Cartier love band, hi and low versions


I'm not wearing a ton of rings these days as my wedding band has eclipsed all others. Due to my own stupidity, we had to go through a few sizes before getting it right (note: my husband was right about the size). Not having been married before, I've never worn a ring on my wedding finger. I love my rose gold Cartier Love Band.


Then I saw this ring in my fave St Annes charity shop, the animal rescue one. It's a fake gold ring. Instead of diamonds, it's got these cute pink faux stones. It was a pound.


I now wear it on my right hand as a 'companion ring' to the other. Only the Grunge Queen would hi-lo her wedding band!

  1. Loving this hi-lo thang and how fortuitous too to find your wedding band's companion. xx

  2. Nice! And you don't have to worry about the second one being sized again. ;)

    1. Ah, we didn't resize because they wouldn't be able to with the diamonds - so I just couldn't wear my wedding for ages! Luckily my Mom's wedding band, which she can't wear any more, fit me until then! :)

  4. I'm not, and never have been, married, and have only very recently got over the thing of wearing a ring on THAT finger! How mad is that?! Love both your rings! xxx

    1. I never wore a ring on that finger until I was married - it just felt odd. What a slave to custom I am! :)

  5. It's fun mixing real with fake! The 2 bands are very similar - great idea to wear on opposite hands.

    1. I thought so too. Had to refrain from making a joke to hubby that I could have saved him thousands of dollars! :)
