Many Women Are Putting Engagement Rings On Their Pinkies, Here’s What It Means!

#1 Many young women are advertising this philosophy with a ring on their pinky.

#2 It might look a lot like an engagement ring, but it symbolizes something else...

#3 ...a woman being in love with who she is.

#4 These pinky rings promote the idea that you have to love yourself above all else.

#5 That isn't to say you should be selfish or self-love should come at the exclusion of loving others...

but rather that you have to truly love yourself first.

#6 One type of the heart-shaped rings comes with the "Pinky Promise" that reminds women to take of and love themselves.

#7 Several jewelry companies sell them at different prices, but it's the idea that's far more important than the jewelry.

#8 They're meant to be a little flashy. It's a point of pride, after all.

#9 You can also double up by wearing one on each hand if you're feeling it.

#10 Images of these rings are becoming more and more popular on Instagram thanks to several celebs being spotted with the rings.

#11 Not only does it serve as a reminder to the person wearing it...

#12 ...but at this point they're unique enough...

#13 ...that they're sure to get attention and inquiries from others, which helps spread the word!

#14 Whether or not they stick around or pass as many trends do...

#15 ...they're doing something now to get women talking about an important part of life, and that's pretty great.
