How to Wear a Toe Ring

Wearing Outfits with Toe Rings

Wear open-toed sandals or flip flops with a toe ring. There’s no point of wearing a toe ring if it’s hidden under socks and shoes. Toe rings are meant to be seen, so wear them with flip flops or sandals. Toe rings are a great summer accessory, because it has to be warm enough for your toes to be bare. Toe rings also look great with bare feet, like when you’re lounging around the house, or at the side of the beach or pool.

Wear a bohemian-style maxi dress with your toe ring. Boho maxi dresses are a great way to express your free spirit. Try a maxi in a floral, tie dye, or paisley print for a bohemian looks. Layer on loads of accessories like bracelets and necklaces, and of course, your toe rings. Gladiator sandals go great with boho looks.

Pair toe rings with palazzo pants for a breezy look. Palazzo pants are long, loose pants, that almost look like you are wearing a maxi-skirt. If you have brightly patterned flowy pants, you might want to pair them with a solid top. You can get high-waisted or low-waisted palazzo pants.

Go for a retro look with flared jeans. Try a more daring, interesting look by pairing your toe rings with a pair of flared jeans. Opt for cropped flares that stop above the ankle so that you can really see your sandals and toe rings. Find flared jeans that are fitted to the knee, and then flare out gently.

Getting the Right Fit

Start with finding a ring for your second or third toe. Start by getting a toe ring for the second toe, which is the one right next to your big toe. The third toe is also a good option. Toe rings can be a bit uncomfortable as you are getting used to them, and many people find that the second or third toes are the most comfy places to wear them. Once you’ve gotten the hang of wearing toe rings on your second toe, you can try on other toes too, even your big toe. It all depends on what feels comfortable to you.

Find your ring size for your toe if you want a fitted ring. Find the toe ring size the same way you’d size a finger ring. Measure your toe with measuring tape and then convert the measurement to ring size using an online ring conversion chart. Fitted rings are more comfortable to wear than adjustable rings, and they come in a variety of materials and styles.

Buy an adjustable toe ring for a one-size-fits-all accessory. Adjustable rings have an opening in the back, so you can squeeze the ring into the right size for your toe. The benefit of adjustable toe rings is that you can adjust the size to fit on multiple toes, and you don’t need to buy a fitted toe ring specifically for you foot. Adjustable rings can pinch the underside of the toe and get snagged on carpets.

Slide the ring just below the toe pad, above the knuckle. The toe pad is the round, top part of your toe, and the knuckle is where your toe bends. Toe rings are most comfortable if they don’t have to touch the floor as much while you are walking, so put them just below the toe pad and above the knuckle. If it’s an adjustable toe ring, cinch the back ends together. You want it tight enough to stay on, but with a little bit of wiggle room so it doesn’t hurt your circulation. It should slide on pretty easily and be a little harder to take off.

Taking Care of Your Feet

Care for your feet by washing them regularly and trimming your toenails. Toe rings draw attention to your toes, so you might as well show off your feet at their best. Wash your feet daily, because they get dirtier and sweatier than the rest of your body. Make sure to dry the area between your toes well to avoid foot fungus! Even though your feet get rinsed off during the shower without you doing anything, you should specifically wash them to keep them clean. Maintain the proper hydration of your feet. After you wash and dry them, applying a thin coat of foot cream such as Eucerin, avoiding the area in between the toes.

Soak your feet for 5-10 minutes in warm water. Before exfoliating and painting, get your feet ready by soaking them in warm water for about 5-10 minutes. Fill a basin or the bath tub with warm water, and you can a little soap, Epsom salt or apple cider vinegar if you want. As your feet soak, they will get softer, making them easier to exfoliate.

Exfoliate your feet with a pumice stone or foot file. Hold the pumice stone or foot file to the bottom of your foot and rub it across the calloused areas. Apply light but steady pressure as move the tool back and forth. Focus on your heels and the sides of your toes, where dry skin tends to build up. If you’re using a foot file, use the coarse side first and then the fine side to smooth over your foot. Don’t be too aggressive. You don’t want to make your feet bleeding! If you have thick and painful corns or calluses, try an overnight treatment: apply urea cream, wrap your feet with plastic wrap, and put on socks. In the morning, use a pumice stone to remove the corns and calluses.

Paint your toenails before you wear a toe ring. Toe rings look great with painted nails. To paint your toenails, first clean off your nails with rubbing alcohol, then separate your toes with toe separators or a tissue. Apply a thin layer of base coat to each nail in thin coats, and then brush on the nail polish color. Then, do a second coat of nail polish for a stronger color. Nail polish could take about 15 minutes to dry, so be patient. To remove polish that accidentally got on your toe, you can wipe it off with your finger or with a q-tip that you dabbed in polish remover.
