So, normally I know that I'm all about trying to help you look fabulous on a budget.  I don't often talk about rings that are more than $100, unless they are exceptionally beautiful.  But, you never know who might be reading, right?  I mean, what if some bored countess was reading my blog and she was looking for a great deal on something incredibly lavish?  Well, I don't want to let her down, right?  Nope.

So, here ya go, Countess!  This platinum and gold cocktail ring features a brown/purple/pink radiant cut diamond sided by two yellow cushion cut diamonds.   And, it's a size 6, so it's perfect for you!  And, at $135,600 you won't even have to sell one of your smaller islands to afford it!  Huzzah!  400-year-old champagne for everyone!

Platinum and 18k Yellow Gold Fancy Brown-Purple-Pink Radiant Cut Diamond Ring with Yellow Cushion Cut Diamond Side Stones (GIA Certified 1.15 ct center, 3.28 cttw), Size 6 List Price: $149,160.00 Sale Price: $135,600.00 You save: $13,560.00 (9%)   Eligible for free shipping! Availability: Temporarily out of stock. Order now and we'll deliver when available. We'll e-mail you with an estimated delivery date as soon as we have more information.

My favorite part about this one is the "Free Shipping!".  Heh.  I don't think the Princess of Latvia cares much about the cost of shipping when she just shelled out $135k for the world's most fantastic cocktail ring.... that she's only going to wear one night.

You know how the e-mail starts, right?  "We noticed that people looking for blah might also be interested in bleh."  It's the standard nearly-daily e-mail you get from Amazon telling you about new stuff that you can't live without.  Well, in my case, with regards to jewelry, it's almost the equivalent of offering free heroin to a recovering addict.  Heck yes I'm interested!  It's jewelry, isn't it?!  So, today Amazon was telling me about Trina Turk jewelry and I jumped on it so quick that I nearly spilled my morning coffee (Irish, of course).

I'm digging this line!  It reminds of something your grandmother might where while on vacation in Florida.  Only, back when she was wild and crazy.  You know, wearing outrageous sunglasses and drinking from a tiny flask before going out for a night of dancing and gambling with Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Junior.  I guess what I'm saying is that it feels vintage and hip and I'm digging it!  Here, check some of the rings out.

So, I was inspired by @melange4d's great button rings last week so I went hunting around Amazon for something similar.  I mean, I actually wasn't expecting much, because it seems like more of a crafting sort of thing, but you never know, right?  Anyway, as you probably know, I have the attention span of a squirrel.  I start doing something and then if something shiny flies by I'm chasing it.  So, I'm sure it comes as no surprise to you that I got distracted about 2 minutes into my button ring search.  But, I think it was a good distraction.  This Sterling Silver and Marcasite Button Dome Ring is pretty cute!

In case you were wondering what Marcasite is, it's a sort of crystal that's related to Pyrite.  But, when folks describe gems in  jewelry as Marcasite, they actually mean Pyrite because Pyrite is really brittle.  Anyway, it has a really unique look.  Almost like a smoky quartz or something.  Here, take a peak:

I saw a picture of this cute little ring today and I just had to post it to my blog.  I had just watched the Hayao Miyazaki  movie, Ponyo, over the weekend and this ring seemed like something right out of that movie.  Or maybe one of his other great movies like Spirited Away or Totoro.  It's just adorable!

Also, it seems like it could either grant wishes or give you some sort of magical powers.  Heh... ok, maybe that's a little much, but it definitely has extra cuteness powers.  I guess I'm going to have to start looking at more jewelry from Eternal Sparkles.  If this ring is any indication, then they must have some really great stuff!

Today's ring adventure started out a little differently.  Usually I just wander around Amazon until something strikes my fancy and then it all goes from there.  Today, I woke up remembering Puzzle Rings.  See, growing up my best friend had a rough, world-traveling uncle.  To us he seemed like Indiana Jones or something.  He always had some sort of "tough guy" job like working on an oil rig or crewing a ship or fighting sharks.  (Ok, that last one might be an exaggeration).  As a result of all his travels, he had all sorts of neat little treasures that he bought along the way.

His puzzle ring was, to us, like some sort of other-worldly treasure.  I think his was made of 13 different pieces?  He would show it to us, but never let us touch it because he said it was so difficult to assemble the ring.  Of course we bugged him like crazy to just touch it a teensie bit.  Finally, he relented and, in under three seconds, we had somehow accidentally taken it apart.  I just remember watching as this beautiful jewelry treasure transformed into a bunch of tiny hoops right before our eyes.  Whoops.

Don't worry, he was able to get the ring back together.... several hours later.

Here I am again!  Bright-eyed, bushy-tailed and searching for some really fun and funky rings.  I am still on a big cocktail ring kick, so I started my search there.  I was finding some pretty things, but nothing was really jumping out at me.  Then I remembered that a girlfriend was telling me about Eve's Addiction.  I'm pretty sure that she said they had quite a few really stunning cocktail rings, so the hunt began.

It didn't take too long for me to turn up this really fun Black Panther Cocktail Ring.

Well, I started out looking for different variations on Two-Tone Rings.  When I did this I was actually envisioning writing a post about two-tone gold rings for men because I had seen some really handsome examples of that over the weekend.  But, I apparently have the attention span of a tiny squirrel because I lost focus immediately.  But, I'm glad that I did, though, because I found this pretty cute Stacked Patina Ring from Lucky Brand.

Well, sometimes you have to go with the flow, right?  Besides, for $35, this ring is pretty cute.

I'm worried though because I don't really own many stacked rings, so I'm a little nervous that this is gong to turn into a new addiction for me.  Ah well.  Bring it on!

Oh wow.  I can't decide if this is the most adorable thing in the world or the most ridiculous thing in the world.  Heh.  Maybe it's a little of both?  I really want to meet the Dad who is Gangsta enough to pull this off.  Actually, I guess this ring says three things about you.

1. You love your kid(s).
2. You dig being a Dad.
3. You are very familiar with the works of Eric B. and Rakim.

I mean, I guess I know guys who have shirts that say stuff like "Poppa" or maybe it spells DAD in Binary code (I hang out with some real nerds).  So, why not this ring for folks who are into hip hop culture?

Yup, I've decided.  It's adorable.

After focusing on inexpensive rings for the last few posts, I wanted to indulge my "sweet tooth" for some decadent jewelry.  But, and I'm blaming this on summer, I still wanted to look at cocktail rings.  Something about the sun makes me want to hop from patio to patio, sipping cocktails and mingling all the way.

So, when I went hunting for some new jewelry this morning I knew two things:

1. I had my heart set on a cocktail ring
2. I was craving Topaz for some reason

I can't explain it, but I knew there was a beautiful topaz cocktail ring out there and I just had to see it.  Now, I'm not sure I can afford this little beauty, but that doesn't mean I can't leave my browser window open to this page and fantasize all day long.  *sigh*  Some day, beautiful topaz ring.  Some day you will be mine!

Anyway, the ring is 10k yellow gold and the stones are Citrine, Pink Tourmaline and White Topaz.  I think I had more to say about it, but I keep looking at the picture and getting slightly hypnotized.  Take a peak for yourself.
