Wearing rings on the second toes of both the feet have long been a custom
for married women in India. In South India, when a woman gets married, her
bridegroom places the toe rings on the 2nd toe each foot. This means
that the wedding ceremony is over & the marriage is official. The most
essential symbol of a married woman apart from her thali or mangalsutra are the
rings on her toes. The maang tikka on the forehead is usually covered by the
pallav while a married woman is in public.
Nowadays, even unmarried women wear toe rings though
they’re not in matched pairs. While in the North, girls wear toe rings for
fashion, the rules are more rigid in the south. Even wearing a single toe- ring
is considered a sign of marriage. In ancient times, even men wore toe- rings,
but that fashion has since been discarded as men have adopted the habit of
wearing shoes.
As women also have started to wear closed toed shoes & sandals, it
becomes painful to wear toe- rings on all 5 toes. The habit of toe- rings are
now a fashion necessity rather than of custom or tradition. A pair of Floral
Peridot Green Marquise Silver Toe Rings are perfect for work or play. They look
good with a colour- blocked jersey dress or a bottle green Kancheevaram silk
sari. For eco-loving fashionistas, the Dolphin Silver Toe Rings are great
statement of their love for nature.
Buy toe rings at great discount on websites like GemLN India. Match them to
delicate & sleek silver
anklets designs. Shop online for genuine silver jewellery that doesn’t
tarnish or blacken. Turquoise Floral Intaglio Silver Toe Rings are great with
silk cotton & designer silk saris. For jeans, capris & mini- skirts, a
pair of slim Blue Conch Bead Silver Anklets are the best foot accessories.

Silver Stud Earrings For Your True Love
What will you give your first love
this season? Many of us going to college can’t afford to buy very expensive
gifts. Girls have a little easier as guys prefer to go out for a movie rather
than receive jewellery as presents. For most girls however, it’s a challenge to
give their friends cheap silver jewellery that’s not expensive but will suit the receiver’s tastes.
Try to figure out what your friends
like. Going shopping together means that you’ll be able to learn about your
friends’ tastes in jewellery, clothing, food and a whole lot more. If your
friends and you don’t share similar tastes, that’s ok too. Simply go online
with them & ask them what kind of jewellery they like. You’re bound to get
an idea of what your friends like, rather than you guessing & muddling your
way through.
A Gold Plated Green Pendant with a
matching pair of silver stud earrings is the ideal gift for a college friend whom you’ve grown
close to during the course of your studies. The green stone denotes the hope
and nurturing aspect of your nascent friendship that’s still in its early
stages. The 18K Rose Gold Plated finishing signifies that you’re hoping the
friendship grows with time & become a classic just like the rose gold hue.
Gift a long- time friend Rococo Oval
Zircon Silver Earrings & Pendant jewellery set. The classic and
effervescent design shows that your friends have been with you for a long time
& have developed a beautiful relationship. The central stone is an oval
white zircon in a 4-prong setting surrounded by evenly spaced tiny white cubic
zircons in a floral pattern. It is surrounded by a larger halo of similar white
cubic zircons creating a resplendent pendant. The matching stud earrings have
one row of white zircons surrounding the oval solitaire white cubic zircon. A
wonderfully thoughtful gift for a friendship of a lifetime.

Easy Buys: Silver Earrings for Women
It’s summer and we’re off to fun in the sun
or a cool place in the hills. Blue is a cool colour to play about in during
summer. It’s very versatile as it complements many Indian skin tones without
making them look dull and lifeless unlike pastels favoured by Western wear
labels. People who favour blue are considered to be reliable and respectable. Even
if you don’t wear outfits in all the shades of blue, consider wearing blue
stone or enamelled silver earrings for women.
It’s a tranquil colour that soothes your
eyes and makes you feel cool even during the hottest days of Summer. A denim
shorts and cool cropped top in white paired with a Carbuncle Blue Zircon Silver
Bracelet makes you look like a chic vacationer wherever you are. Add on a pair
of Blue & Yellow Silver Second Earrings with matching yellow slippers &
you’ll be ready to rock this summer. A pair of second earrings for women is
essential for vacationing young girls and women. The second piercings in the
ears enhances the feeling of edgy sophistication.

Evenings out with friends in a blue crepe
cotton kurti or sari with a Blue Heart Duet Bracelet in sterling silver means
you’ll be cool & refreshed always. Two sterling silver hearts curving in a
cushion-like fashion are linked to the stiff bangle bracelet. A stiff bracelet with
a carbuncle blue bow-motif in the centre is placed between the hearts to denote
the eternal bond of love.
Married women can flaunt their pampered
feet in Blue Bunny Silver Toe Rings, which they can wear with saris or
traditional salwar kurtis. Lighten up a sober ensemble with blue and sparkling
white cubic zircons on petit, delicate toe- rings. Even if you’re unmarried,
your best friend and you can share a pair of toe- rings – one for each of you.
This way, you can get more designs for much less.
Look out for imported fashion jewellery set with
Austrian crystals. Much cheaper than Swarovski crystals, Austrian crystals are
just non- branded version that are just as stylish, with the same quality.
