Because Your Oura Ring Deserves Diamonds

Are You Just Roommates? Expert Warns of Rising ‘Parallel Living’ Trend in Relationships

Couples may be spending more time together than ever, but many are drifting further apart. Relationship expert Steffo Shambo warns that a rising trend known as “parallel living”—where partners share the same space but remain emotionally disconnected—is quietly damaging modern love. With technology stealing attention and screens replacing eye contact, experts fear couples could be turning into housemates rather than lovers without even realising it.

If you love wearable wellness tech but crave the glamour of fine jewellery, your prayers have just been answered. Los Angeles-based diamond jeweller Suzanne Kalan has launched a dazzling capsule collection of ring jackets designed to upgrade health tracker rings like Oura—giving your biohacking accessory a much-needed couture twist.

With wearable tech now embedded in our daily lives, health tracking rings offer a sleek, low-key alternative to Fitbits and smart watches. But for those with a taste for sparkle, the minimal design leaves something to be desired. “So many women would show me their rings, then quickly hide their hands and say ‘Don’t look at my tech ring!’,” Kalan says. “That’s when I knew — there had to be a way to make these rings something you want to show off.”

Her solution? Stacking-style ring jackets crafted in white, yellow or rose gold, lined for comfort and crowned with her signature Fireworks motif of baguette diamonds. Designed to hug health rings between two bands of brilliance, these sculptural accents transform your fitness tracker into a luxury statement — from yoga mat to wine bar.

The collection is aimed at fans of wellness and style alike. Smart rings like Oura are worn daily by celebrities like Jennifer Aniston, Prince Harry and Gwyneth Paltrow, and offer round-the-clock insights into heart rate, temperature, sleep cycles, and stress levels. Members pay a monthly fee and track their metrics via sensors discreetly embedded inside the band.

Oura currently dominates the smart ring market with over 80% share, while new contenders like Samsung’s Galaxy Ring and Ultrahuman aim to follow. But with design-led touches like Kalan’s diamond jackets now entering the space, the future of wearable tech just got a lot more glamorous.

The Suzanne Kalan x Oura ring jackets are available online and at Harrods.
