Put a Ring On It.

I've always had a thing for cocktail rings. Because, really: there's nothing better than a big, fat, sparkly rock on your hand. Right? {Well, maybe a nice hot stone massage...but you get the point.} They're the perfect way to make any outfit look instantly glam and pulled-together. Statement jewelry at it's finest. Case in point: Angelina Jolie at the Oscars last week. I can't stop daydreaming about her exquisite jewelry.

I also heart vintage jewelry. The mystery. The romance. Where has it been? What stories could it tell? There's no better way to combine two of my jewelry loves than with vintage cocktail rings. Here are just a few of my favorites from Etsy:


This one is absolute, sparkly perfection.


A definite showstopper, without being predictable.

When it comes to cocktail rings there's only one rule: Go big, or go home.

Different and perfect for everyday.

More green. Can you blame me?

I hope your day is as beautiful as these rings!

I LOVED Angelina Jolie's jewels--so gorgeous and love the effect they had on people. I am partial to big rings so love this.
