It pushes the limits of extravagance. It never goes out of style. It abides by one simple rule: the more sparkle the better. Of course I’m talking about the cocktail ring. Coming into vogue during the 1940s and 1950s, cocktail rings have stayed fairly popular for the past few decades, and are once again reappearing on the fashion scene this summer. Meant to be a dramatic in style, a cocktail ring can be the perfect way to complete your favorite summer ensemble. Here are 6 adorable options to inspire your own hunt for your essential summer cocktail ring!
