Important "Engagement Ring" When to Wear It...?
An eternal symbol of love received from the one you love, the "engagement ring."
It's so exciting that you want to keep admiring it and wearing it all the time!
However, in reality, with work and daily life, some people only wear it for wedding invitations or anniversary dates, while others wear it every day.
Therefore, you might wonder when is the right time to wear it for yourself...! What do others do...?
Many brides might have this little question in mind.*
So this time, I asked my friends, "When do you actually wear your engagement ring?" ♡ For brides who are having trouble deciding, please refer to this! ♩
Senior brides share when they actually wear their engagement rings ① Always wearing it
First, I asked a friend who is a stay-at-home mom with one child.* This friend wears her engagement ring all the time, even in the shower!
In fact, when she chose the engagement ring, she said, "I want to wear it all the time, so I don't need a big diamond! I prefer one that's embedded!" and chose a design without a raised setting. ◎
Since the diamond is embedded and there are no sharp edges, she finds it comfortable to wear. ♡
By the way, another stay-at-home mom with two kids also wears her engagement ring all the time.*
This friend has a raised setting ring but said, "I don't find it bothersome while raising kids; I wear it continuously, so it’s part of my skin!" ◎

Next, I asked a friend who works full-time.* She works in the IT industry, where clothing and accessories are quite flexible. ♩
Therefore, she wears it from the time she leaves home until she returns! However, once she gets home, she worries about damaging it while doing housework, so she puts it in a ring case.*
She mentioned that she’s also careful not to misplace it at home and has a strict habit of putting it in the ring case as soon as she gets back! ◎

Next, I asked another friend who works full-time.* This friend also works at a relatively flexible company and wears her ring while at work. ◎
She doesn't take it off when she gets home; she only removes it when bathing or cooking!
During those times, she keeps it in her jewelry box in a designated spot to avoid losing it. ♡

Next, I asked a friend who works in the service industry. ◎ Since she can’t wear her engagement ring at work, she only takes it off during working hours!
Once she arrives at the office, she keeps her engagement ring in her wallet like a charm, and puts it back on when she leaves. ♡
I thought it was adorable how she consistently remembers to wear it outside of work. ♡

Next, I asked a friend who works part-time.* She mentioned that she can wear it at work but only puts it on when going on dates with her fiancé or for special invitations. ♡
The diamond in her engagement ring is large! She’s afraid of losing it if she wears it daily, so she reserves it for special occasions. ◎
By the way, I had another stay-at-home mom friend who follows this pattern as well.*
She doesn't wear it regularly because she has to be careful while taking care of her kids, but she wears it occasionally while on dates. ♡
In this way, when I asked my friends who are senior brides, everyone had different responses. *
[Question] What did you do during the engagement period?
However, during the engagement period, or in other words, as "pre-brides," many friends said, "I wore it when going out." *
Even friends who wear it to work now wore their engagement rings about half the time during their pre-bride period. They felt a bit embarrassed and weren’t sure when to wear their engagement ring at the office since they hadn’t shared their engagement with others yet!
However, many friends wore their engagement rings on special days like dates or when visiting wedding venues during the engagement period, enjoying the feeling of happiness. ♩
When to wear an engagement ring is personal; wear it according to your lifestyle ♩
After asking my friends, I realized that the timing for wearing an engagement ring varies greatly! Just like lifestyles are different, the timing for wearing an engagement ring is diverse as well. *
Additionally, whether or not it has a raised setting or the presence of melee diamonds also affected whether they would wear it daily!
Considering various factors such as company regulations and having children, it would be great if you could think about when you want to wear it overall and find your favorite design. ♡
