put a ring on it




A few chunky rings I've been wearing on high rotation lately. From top: 1. made with a clay cabochon that my best friend gave me, 2. hand me down from another friend, 3. made with a button I thrifted. I can't seem to remember when was the last time I actually bought a ring.
I like the idea of piling lots of fun rings on one hand, but every time I do, I end up taking 1 or 2 off. It's like that thing that Coco Chanel said about taking off the last piece of accessory you put on - or something along those lines. Less is more.

    Those are cute. But nowadays I think it's ok to put extra rings, I love the idea!

    I love the rings. And you've got such pretty hands. I like the idea of the design of the background and the simplicity of just looking at a ring on a hand. I almost thought I was looking in a fashion mag!

    Your rings are super cute, Anna! I used to wear chunky rings all the time a few years ago, but then stopped for one reason or another. Within the last month I've purchased two new ones and they make me pretty happy :)
