2011 has not just been a year filled with special controversies in the world of entertainment but also a lot of luxurious engagement rings which were given to the best lady celebrities in the industry.

Such costly rings have really raised the standard of celebrities and have set trends for such timeless blings. Here we cover the royal sapphire ring of Kate Middleton and even down to the antique style classic ring of Reese Witherspoon.

They just keep getting better and more pricier each and every time. Check out the top celebrity engagement rings of 2011:

Kate Middleton

The engagement ring of the Duchess of Cambridge is the showstopper of the entire year. Nothing can compete with that 18-carat blue sapphire ring, considering that it was also worn by the late mother of her husband, Princess D. It is reported to have a cost of £28,000 when Princess Diana chose it from a Garrard catalogue.

Kim Kardashian

This is the most expensive of all the engagement blings this year with a total cost of about $2 million dollars. The Lorraine Shwartz ring that Kris Humphries gave his then wife has a 16.5 emerald centre stone with a couple of trapezoids at two carats. This topped off the engagement ring that her sister Khloe received from her own fiancé Lamar Odom.

Reese Witherspoon

Love is definitely sweeter the second time around for this 'Legally Blonde' actress who said yes to Jim Toth when he gave him an Ashoka Diamond at 4-carat set on a band of combined platinum and diamond. Jim is a Hollywood agent who tied the knot with Reese last March 26, 2011.

Natalie Portman

This lucky star of 2011 received an engagement ring as unique and elegant as her. Benjamin Millepied, her choreographer for the movie 'Black Swan' gave her a round diamond ring that is of vintage style and worth $35,000. Talk about so much luck for Portman this 2011.
