Friday's Favourite: Ring

So it's  pretty obvious which of my rings is my favourite at the moment... (Hint, my engagement ring :D). I thought I would show you my next two favourite rings I have, both from my parents. The first one I got from them on my 18th birthday. It is an antique piece and is just gorgeous. It was probably once someone else's engagement ring. It's a really classy, feminine ring. It looks fabulous by itself or paired with other rings - it's not too much an over-statement that it looks too much with other pieces but then it is such a classy piece that it looks great by itself as well.

I like to wear it with this other antique ring my parents got me as a Christmas present. I have never seen anything like this ring, it is just so unique and almost 'quirky'. I would name all the stones for you but I am so tired and my bed is calling me! They are held in place by gold 'bearings'... I'm not really sure what you call them but I'm sure you can see what I mean. How beautiful is it and it looks great when the sun is shining on it! Both these antique rings look great on the same hand and I just love them so much. I'm incredibly grateful to my parents for these two beautiful rings.

QUICK TIP: Do you have a ring which has lost its sparkle? This tip will bring that shine back. Get an old tooth brush and fill a cup with some luke-warm water, add a drop of washing up liquid. Lightly (Very lightly! You don't want any of the rocks to fall out) scrub the ring. This should take only a couple of minutes and then your ring will be sparkling again. When I did this I had people commenting for ages on how shiny my rings were. I originally got this from an article on Martha Stewart.

So I'm not sure if you have ever tried to photograph your own hand with a DSLR, silly me didn't think about using my remote or self-timer; it is hard! Here is the best photo I got of both rings on together... The photo doesn't do them due justice because they really are both incredibly gorgeous!

Okay, so I can't leave out my beautiful, antique, engagement ring of my fiancee. Here it is... Again! It's so gorgeous, I really do love it and my fiancée to bits!

So last Friday, my elder-little sister Jessica moved to Ireland for the year to do a gap year. Missing her so much! Thus why there was no Friday's Favourite post, we were waving her away. Then there's been a million other things happening at the same time. I haven't had chance to catch up with many blogs for a long time! I am missing reading what all you creative, fashion minds are writing about. Definitely will set aside an hour or so over the next week to get reading :)

Well, I just got back from a lovely meal with Sammy which was the perfect way to end a long week! Plus, we got to celebrate our engagement together which was lovely. Talk soon lovelies, Georgia X
