I was lucky enough to take out some of the Simuero toe rings for a spin, and they soon became a staple in my summer uniform. I took three pieces with me on a short trip, and they were the key to making a limited carry-on-only wardrobe shine brighter — quite literally. I wore multiple rings with my flip-flops to gallivant across museums and head to the beach, and opted for a more pared-down vibe with one simple ring for more formal outings, like dinners.
“To take the best care of toe rings, the formula is easy: the more you wear them, the better they get,” explain Rocío and Jorge. “Since they are made of silver, they essentially clean themselves with daily use. Then, when you take off a piece, we recommend lightly cleaning them with a soft cloth and saving them in individual pouches, away from humidity.”
Materials are key when choosing your toe rings. A precious metal like silver, as Simuero uses, is best, but if you are worried about losing them or want a more affordable option, gold-plated alternatives also work. Teen Vogue‘s contributing writer Kara Nesvig is partial to these st. Moran adjustable toe rings: “They’ve stayed on for a full month, no slipping or tarnishing — even after a week of jumping off the boat into the lake!”
As far as sizing goes, most toe rings feature adjustable open closures. However, like with any finger ring, it’s always best to triple-check before making a purchase.
Toe rings on the runway and red carpets
Toe rings might thrive by the sea, but their influence expands beyond pools and shores. Toe rings also belong on the high-fashion runway and were most recently seen during Chloé’s spring-summer 2019 womenswear show, where models strutted down the runway wearing heels and sandals, completed by anklets and toe rings for an added element of sophistication.
