Story time: I pierced my ears when was 13 (hands up for everyone who got their ears done at Claire’s!) but when I had my spinal fusion in 2011, they pretty much closed up. Almost 10 years later, and I miss having pierced ears so much. Every time I go into Kate Spade, I drool over the gold bow studs!

A little while ago, I really wanted to take the plunge and get my ears re-pierced but I hate needles. And then my friend got a Prince Albert piercing, and when he told me about the pain and healing period, I was completely put off. When it comes to healing male genital piercing, you are required to soak your new piercing at least twice a day. I know it is that demanding with ear piercings, but I still don’t think I have te discipline to look after them. Anyway, in the end I decided to try some clip on earrings! I’ve tried a bunch of different styles over the past few months: magnetics, metal, acrylic, you name it!

I have to crown my favorite as…the acrylics! These are the most comfortable, best clip on earrings that I’ve ever tried. There was a little pinching the first few days I wore them, and then no pain after that! I picked a pearl and faux diamond stud but there was an endless amount of styles to choose from.

Here they are in action, with me in my best Jackie O outfit!
