5 Tips for Accessorizing With Rings

You’ve chosen your outfit, bought your makeup, and got the perfect pair of heels to go with it. Now what? Accessorizing! Jewelry can transform your outfit and give you an edge, but choosing the right pieces can be tough. It’s easy to resort back to your everyday jewelry like your custom necklace and rings, but thinking outside of the box can freshen up your look.

Below, we’ve put together five tips to help you accessorize with rings…

Go minimal for an everyday look

Whether you’re meeting up with friends at the mall for a coffee or you’re headed into work, you can’t go wrong with some minimalistic rings for an easy-going look. Add in a matching bracelet to complete the look, and you’re sorted. Thin ring bands are great for giving you a confident, bohemian-esque look to suit every occasion - and they look good with any outfit.

Consider a bold statement ring

Depending on the occasion and your outfit, you might want to wear a big ring to top off your look. Some rings serve as great conversation pieces and help you attract compliments from friends and family, but they must be styled properly. Don’t wear a statement ring if you’re wearing a “busy” outfit, and be clear on where you draw the line. For example, you’re better off only putting a statement ring on one finger rather than both for an uncomplicated and sleek design. If you can’t find the confidence for a large ring, start off with something smaller.

Tell a story with your rings

Whether you’re married, dating, or single, rings can help you tell a story. The Claddagh ring is a great example of that, a traditional Irish ring that’s designed to represent love, loyalty, and friendship. The idea is that the heart shows your love for your partner, family, friends, or country, the hand represents friendship and relationships, and the crown represents your loyalty to your loved ones. It’s both traditional and uber-modern, and one for your collection.

Don’t be afraid of stacking

Another way to wear rings is to stack them. Women are increasingly turning to stacked rings because it’s stylish and out of the ordinary, allowing you to show off your personality through colors and styles, collecting rings as you go. Naturally, if you’re going to stack rings, then you’re best not to wear anything too bold or large - instead, opt for smaller, delicate rings that complement one another. This is an eye-catching technique that’s great for the summer.

Let your wedding ring shine

We’ve already talked about the importance of choosing a diamond wedding ring, but we thought it was worth mentioning the fact that wedding rings should stand alone. Sure, you can add your engagement band to the same finger, but other than that, you should let that hand be as it is, telling the world that you’re married. Use your other hand to accessorize with fashion rings, and you’ll never have to fend off unwanted attention from men again!
