Cocktail Ring Bling

The holidays put me in the mood to go bold or go home.  I don't know what it is about those four weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas, but I find myself digging for the glitziest things I own.  This year I was on a mission to find a stunning cocktail ring.  Something that could rival the bright lights of the big city.  Here are a few that make me drool.  Santa, I've been awfully good this year (wink)!


The Chartres Ring from the Julie collection instantly stole my heart with its smattering of blue topaz and iolite colored glass all wrapped up in gold trim.  As a bonus, I can easily see it paired with a caftan and white pants for a summer cocktail party, making it too versatile not to buy!

Kate Spade knows how to bring the bling to the party.  I had trouble picking just one delicious bauble but landed on this stunning vision of verdure.

For something truly unique, feast your eyes on this elegant statement piece by KEP Designs.  It artfully combines a mother of pearl flower with accents of sapphires and diamond points.  If red isn't your color, fear not because it also comes in equally stunning sapphire and emerald versions.

The closest I'll likely get to owning a Canary diamond may just be this Citrine ring from Periwinkle.  I love its bold rectangular shape which screams "shrinking violets need not apply".  Raise your right hands ladies.
