[Darren Almond](http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fdarren-almond.jp%2F&langpair=ja%7Cen&hl=en&ie=UTF-8) makes simple yet elegant coffee mugs for all you singles who like to show off their bling. It's called the cUp Ling and it's a coffee mug that comes with an attachable ring for your finger. The rings come in mix and match colors like black, white and gold. The rings each have a stone in the center in imitation diamond or ruby that looks really unique and cool. You just slide your ring finger into it when drinking your java so you can show off while you sip.
