Abbott Lyon's top-rated Fidget Ring is the chic accessory to soothe anxiety
Metro journalists select and curate the products that feature on our site. If you make a purchase via links on this page we will earn commission – learn more Anxiety and stress can creep up on anyone, and there are various ways to manage it; yoga and meditation, journaling, therapy, some may take medication, herbal remedies, use pulse point oil, or exercise. In recent years there has been an increase in people using fidget rings to calm their nervous hands, even Hailey Bieber, Gigi Hadid and Olivia Rodrigo have reportedly been spotted with the anxiety-reducing accessory. A fidget ring aims to keep the hands busy, instead of chewing your fingernails, picking at the skin, your hair, but in a subtle way. Abbott Lyon has created a stylish accessory that will help to soothe the mind and body, but also look great on your fingers too. Crafted from stainless steel, and plated in 18k gold if you opt for the gold version, for a sturdy and stylish design. The chunky ring appears like two rings, and the inner ring rotates to help alleviate anxiety. The inner band can be personalised with up to six characters, symbols or precious in gold, silver, or a hybrid of both, it also comes in four sizes. BUY NOW FOR £79 The Abbott Lyon Fidget Ring is part of Olivia Attwood's collection with the jewellery brand, and this partnership is fitting as Olivia has been open about her battle with ADHD and anxiety. The Fidget Ring looks like two rings in one as the main band measures 7mm while the second band layered on top, which rotates, is 4mm. Whether you select the gold, silver, or hybrid of both, the ring boasts a durable stainless steel base, which is then plated in 18k gold – if you opt for the gold version, of course. It has been made from 60% recycled materials, which is a more eco-conscious option than other rings. It is water, sweat and heat resistant, which means you don't have to take it off in the sun or to wash. The best part is it is tarnish-free, thanks to the anti-tarnish protective coating, which is an essential in our jewellery style book. Now you may have guessed by the name this ring can be personalised, which is another huge selling point in our opinion for those that want a sentimental touch to the design, especially if it is a gift. The rotating wheel of the ring can be personalised with up to six letters, symbols or birthstones. Even if this ring is only a gift to yourself, having a name or symbol may also help to alleviate your mind when things get overwhelming, so we think this is a clever touch. The ring is available in four sizes, and you can get assistance online to help find the perfect fit. More Trending There is another bonus. Abbott Lyon is offering customers a two-year warrant on your purchase. However, we doubt you'll need it after reading customers' reviews. Lauren simply put it: 'Top quality, amazing product.' A separate shopper, Dan, wrote: 'This was the item I came looking for, my wife has seen fidget rings before, picked up and tried some on at various jewellery craft markets. She liked them, but they were never quite what she was looking for – this one from Abbott Lyon is spot on, clean lines, modern aesthetic and the fidget rotation/movement is smooth. The stamps and personalisation MAKE this item. Choose the stamps carefully and you can make a cute message or meaning with the symbols available. Was a birthday present for my wife, she has worn it everyday since.' While Donna shared: 'My daughter suffers from anxiety, this is so perfect and not too flashy even her school has allowed her to wear it.'

I've styled them with this gorgeous printed shirt from H&M, matching beaded earrings and a raffia bag, plus some sandals that you could easily swap for gold heels in the evening. Advertisement See you at the airport! Why the high street still rules! Fabulous' Fashion Director, Tracey Lea Sayer shares her thoughts. I WAS 10 when I first discovered the utter joy of high-street shopping for clothes with my mum and nan. Going into town on Saturday became a family tradition – a girls' day out we would look forward to all week. My mum's favourite shop was M&S, where she would gaze at jackets with big shoulder pads and floral sundresses, while my nan would make a beeline for John Lewis and their classic coats and elegant court shoes. I was all over Tammy Girl – Etam's little sister – and Chelsea Girl, which was later rebranded to high-street fave River Island. I would spend hours in the changing rooms, watched keenly by my two cheerleaders, who gave the thumbs up – or thumbs down – on what I was trying on. Frilly ra-ra skirts, duster coats, polka dot leggings, puff balls, boob tubes… I tried them all, often making my nan howl with laughter. Fashion wasn't so fast back in the 1980s and every item was cherished and worn until it fell apart – literally – at the seams. At 18, I went to art college and my tastes became more refined. Extra cash from a part-time job in a bar meant I could move on to slightly more expensive stores, like Warehouse, Miss Selfridge and the mecca that was Topshop. I knew at this point I wanted to work in fashion because the high street had totally seduced me. One day, I wrote an article for a competition in a glossy mag about my love of retail therapy and my favourite LBD – and I won! That led me to where I am today – Fashion Director of Fabulous . It's not just me that loves the high street – big-name designers are fans, too. When Cool Britannia hit in the '90s, they all turned up in one big store. Designers at Debenhams was a stroke of genius by Debenhams CEO Belinda Earl, designer Ben de Lisi and fashion director Spencer Hawken, who introduced diffusion ranges from John Rocha, Matthew Williamson and Betty Jackson, to name a few. This meant we could all afford a bit of luxury and wear a well-known designer's signature style. Years later, I hosted a night with Debenhams and Fabulous for 250 readers, who were in awe meeting all the designers. It was a real career highlight for me. In 2004, H&M started rolling out their international designer collabs. Karl Lagerfeld was first, followed by Roberto Cavalli, Marni, Stella McCartney, Maison Martin Margiela, Sonia Rykiel, Comme des Garçons, Balmain, Versace and many, many more. I could barely contain myself! Then in 2007, Kate Moss launched her first collection with Topshop, with thousands queuing along London's Oxford Street. I remember sitting behind Ms Moss and Topshop boss Philip Green at a London Fashion Week Topshop Unique catwalk show. I had my three-year-old daughter, Frankie, in tow and we both made the news the next day after we were papped behind Kate, my supermodel girl crush. At the time, the high street was on fire. Who needed designer buys when Mango stocked tin foil trousers just like the designer Isabel Marant ones and you could buy a bit of Barbara Hulanicki's legendary brand Biba from Topshop? High street stores even started to storm London Fashion week. Although Topshop Unique had shown collections since 2001, in 2013 River Island showed its first collection in collaboration with global superstar Rihanna, who was flown in by a friend of mine on a private jet. KER-CHING! A whole new generation of high profile high street collabs followed. Beyoncé created Ivy Park with Topshop's Philip Green and I even flew to LA for Fabulous to shoot the Kardashian sisters in their bodycon 'Kollection' for Dorothy Perkins. I am pleased to say they were the absolute dream cover stars. Fast forward to 2024 and while the high street doesn't look exactly like it did pre-Covid, it has made a gallant comeback. Stores like M&S, Reserved and Zara, and designer collabs like Victoria Beckham X Mango and Rochelle Humes for Next are giving me all the feels. The supermarkets have really come into their own, too, smashing it with gorgeous collections that look expensive, but at prices that still allow us to afford the weekly shop. The last 30 years of high street fashion have been one big adventure for me. Bring on the next 30!
