The ring stack is to jewelry trends what maxi dresses are to fashion trends. They popped up in a big way, but they aren’t going anywhere any time soon. Especially now that the fashion set knows that maxi’s are simultaneously: comfortable, gorgeous, fashionable, conducive to non-leg-shaving. Ring stacks are exactly the same way (except for the leg shaving). Now that this trend has officially reached saturation, its devotees and late-adopters alike are all “This is awesome.” So no, I don’t think the ring stack is going anywhere for the foreseeable future. Further proof, the ring stack phenomenon has infiltrated bridaly jewelry, typically the one jewelry department where most consumers skew conservative. So with ring stacks making their way into a hopefully very permanent jewelry situation on that very important finger, they’ve asserted their staying power. Now, I like to leave the ring stack open to interpretation. The options for customization run the gamut, but spreading those stacking choices across 10 digits makes the pool of fabulous rings even greater. So I’ve split it into two: stacks and spreads.
Anatomy of a Perfect Stack
Truthfully, the perfect stack depends greatly on the occasion. For example you wouldn’t wear the same stack to the Oscars that you’d wear to a barbecue. Because let’s be honest you could be attending either any given weekend in February. But back to the task at hand:
The Fancy Stack
The Rose gold Stack
The mix and match stack
The Floral Stack
Spread The Love
The spread is also as diverse as its sister Stack. However it lends itself to a more Boho vibe. Not to say it can’t be done fabulously, as demonstrated by the first example…
