Three-stone rocks have been all the rage this year, mainly thanks to a bride going by the name of Meghan Markle.

But according to jeweller James Allen, that's all going to change over the next 12 months.

James has revealed to that there are three types of rock he thinks we'll be seeing a lot more of on ladies' left hands.

Double bands

This is the ideal style for a woman who wants a statement ring.

We mean, why have one band when you can have two?

Any type of stone will fit within the double band, so it's an easy trend to make your own.

Baguette

Baguette diamonds are step-cut and rectangular in shape, giving exceptional clarity.

They date back to the Art Deco era, when the use of clean lines and geometric forms were the height of fashion.

This makes them perfect for a bride-to-be looking for a piece with vintage appeal.

East/West

If you're after a slightly more quirky ring, the east/west style may be for you.

It involves the jewel sitting horizontally on the band, rather than vertically.

The best thing about it? You can easily alter the placement down the line if you decide you want something more traditional.

Would you be tempted by any of these trends? We're not going to lie, we quite fancy all three.
