MK was the first fashion lover we noticed embracing the full finger ring back in December, and we loved it. Now, we’re spotting Rihanna wearing one (and sometimes two) during her ongoing media blitz - most recently at the the awesome BET Awards.

While the trend takes cues from calvary armor of the 16th century, the ring variation has typically been reserved for more hardcore Goth culture. We still don’t know whether to call them “Gauntlet Rings,” “Full Finger Rings,” “Armor Rings,” “Over the Knuckle Rings,” or some variation thereof - but Googling will turn up some pretty diabolical results. And everyone still thinks we mean “Brass Knuckles”. Definitely not.

Vivienne Westwood has been making her “Armour Ring” for years, but it’s a little expensive and we’re on the hunt for a more delicate looking variation, like the filigree version Rihanna’s sporting at left. Maybe it’s a sign, but we’re not having much luck.

So in the future, if you see us on the street giving someone the finger, at least you’ll know why.

The first additions to the Seventh Avenue Fashion Walk of Fame - after a five year hiatus - have finally been chosen.

Diane von Furstenberg (Fashionista’s pick!) and Liz Claiborne will be added to the Walk, alongside Calvin Klein, Donna Karan, Marc Jacobs, Mainbocher, Rudi Gernreich and the rest.

DVF and Liz Claiborne’s names will be imprinted on star-shaped plaques along with one original design from each.

We expect Diane to show up in her wrap dress, but we were half-worried at the thought that Tim Gunn could be the recipient for Liz’s award - thankfully, her widower, Arthur Ortenberg, will walk the ceremony in her place, hopefully in red.
