This is the time of year when the party invites accumulate in your mailbox (okay, your inbox) like snowflakes. When you’re donning your fave LBD or that fits-just-right party dress, not any old accessories will do. So why not opt for a cocktail ring that twinkles brighter than the lights strung throughout the Christmas tree?
When it comes to the perfect sparklers, no one does affordable, look-at-me jewelry like Kate Spade. (All of these rings are less than $150!) Much like her new clothing line, every one of these attention-seeking rings is infused with such a lighthearted sense of fun and whimsy.
We think they would be the most squeal-worthy gifts under the tree for a special lady. But we’re also enamored with the idea of treating ourselves to a little sparkling something-something this season. After all, we’ve been awfully good girls all year long—and we’ve been shopping our hearts out for the ones we love. Don’t we deserve a little treat?
Think you can’t pull off such bold baubles? The holidays—with all the tinsel, silver bells and shiny wrapping paper—are just the time to gravitate toward the bling, bling, bling.
But you don’t need a black tie invite to show off these shining stars. We think they would look equally scrumptious with a pair of jeans, a snuggly cardigan and a simple tee. They have just the right amount of blinding spark to bring a little festive merriment to even your most standard of winter wear. So what are you waiting for? Get thee a bit of holiday joy!
1. Bourgeois Bow Ring: Who needs baubles when you’ve got bows? We’ve always loved presents that come complete with obnoxiously large bows teetering on top of the box, so this metallic design is right up our alley.
2. Park Avenue Pearls Ring: Pearls are timeless—which is all the justification we need for a little jewelry splurge. This ring is sophisticated, but certainly not stuffy. We heart jewelry that doesn’t take itself too seriously.
3. Disco Fever Ring: Have visions of sugarplums dancing in your head? We have visions of gumball-colored jewels dancing in ours. We dare you to take a look at these geometric slices of pave crystals in candy hues without getting a sugar rush.
4. Gumdrops Cluster Ring: Speaking of sugary treats, could this cocktail cluster ring get any sweeter? It also comes in a rainbow-colored version, but we prefer the subdued appeal of the clear crystals. There’s just a certain wintry, ice princess quality to this version that makes us think of glistening snow, icicles and flickering lights.
5. Lady Marmalade Mushroom Ring: We weren’t around for the days of disco, but this pretty little thing just screams night on the dance floor. If ever a piece of jewelry made us want to shake our tinsel with complete abandon at the office holiday party, this would be it.
6. Lady Marmalade Tapered Ring: Don’t the glass stones peppered throughout this ring remind you of frost formations on your windowsill? Slip it on when you’re wearing your simplest little black dress, and you’ll be the epitome of effortlessly glam.

The number 2 Park Avenue Pearls Ring, looks amazing. You could wear that ring anywhere you go and can pull it off by wearing it almost everyday. The Avenue Pearls ring would look good with any colthes attire that you may have. on. The color of the ring is a unique creamy color with pearls, and small little diamonds in it. I would by this ring, because just look at it, who wouldn’t ! its FABULOUS. If people would see me wearing this ring that works in a fashion jewery company they would ask questions and complement on the ring and maybe would want a picture, with you wearing the ring, and that would be my dream .
@Kyandra: The Park Avenue Pearls Ring is my fave, too. Well, that and the Disco Fever Ring–it’s a close race. Thanks for stopping by!
