I'm really digging the knuckle ring trend right now. ShopBop has a number of double “floating” rings (some of which are already sold out). I haven't gotten one yet, so I'm only guessing they're not terribly wearable for typing and the like, but for a weekend or evening outing, I think they're kind of rockstar. This rose gold one from Campbell is $165. Campbell Knuckle Floating Ring

My mom is impossible to buy for, and getting worse. This year, she and Dad are going on a river cruise in Europe right before her birthday, so I’d like to get her something to use on the cruise.
Is a travel alarm clock with digital photo frame, preloaded with pix of grand kids, home, etc a good idea?
This one is right in my price range. The temp is a nice extra, but I wish the frame was bigger–1.5″ is pretty small, even in a cruise cabin
