Get ready to Glam it up with the latest in cocktail rings! Sex in the City gal pals helped to initiate this eccentric trend which has recently joined the mainstream of mainstay jewelry. Following an autumn theme, spicy amber, dark cognac and smoky quartz stones where all the ring rage.  For spring, generous gems are popping up in chic hues of pink, vivid violet and intense amber.  Black & white also rules with rich onyx, snow agates and opulent opals commanding attention for the year ahead.

For the ring, shape dictates style.  Cool rocks are perched in prong-less mod styles, while classic cushion cut stones catch the light as they sit high and mighty in golden and silvery settings.  Round and domed profiles seem to dominate, while more traditional emerald and princess cuts are just as playful.  Designs are versatile with the more modern opaque stones, which are perfect for day, while translucent dazzles for evening.  Stackable have also been spotted.  Rich rows of glittery bands featuring clear and colored stones are marvelously meshed together to create a knuckle-to-knuckle knock out look.  Over the top rings are hands down the perfect embellishment to any elegant ensemble and will be likely remain on the scene for a few more seasons.
