Remember last week when I posted about chunky rings in my List of Lusts? Well, I can finally cross the first ring off the list, because I bought the YSL Arty ring! π
Assert your style status with an iconic Yves Saint Laurent ‘Arty’ ring. Set with a gleaming glass cabochon, this beautifully crafted gold-plated piece is a firm favorite with the fashion pack. Use it to give pared-back separates an instant shot of bohemian luxe.
To say it’s a beautiful ring is an understatement. Having worked with a variety of beads for the past few years, I knew what a glass cabochon was, and that it’s not an expensive bead. In fact, it’s not even a semi-precious gemstone. But this ring has been cleverly and artfully created that it gives a luxe look and an expensive feel. The cabochon is absolutely gorgeous; it’s mesmerising just looking at it.
You can wear it both ways; bead facing upwards will make the ring look a lot bigger as it reaches the second knuckle on the finger.
LeGeeque and I with our Arty rings. Have I mentioned lately how bad we are for each other?
I’m now really tempted to get another Arty ring π
I am too! Shall we buy another one? π π π Like I said, someone mentioned it’s the most fascinating ring he’s ever seen. Either that or he’s trying to butter me up to buy a $200,000 software license π

LeGeeque: Hahaha I’m thinking of either getting another Arty ring, or a set of Monica Vanader ones. Either way, I want more! π
I’ve always loved this ring and seen it on sooo many fashion blogs but don’t think I’ve seen this gold colour! What a great choice Tine!! It definitely is mesmerising~ x

Shizuka: It’s beautiful, isn’t it? I’ve seen it many times in the Net-a-porter mags, and it calls out to me every time π
Gosh… so beautiful! I’m really wanting to pick one up for myself! There are many colours to choose from that it’s going to be a hard pick! π

Jess: Haha did you end up getting one? Which one which one? π
Tine, I’m keeping my fingers crossed that my friend Steph is able to help me get the Valentine edition Arty. Additionally, I’d love to own the coral one actually… The ‘Black Multi’ color would be a very versatile though…
Ugh… I’m going to be broke! :p

It’s really very artsy fartsy and pretty! Not the skull ring kind of funky but elegant kind

Very very YOU! But it must have cost you an arm and a leg, no?

Giddy Tigress: Maybe not a leg, but definitely an arm π For an iconic piece, I’m hoping to keep it for many years to come. Who knows, in future, might be able to sell it? π
It’s a beautiful and unique fashion piece! I love how the both of you have matchy rings too π

Beetrice: Hee hee it’s hard to say. Geek and I might end up getting another different sort of rings instead π
I HAVE ONE COMING TOO!!! YAYYYYYYYYYY
I’m so excited, hence all the yelling π
Tina: OMG WHICH ONE DID YOU GET??? π
I love those arty rings by YSL, really pretty! I’m planning on getting one myself too! Btw, do you happen to buy anything from http://www.saksfifthavenue.com before? Which site would you prefer to get the arty ring? saks or netaporter?
Charlotte: Yep, I’ve purchased from Saks before. I still prefer Netaporter though. Shipping is quick, and great customer service. A bag I bought from Saks took 2 weeks to arrive; Netaporter 1 week. Shipping for both isn’t cheap, so if you can, share with a friend π
Thanks Tine!
