One of the last time I was here, I talked about how I like to waste money on makeup I usu­ally won’t wear. Well I have the same strange rela­tion­ship with rings. My knuck­les are slightly larger than my fin­gers which means I have to get rings that fit my knuckle not my finger.

In the store, I’m in love with the ring. I can’t stop look­ing at it sparkle in the store light­ing. In the real world, it becomes the most annoy­ing con­trap­tion that a per­son could wrap around her fin­ger. Because the ring is slightly too big for my fin­ger, it spend the entire day on my fin­ger mov­ing. I’m pretty sure that after I take the ring off, I have some type of ring burn from the con­stant friction.

I decided to buy ring spac­ers. It seemed like a bril­liant idea. I could remove the spac­ers when I needed to take the ring on and off. Then the spac­ers would keep the ring from twirling around my fin­ger all day. And it worked, but I then real­ized I don’t like to wear rings on my fin­ger. Whoomp Whoomp.

Despite my rev­e­la­tion, I decided to try a stretchy ring. It didn’t really do it for me.

Not being one to give up, I picked up these two rings last week at Tar­get and I’m in love. There were many to pick from but I knew the sil­ver arrow ring would be mines. The first thing that drew me to it was the size of the ring. I love how dra­matic the knuckle rings look on the fin­ger. Then the arrow etched void caught my atten­tion. The metal has an antique feel to it which makes it per­fect for dress­ing up a look with­out mak­ing it too over the top.

I was hes­i­tant about buy­ing this ring. It’s a stack­able ring set that includes 5 rings that vary in size and design. I loved the com­bi­na­tion of styles and decided to try it. Turns out, I love them. You can wear them sep­a­rately if you like, but I enjoy wear­ing them all together. Plus, with them stacked I can avoid the whole ring burn thing.

I keep them on my index fin­ger because I think it’s the only fin­ger that’s ring tol­er­ant. Any other fin­ger is a prob­lem. I don’t mind buy­ing rings that I can only wear on my index fin­ger. For now that will be my only ring fin­ger. Hmm, I won­der if I can wear my future engage­ment ring on my index finger?
