Criss Cross Rings

On Saturday I woke up early and had brunch with friends before we all headed down to Madison Square Garden for the Georgetown basketball game.  I am sad to say that we lost, but I enjoyed the few hours we spent at the game including the baby cup of wine I had.  I do have to say though, I left the Garden and kept thinking about my friend Ali’s ring.  

Her gold criss-cross pave ring sparkled every time she animatedly spoke with her hands and when I got home I immediately started researching them.   Granted, they are not new to the scene but hers was the first subtle one I have noticed – micro pave and very tasteful – and, these rings are here to stay.

All images are from here.

Besides my friend Ali this ring has been seen on a handful of celebs – the yellow gold and champagne diamond one is favored by celebs like Jessica Alba can be found here but honestly who wants to pay $4,300 for this ring?  Not me!  Here are my favorite options in white gold, silver, and rose gold:  

Alex Mika Criss Cross Ring in Rose Gold $106 | Sterling Silver Pave “X”  Ring $28

 Essentials Yellow Gold CZ X Criss-Cross Ring $23

Sterling Silver Criss-Cross X Ring $82 |  Michael Kors Rose Gold-Tone and Glitz X Ring   $65

What do you think of these criss cross rings?
