Laura Brown is one of our favorite fashion insiders to follow on Instagram (and that's saying a lot). Brown, who was born in Australia, was appointed to editor-and-chief of InStyle in 2016, after 11 years at Harper's Bazaar. Brown's refreshingly authentic Instagram feed boasts 250k followers. It's littered with images of Brown's casual yet trendy style, behind-the-scenes glimpses of InStyle shoots, memes, and cameos by a slew of Brown's celebrity pals. But on to that engagement ring...

Brown's boyfriend, comedian and writer Brandon Borror-Chappell, proposed to her over the holidays in Australia with one of the most stunning engagement rings we've ever seen. The ring is by Aussie jewelry designer Canturi, whose designs are "inspired by art and geometry". Brown's ring is called the Stella, and it features a huge round diamond surrounded by, yes, geometric-shaped diamonds that jut out to create a very eye-catching, modern effect. Might this ultra-modern style be a new engagement-ring trend for 2019?

Brown's Instagram posts were filled with comments about the ring, so she obliged with a close-up look at it. Keep scrolling to see it for yourself, along with more of Brown's and Canturi's most double-tap-worthy Instagrams.
