Must Haves: 10 Simple, Stackable Tiny Rings

Silver, gold, rose gold, brass, pewter — no matter the metal, we can’t get enough of slim, stackable rings. Seen on the hand of just about every celeb worth her style salt, there’s nothing like a helping of subtle metallic flair to finish off any outfit.

Wear just one for a subtle statement, pile them on for a blingier finish, or order them a size small to wear mid-finger; the choice is yours. Here are 10 of our top picks…

Dior Finally Addresses The Market For Overpriced Designer Temporary Tattoos

Designer Lollipops

Great, except that the designer is The Situation. Read More »

I am way too old to readily admit this, but I still harbor a magpie-like inclination towards particularly sparkly temporary tattoos. Oh, they sell $2 packs of glitter dragons at the Asian convenience store on the corner? Well, I’m probably going to buy some and put them on my body. Also, I can’t find anything about this on the Internet so there is a good chance it no longer exists and nobody will ever believe me, but when I was a kid they came out with these Band-Aids that were, like, pictures and shapes of animals? Did this ever happen? Anyway, they ruled and once I went to the beach covered in them, and nobody wanted to play with me because they thought I had a communicable disease of the flesh. Whatever, assholes!

That’s probably why I’m feeling compelled to purchase these stupid expensive 24-karat gold leaf Dior temporary tattoos. Absolutely not under any circumstances do I need them, but they look so shiny, and wouldn’t that be the perfect climax to my lifelong fake tattoo affinity? Do you think I should get drunk and order them, then lose my shit when I see the charge on my card and realize what I’ve done? Probably! [Nordstrom]
