For a long time, people have used rings to show their feelings and plans. One clear example is the ring that is given during an engagement or wedding, showing a promise to be with someone for life. What about wearing rings on other fingers? Are they just items to wear for style, or do they have more significant meanings?
Lately, wearing a ring on the smallest finger has become popular as a way to show self-love and strength. This trend is often linked to the jewelry brand Fred + Far, which has made popular the concept of wearing a small ring on the pinky finger to celebrate oneself.
Melody Godfred, one of the creators of Fred + Far, says she picked the smallest finger for the self-love ring because it is usually ignored. She put a ring on this finger to show its importance and represent a promise to improve herself and take care of her health. Godfred thinks that loving oneself is important for creating good relationships with others, and her small ring on her pinky finger helps her remember this.
