<br />
the first ring of hers i bought had this gorgeous glad and black swirl print. i love the way the center is fixed onto the ring.<br />

and who doesn't love shields?<br />
<br />
basically, anyone who makes a bulldog ring has my heart. i'm hoping she creates a whole menagerie of animal-themed rings that i can add to my collection. i don't even like animals (except for orca whales), but you can't really pass up a bulldog ring.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7563167181917910910.post-71785425137644684922011-01-18T14:17:00.002-06:002011-01-18T14:19:38.975-06:00jessica stam: w korea<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCCX3wP7jfeuIAAFrdtpJ49b05Lv8-Qk3033Zgc-FHlmPxkwfe09qyr9twz7hlke4qO8UKmsBgChcn1VXLl5WA7NPb8yToAME2nIDwKCBxyFsV4paNhpNFK1wspl667B7kDyKapQwewWc/s1600/jessica1.jpg"><img style="display: block;
