If a piece of jewelry is born out of a rebellion, it would be the cocktail ring. Cocktail rings often symbolize a woman’s free spirit and financial independence. Unlike wedding or engagement rings traditionally on the left hand, these flashy rings are often seen on the right hand to make a statement. These are often purchases by women for their pleasure.
Even if you prefer the minimalist route, these rings are perfect for days when you want to keep your earlobes and neck bare. On the red carpet, celebrities have begun to opt out complete suites of matching jewelry, highlighting their look with a couple of eye-catching pieces. Dramatic cocktail rings are a popular choice.
What Are Cocktail Rings?
You’ve seen them - unique, bold, and eye-catching!
Cocktail rings or Statement Rings are generally larger than fashion rings. They usually showcase a diamond, a large gem, or a metal motif. They help you express your style and personality.
When Can One Wear A Cocktail Ring?
Today, there are no rules for wearing a cocktail ring. You can wear the ring on any hand or any finger, one or many at a time.
There is a statement ring for every occasion -
- A minimalist for the office
- The most prominent, most glamorous rings for formal events
- A playful one for casual occasions with friends
But we advise you to save it for appropriate occasions, like a cocktail party or gala event. Taking to their striking and extraordinary look, they are less suitable for everyday wear as this will be the showpiece of your attire. A black little dress or gown is ideal for a party and sets the stage perfectly for your striking colored ring.
Wearing one ring….. if you want your cocktail ring to catch attention, then let it play a starring role. You can achieve this by keeping the other added jewelry understated.
