Don't ask me how I got started on cocktail rings. Actually, now that I think about it, I was busy packing our luggage for the move and as I sorted through my jewelry I realized I had a cocktail ring that I wanted to wear to work. The thing about cocktail rings? Some are just too darn big and obnoxious looking. I like the middle-of-the-road rings that are unobtrusive with a presence, if that makes sense.
Oh how I want to buy one of each! Look at these beauties from
Banana Republic:
As I rationalized the price {in the neighborhood of $50 without shipping} I couldn't help but think that $50 sure seems steep when you consider that this isn't the kind of ring you wear all the time. It's more like a statement piece, I suppose. Although, knowing me, I'd probably wear that silver pave ring every day.
So just for kicks I looked at
Overstock.com and found this amazing ring for $22.99. Not bad!
And then I saw this and my jaw dropped...
This could be yours for the low, low price of $4,999.99!
Those Banana Republic rings suddenly seem reasonably priced. Hmmm.

I like the BR ones - but $50 is pricey for occasional rings!
This is your *I-can-help-you-justify-anything* friend speaking... I think you should treat yourself to one of those rings! Make it a *I-just-moved-cross-country-and-started-a-new-chapter-of-my-life* ring. You will be able to pull it out of your jewelry box years from now and remember this exciting time in your life! (You're welcome. Yes, I CAN justify any shopping endeavor) :)
