Memories (And Rings) Are A Girl's Best Friend


I think right hand rings are extremely important for single and taken women alike. I personally wear a diamond ring on my right hand that was passed down to me from my mother and a light blue topaz ring on my left hand that my great-grandmother purchased in Greece as my mother's high school graduation present. I love wearing beautiful stones on my hands for two reasons: one, hands, like shoes, reveal a person's personality and secondly, I think it is really important to wear something beautiful that makes you smile. These rings are of course better when they are accompanied by a story. Whenever I look at my light blue topaz ring I think of my great-grandmother. She was a strong, intelligent and charming woman who was born in 1901. She learned how to drive a car before women were expected to do so, and also attended college. She made her husband chase after her for years before she finally agreed to marry him. He wrote her love letters addressed to his "beautiful blue eyed darling" and my great-grandmother would insist that he had the wrong girl because she did not have blue eyes (which was a lie). The next time you're on a trip pick up a piece of jewelry and make sure to include a story with it before you give it away. If you're not traveling anytime soon grab your mother/sister/daughter/best friend and treat yourself to a day without any responsibilities that you will remember forever. You can end it with a shopping spree at Saks where you can find these beautiful rings. It's the memory, not the place, that counts.Stephen Dweck Bronze Flower Ring, $236.90, saksfifthavenue.com; Jude Frances Small Princess Ring, $1,250.00, saksfifthavenue.com; Julie Sandlau Black Onyx Ring, $245.00, saksfifthavenue.com.
