All About Fashion Rings

Rings are special pieces of jewelry that can easily enhance one’s beauty by calling attention to the parts of our body we use the most: our hands. Yet, there are so many different types of rings and styles that choosing the perfect one may seem like an overwhelming task. 

But no worries, this guide will touch on the subject of the different types of fashion rings and will also teach you the essentials of how to wear them in a bold and confident way. So get ready to dive into this accessories' universe once and for all, and let CD Peacock walk you through that process.

Is there a right way to wear a fashion ring?

Where do we start? First, by understanding that fashion rings are meant to be worn for purely fashion purposes. That means that they are able to compose specific looks and can upgrade any outfit to looking amazing. Likewise, the options in terms of the different ways to wear them are many.

So how do we do it right and confidently? A few aspects should be considered when it comes to wearing fashion rings. The first is: remember, they’re meant to be part of an overall look and not meant to get all the attention off your outfit, so balance is important here for that matter.

WHAT IS THE BEST FASHION RING MATERIAL TO INVEST IN?

What is the best fashion ring material to invest in?

The answer to this question is entirely up to you. Best would be what best suits your style, your personality and your overall fashion taste. There is an overall rule of thumb though, which is to avoid shiny materials if you’re going for a more traditional basic look to avoid drawing all the attention to your hands.

Another important aspect is to make sure the fashion ring matches the rest of your outfit, as well as your other accessories, such as any bracelets, necklaces, belts and watches you may be wearing along with it. If you're wearing a yellow gold watch, it may not be such a great idea to pair it with a silver fashion ring.

Does wearing a fashion ring on specific fingers mean anything?

You can wear a fashion ring on whichever finger you choose to do so, but there's some overall meaning attributed to specific fingers that you might wanna know about before you do so. Besides, it’s important to know if you want to send a specific message by wearing rings on specific fingers.

For instance, the left ring finger symbolizes marriage, so if you’re unmarried but love wearing a ring on that finger but don’t want people to think that you are married, you might want to consider wearing it on the right hand instead. The same goes for the pinky finger: remember, it’s usually a token of affiliation.
