LET ME SET THE SCENE FOR YOU:

I’m cooking dinner. Parmesan encrusted tilapia (*pinches nose*) in all its scented, herb-infused glory. Then, I’m cleaning said tilapia pans. Then, I’m off to work out, showering after that work out, moisturizing after that shower – all of these situations are instances in which you should remove your engagement ring. Here’s the problem: even when I remember to take off my beloved gem, I have to walk into my closet to set it safely inside my jewelry box. Sure, it’s not a ton of effort when I’m home – but on the go, what’s a gal to do? Introducing:

RING BANDITS

The functional, stylish accessory with a hidden zipper pocket. Ring Bandits look like chic little bracelets, but their purpose is so much bigger than style alone. Ring Bandits fit your wrist, water bottle or phone – so whether you’re attending hot yoga, bleaching the bathrooms or getting hands on at work, you can remove your ring and keep it close, ensuring its safety.

More than one in 10 (11%) clumsy couples lost an engagement or wedding ring, with more than a third going straight down the drain – the top reason cited was kitchen or bathroom-related mishaps (34%). 29% took it off and misplaced it, while more than a quarter (27%) said that their ring fell off their finger and they couldn’t find it later. One in five (18%) explained that their ring fell off when they were swimming.

The thought of losing my engagement ring threads my stomach into KNOTS. I love wearing my silicone ENZO band (when I remember to swap it out before a workout) but that’s the issue – there are so many daily activities that could tarnish or ruin your ring; and they can be avoided by simply taking it off and storing it safely in your Ring Bandit!

This is the perfect stocking stuffer for anyone this season. In addition to your newly engaged bestie, your fiance, cooking afficianado work friend and cross-fit instructor will LOVE the soft, stylish accessory. Place a house key, medication, money, anything small and valuable inside. They’re essential for your wild Vegas bachelorette or Hawaiin honey moon!

I have recently developed this double-checking OCD-like habit related to anything important. When I leave the house, I have to go through my routine to make sure the stove is off, the dogs’ water bowls are filled, my hair tools are unplugged and the door is locked. I know that when I take off my ring and zip it in, I’m also removing the anxiety that comes with losing my engagement ring. I couldn’t be more pleased with my Ring Bandit – they’re comfy, cute and less than $25 (well worth avoiding the expense of fixing or replacing your rings.) Get yours here!
