RING YOU HAVE EVER SEEN?!?!

I got my earrings from BIDZ and they are so pretty!  They match the necklace very nicely!  I am very satisfied with them.

I was looking on BIDZ just now and found this ring.  Right now, it is only at $23.00, but valued at $1,560.00.

That looks like something my MIL would have ordered ASAP!  She loved gaudy costume jewelry and had tons of it.  Before she got so sick, she was a large woman and the big cocktail rings and giant necklaces really suited her; they looked nice on her and they matched her personality.  Then the last couple of years of her life she was a little scrawny thing and she didn't wear her big jewelry much.

But IMO?  Yes that ring is ugly.  Unusual, but ugly.  Not something I would ever wear.

  • Some people do like really large pieces. I am thinking this is not as large as the pictures make it appear. It is about 1/2 inch long and 1/2 inch tall.

    Glad you are enjoying your earrings Denim!

    as for the ring, wow, I actually think it is cool....kind of like a special occasion cocktail ring.  Definitely not an everyday thing to wear.

  • It is certainly something unique! And yes, it must be an occasion ring, not something you would want to keep on all the time. I wonder what the clear part would be? Not glass? It looks like that would break too easily. But not a plexiglass or something that would scratch.

    Looks like something 50 Cent would give to some hooker as "bonus bling" for doing a good job.

    GEE THANKS!!!  I have that ring, I am wearing it right now.  I don't appreciate your comments!

    HEE HEE HEE.  Just kidding.  Yep, it's ugly!  It looks like something my aunt would wear though and I know that sounds awful, I mean it in the nicest way possible.  She loves stuff like that.  She pulls it off somehow too.

  • You know what? I thought about that after I posted this! What if someone really does have that ring? I sure would not want to hurt their feelings! Maybeso it looks better on a hand!

    It reminded me of Princess Leia's braided hair buns on the side of her head in Star Wars.  I'm sure it would look really good with her gold bikini!

  • Not into Star Wars, so I do not know who you are talking about. But I bet I can take your word for it!

    I don't know...I can't decide lol. I mean it looks awkward but I also do get drawn to things that are unique. Also some rings look better on than off...assuming the hands modeling the ring are nice.

    I'm so glad you got your earrings and that it was legit afterall. They were very pretty.

  • Love the earrings! It may look much better on than it does in the picture.

    Hmm, well it's different alright, and I'm sure you'd get a lot of comments on it!

    Replies: (list all replies)

  • Yes different. All the gems are suppose to be real. Of course the picture makes it look probably a lot more huge than it really is.

    Very Gaudy.  I could see Katherine Chancellor ( of the Young and the Restless wearing it )

  • The more I look at it, I am thinking that it is the sharp corners on it that are bothering me. Like Laura said, it may not be as huge as it looks.

    hmmmmm....I wonder if that thing can put somebody's eye out? Because if it can, then I think that every girl should have one...you know...just in case ;-)

    Replies: (list all replies)

  • To me, it looks like it sticks out over the next two fingers. But maybe not as much as I think. I am thinking multi-colored log across your hand. If I had it on, I would probably put my own eye out, as that is about how graceful I am!
  • LOL!

    I kinda like it. It is very unique and I bet its small so it wouldnt be like a big ole box on your finger. Different is kinda cool, no one else would have one thats for sure. If you have that kind of money to blow then hey why not....  I would rather have a new flat screen. ;-)

    Replies: (list all replies)

  • Well, unique is certainly one word to describe it. When I posted this it was only at $23.00. Maybeso you are right that the picture distorts the way it look. It may not be as big as what I am thinking it looks like.

    UGLY doesn't even scratch the surface. I'm thinking STUPID-LOOKING! 

     

    Who would BUY that?

     

    NO ONE!!!

     

    Not even ME!

     

    I am glad that you are happy with your earrings!  WOOOO!

    Replies: (list all replies)

  • It is certainly not something I would wear, I do not think. Yo me it looks like something uncomfortable and maybe sticks up too high.
  • Could be used in self-defense? (Silva)
