10 Cute, Dainty Rings To Compliment Your Summer Mani

2021 was ALL about thick, chunky jewellery – I seriously couldn’t scroll through my Pinterest feed without seeing an oversized ring somewhere! And, as much as I love a statement piece, there’s always room in my heart (and my jewellery box!) for dainty alternatives. Smaller, more subtle rings are perfect for stacking and can be easily dressed up or down. The best thing about these kind of rings is that they never really go out of style – they’re those classic pieces that you can dig out time and time again, and match with practically any outfit!

I’ve been shopping around for some cute, dainty rings to add to my jewellery collection and luckily I’ve found tons of gorgeous options. It really makes me wish I could buy them all! You’ll notice that most of the rings below are gold plated, but the majority of retailers also offered them in sterling silver or rose gold too. So, if gold isn’t really your thing, you’re free to choose a finish that suits you!

Ready to jump into it? Here are 10 dainty rings that are sure to make your manicure shine this summer (and of course the rest of the year too!)

Daisy London Iota Daisy Ring

Floral jewellery is a summertime classic. Would it really be summer without a few daisies or sunflowers thrown into the mix? Daisy London’s Flower Edit is proof that everyone needs a floral ring, necklace or pair of earrings in their collection … and if you’re stuck choosing, why not go for the Iota Daisy Ring? This adorable little band makes it feel like you’re wearing a literal daisy chain around your finger, it doesn’t get any cuter than this!

Astrid & Miyu Wave Mint Enamel Ring

Nabi London Pink Laurel Ring

Ok, this might just be the cutest ring I own. The details are incredible and it feels super light on – I honestly forget I’m wearing it sometimes! Tiny pink and white gems are nestled between the golden flowers that decorate the band, and there’s also a couple of leaves (to continue the floral theme). I’ve got this in a UK F which fits as a midi, but I think this would look equally good as a standard ring too!

Venus Loves Dainty Twist Ring

There’s nothing wrong with a plain gold band, but this twisted design just takes your jewellery game to a whole new level. Wear it alone for a simple, understated look, or stack it with other gold pieces to really make sure all eyes are on your new summer nails.

Astrid & Miyu Navette Crystal Band Ring in Gold

Looking to add a bit of sparkle to your ring collection? Why not go for this Astrid & Miyu Navette Crystal Band? With its mix of round and navette-shaped gems, this ring looks super stylish and elegant. Best of all, it’s made from recycled sterling silver, so you’re playing your part for the environment too!

Lily & Roo Gold Thin Plain Stacking Ring

A simple, thin band is a timeless piece that’ll make any outfit look super chic. Still searching for the perfect one? Lily & Roo’s plain stacking ring is a solid choice. It’s 1mm thick – so it’s REALLY dainty looking – and can be incorporated into almost any ring stack. If you’re looking for something that’s super versatile, this is it.
