One Little Thing, A Ring (I Don't Mean On the Phone)



Photobucket

As a pianist, I'm very limited as to what rings I can wear. Well, at least what rings I can wear while I'm being a pianist. Anything to big or unwieldy makes it impossible for me to play even Chopsticks (which I can play quite well, actually)

However, my newest finds have made me consider switching careers. Aren't these rings by Alidra Alic beyond amazing?

I've also found plenty in a bit more realistic size:

Fourth from Katalins

P.S. Feel free to follow me! I promise only ever to lead you to bright, sunny places!

  10. Oooh I adore the copper bird ring. I tend to find large rings restrict me doing every day things, but I think it's because I've never got used to wearing them!

  18. I can relate to your situation regarding a lack of rings that you can wear (but for different reasons, for me it's because I'm really allergic to nickel and have to avoid most costume jewelry made of metal for this reason). I'm delighted to know you've found that work for you though, honey!

    Wishing you a blissful Friday & weekend ahead!

  19. Ooh, all of these are beautiful! I wonder how one goes about wearing that giant ring by Alidra Alic?? Ha, it looks like it would always be trying to topple over!!

  20. I have been so obsessed with big, statement rings lately. These are gorgeous! I especially love the green on the top left and how geometric it is.

  21. They are all so very nice. I don't wear rings either, because they tend to bother my hand and I swell all up - ugh! I think my favorite is the birdie ring. Have a nice weekend dear.
