    So I was playing around in my jewelry box this morning to see if I had any rings I could wear with my wedding band when I want a "low profile" look.

    I found 2 tiffany rings my parents got for me in HS, so bees... what do you think of them with my wedding band?

    The tiffany rings are actually silver but they've tarnished a little over time. My wedding band is in the middle.

    @KatNYC2011: I like them!  Maybe just polish the Tiffany rings up a little  :)  

    (FYI I got AMAZING silver jewelry cleaner at Walmart - 10 second dip and you'd be amazed at the results!!!)

    @KatyInWaiting: Yeah... the silver does need cleaning! But I don't think it'll ever be the same color as the wedding band (which is platinum).

    I'll have to look for some good silver cleaner, I'm not sure they have WalMart in the UK.

    @KatNYC2011:  I think they look great.  I agree the silver needs a bit of a clean up.  It will make quite the difference.  I've always stuck with making a paste with baking soda and cleaned silver that way.

    I love it! 

    Stacking is addicting, and its so much fun to mess with you ring set. It breathes life into something that is a staple in your wardrobe.

    @MASPA: Just baking soda and water? I'll have to try that. As you can probably tell by the color of the two rings, I've never cleaned silver...

    @KatNYC2011: yup. warm water. and something coarse to clean with (a toothbrush/sponge etc).  toothpaste works alright as well.

    @MASPA: Hmm... well I don't have baking soda (will get some) but I might shine them up with some toothpaste for now.

    @KatNYC2011: I use an old make-up brush instead of a toothbrush. I just feel like it's softer and less likely to scratch the metal. I'm not even positive that a toothbrush WOULD scratch the metal, I'm just paranoid.

    ETA: Also, I let my rings soak in warm water with soft soap, and then scrub them up with the make-up brush.

    I like them together. I think once everything is all shiny again it will be a great look :)

    It looks nice! Are you considering not wearing your engagement ring as much because it's such a bigger stone than what most women wear in England?

    @Evie19: That is part of the reason. It also sits up fairly high and does catch on things. I LOVE wearing it, but when I'm doing things that require a lot of use of my hands (like horseback riding, cleaning, other things) I'd like to have another option.

    @KatNYC2011: I was just asking b/c mine is on the big side here in Greece and sometimes I don't want to wear it when I'm just running out for errands or in shady neighborhoods here and there...

    Anyway, the rings look nice, and they'll be even more radiant after the polish. :)
