designs. Each has a center diamond, ranging in size from 1/5 to 3/4 carats, with diamond-encrusted shanks and frames for spectacular sparkle. Found on the inside of each design is a very special symbol of everlasting love: two interlocking infinity symbols embrace a color-enhanced blue diamond. The new collection (pictured here) ranges from $3,100 to $13,300 and includes modern, traditional and vintage-inspired settings.
