Glittering floral rings for fall & winter parties - on a budget!

The winter party season is coming up right away - and that means we need jewelry!

Is that a rabbit ring?

No it’s a Labbit ring!

Labbits are part of Tarina Tarantino’s “Kidrobot”collection, a collaboration with Frank Kozik.  The rings are a strictly limited edition - and they’re sold blind, so you don’t know what kind you might get!

wearing live jewelry?

Icelandic designer Hafsteinn Juliusson has created a line of art jewelry that carries a tiny piece of live, growing moss:

It was created as a gallery installation, so I’m not sure if there are any plans to market the rings - but I think they’re quite lovely… if not entirely practical :-)
But who says jewelry has […]

pretty things on sale at auto

Okay, so I’m a sucker for sales - but sales on lovely jewelry like this sterling silver “Blooming Rose” ring by St Kilda?

Swoon.
The only downside is that they’re already sold out of the gold version…  It’s worth checking out Auto’s entire sale section - they’ve got some gorgeous stuff :-)

can you wear rings with moving parts?

I really like the look of Dior’s tarnish gold “Antiquated” ring, but I’ve never worn a ring with little hanging baubles like it before:

I’d love to hear from you guys - have you ever worn a ring with it’s own charms before?
Do they get caught on things?
Are they noisy?
Or is it too fabulous to resist […]
