As a single, independent woman of some (limited) means, I’ve certainly bought myself a piece of jewelry a time or two. I’ve got some nice watches and a few pretty rings — I simply buy them because I like pretty, sparkly things. But apparently, now my fellow single ladies are putting their hands up with shiny rings on their fingers to symbolize their commitment to “self-love.”
According to Elite Daily,
The Self Love Pinky Ring is the product of jewelry brand Fred And Far, which sells its 1.5 karat, lab-crafted white sapphire ring with a “pinky promise” oath. By signing your name, you’re committing to loving, honoring and choosing yourself above all others.
The rings run from $150 for a sterling silver and to $325 for 14K rose, yellow or white gold. Let’s take a look up close:
You know what I choose, Fred and Far? Not to wear an ugly-shaped, clearly fake diamond on my pinky finger in an effort to validate my self-worth. Thanks, though..

Sounds like another object crossfit/vegan people will make a point to mention
This is fucking stupid. You know what’s more rewarding than buying a fake diamond ring for yourself? Buying yourself a brand new car. Or putting that money towards a vacation fund. This is just dumb.
This is funny. And I think females will buy it.
Chicks, man.
I am a big proponent of females proclaiming their “self love” and filming it so I can watch it on the ‘hub.
*slides one of these rings on pinky finger because husband was a cunning,deceitful fuck*
*dresses like Doctor Evil but with slicked back hair*
*becomes the next President of the United States*
Nothing says “insecure” like having to constantly remind yourself that you’re secure with who you are.
It takes a special type of person to wear a pinky ring, male or female.
Also, a major, but low key, selling point should be that the ring is worn on the finger most likely least involved in true self love, something these women are probably familiar with.
Finally, learn how to include two unrelated thoughts in one post, you simpleton.
Don’t you talk to him like that.
I’m all for women buying any and all beautiful things for themselves. If you want a pinky ring go for it. But this is just gimmicky
Sounds like Fred and Far are ca$hing in on women’s insecurities and desperateness. So sad.
