We're seeing an ongoing trend, in Hollywood and elsewhere, of couples making a commitment without getting legally hitched. Some couples, like Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, consider their children enough commitment, while other couples, like Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins, simply have made the choice not to marry.

If you make the choice to commit without having a wedding or making it legal, you still might want a way to show your devotion. Perhaps you don't want a traditional wedding band, but what about something else? Refinery29 has a great article on rings that are a perfect symbol of commitment without being too bridal.

Whether you call it a commitment ring, a promise ring, or just a gift to show your devotion, a ring on your left ring finger holds a special meaning. We love the idea of using something untraditional to show your unique relationship -- what do you think?
