Fashion || Midi-Rings
Ever since I started watching The Persian Babe's YouTube channel a few weeks ago (don't know why it took me so long to find her. What have I been doing with my life?), I've been obsessing over the silver midi-rings she wears in all her videos. I think they go with everything and add a little bit of an edge to an outfit without going over the top. I also have a silver hoop in my cartilage piercing and I like that they match that as well.
Barbara (The Persian Babe) got her rings from a website based out of the Netherlands called Fashionology, but her specific rings are no longer available on that website. Regardless, Fashionology's prices were also a little bit steeper than what I am willing to pay for simple silver rings, so I opted for a seller on Etsy. The store name is Serge And Destroy and I bought the Sterling Silver Knuckle Rings in a size 3. To be honest I probably could have done with a 2.5 for at least one of the rings, because a 3 is still a bit loose on my ring finger...but I have very small hands so most people should be fine with a 3 or 3.5.
The most important thing I learned through the online midi-ring search process, though, was that you are supposed to subtract three sizes from your normal ring size. This made sense for me, because the normal size of my middle finger is a 6.
By the way, my nail polish is Essie's Smooth Sailing.

Neutral Nails
So I know that spring is supposed to mean that we pack away the dark clothes of our winter wardrobes and dust off all of our brights and pastels...but I just don't think I can part with my blacks and navys. In the past year, I've found myself veering away from bright colors in my wardrobe and toward neutrals of all kinds. And my nails are no exception. Granted, I have way more nail polish than is acceptable for a college student on a budget, but I recently decided to pick up a few more to satisfy my craving for more neutral colors in my nail polish wardrobe (note to self: if you have enough nail polish to say you have a "nail polish wardrobe," there's something wrong).
Here are some of my recent manicures. They're certainly not spring-appropriate, but who really cares?
