Iโve always liked the look of large hoop earrings, but I used to think they accentuated the roundness of my face. Well, they do, but Iโve reached the stage where Iโm past caring ๐
So I now wear large hoop earrings and I like how classic they look. A gold pair of hoop earrings never go out of style ๐
Iโd been looking for a pair of nice classic large gold hoops for a while, but its surprisingly harder to find than you think. I eventually picked these up at the place Iโd least expected to find anything โ Vincci.
They looked gold enough, and were large enough to be interesting yet inexpensive enough that I wouldnโt mind experimenting with them. I think I paid RM20+ after 20% off.
They are quite comfortable on my ears albeit a little heavy after a while. The clasp is a little tight though so one ear gets a little uncomfortable after a while but I did not react to the metal which is a good thing for me.
I donโt wear earrings often enough. I think Iโll start again ๐

I think they look great on you! Iโm trying to wear more dangly earrings this year, so am sitting here with some $5 Diva specials!
Thank you Sam! I love dangly earrings too! In fact I think I prefer something ostentatious for the ears rather than studs ๐
I love hoop earrings โ in all sizes โ despite having a round face! But I think that it does have to be matched either shorter hair or an up-do/pulled-back style. It just doesnโt go with my middle of the back length hair swishing everywhere.
Yeah I think hoop earrings do look better with shorter hair because they donโt get hidden. That said, Iโve seen pictures of women with lovely long hair who do pull it off effortlessly so Iโm sure you can too! ๐ It looks effortlessly chic
I have a silver sterling pair that looks similar to yours, and it has lasted me AGES! Itโs timeless, I agree, and it goes with anything I wear!
Yay! I usually wear silver/white gold but I decided to go with gold this time for a change. I love the timeless classic look and youโre right. It goes well with anything and I even wear it to work. When I have nothing majorly serious on of course ๐
I love hoop earrings!!! But now me fave is my snake bangle ^.^ yes, it is a snake, and I love it, muahahahaha!!
That certainly sounds intriguing! I canโt wear bangles. My wrists are too small for them to look good ๐
Yay for earrings! Iโm a self-professed earring fiend and I love earrings of any kind ๐ To date I have about 80++ pairs, my pride and joy ๐ Go on, wear em hoops proud!
YAY for earrings! ๐ I used to love them too but stopped wearing them after a while. Now, Iโm getting back into the groove ๐
Been wanting to get myself large loop earrings that donโt look too โcheapโ. The last one I had didnโt exactly look very nice :\ โฆyours looks lovely!
I have an unmanageable craze for earrings. Its kinda like your love for blushes I suppose. Haha! I love to go to those morning flea markets, especially the ones in the Curve. there used to be a stall there with gem/semi-precious stone earrings which I cant get enough of. Donโt see it around anymore ๐
I constantly have to remind myself that I only have 2 piercingsโฆwell that was until I got 2 upper earlobe piercingsโฆ. ;P . I shud blog about my earrings one of these days..haha!
I know what you mean about hoops looking cheap. That was my criteria too ๐ Try looking in Vincci โ they really surprised me this time ๐ I used to buy a lot from the bazaars too but Iโve since stopped going. Now I pick up anything that looks interesting, or I hit up sweetcontemplationaccessories.com for some awesome unique designs! ๐
Oh they look good on you! Actually I believe that hoops look good on any shape face! I used to collect them–gold, silver, textured, etc. ๐ Now Iโm too lazy to wear ear rings..must get back into it. Thanks for inspiring me!
Hey Monstro, careful baby doesnโt decide those pretty dangly earrings are a good thing to grab onto! ๐ Iโm slowly getting back into the groove of wearing earrings. Iโm just usually lazy ๐
Ooohhh!! Thats lovely!! You need to wear them more often! Methinks that they look beautiful on you!! ๐
I gotta go Vincci soon to check them out! I hope they have a pair that is less โgoldโโฆ iโve been looking for a pair like that for ages!! ๐
And yes, hoop earrings donโt go out of style. I have a pair of silver ones which have lasted me from my secondary school days until now and am still getting compliments for it. Best part? I think they cost me like like RM10 or something only! ๐
ps: other than hoop earrings, the Chanel double C earrings have been on my wishlist since forever. Maybe someday when i have lost whateverโs left of my sanity, i will actually plonk down so much money for a pair of nickel plated earrings! I hope that doesnโt happen soon though โ because actually iโm allergic to some nickel earrings!! And my husband might leave me! lol!! ๐
Thank you Jenn! ๐ There are some less gold earrings in Vincci, but Iโm not sure if the plain hoops come in that colour. I know they have silver which is quite pretty too. Iโm glad my addiction to luxury items stop at their bags. I was at LV once and saw the prettiest pair of earrings EVER! The price quoted was in 5 digits. For 5 digits I could get real gold and diamonds at a jewellery store! So that ended my wants ๐ See if you can get something similar done up at a jewellery store with a similar type of design. Some stores can do it (and itโll cost you lessโฆ and wonโt cost you your husband ๐ )
I think this is the first time Iโve ever seen you wear earrings, PB! ๐
I love earrings, the more dangly they are, the better! ๐
Haha Yeah I hardly wore earrings during the times when weโd meet up. Maybe I will next time ๐ I have a lovely dangly pair I want to break out.
i donโt like to wear hoop earrings, i always have the phobia of people pulling the earrings off my ears! if it really happens, it is like the deja vu u know? so i better not even allow it to happen once
LOL Thatโs errโฆ. logical ๐ I used to have that fear too but since I a) donโt have long hair and b) donโt have kids the fear is sort of gone.
Iโve always wanted to use them but everytime I do so, it just doesnโt work for my face, actually the real reason isโฆI always accidentally grab my big hoop earrings or brush it which causes me to go โOUCH!!!โ
LOL Actually I think you look great with dangly earrings. ๐ Maybe oval hoops? ๐
large hooped earings only look good on short hair IMO. They look horid on my long straight hair for some reason. on my SIL, they look stunning. I think you look professional and sweet at the same time.
Thanks! ๐ I think long hair hides the earrings so you donโt see it and thus its like a โwasteโ. Iโm sure you look lovely with chandelier earrings!
They look lovely on you!
Thank you Gio!
I cannot use earrings but on my right ear due to allergic reaction. It is interesting because people always think Iโm somewhat of a deviant because of it โ and my hairdresser always fears the left earring went down the drain!
But Iโve stopped using them for some time now. It seems I can use only 18K gold earrings โ my allergy has something to do with the purity of the gold. Too bad I donโt have the money to indulge in it. ๐
I used to be allergic to anything other than gold. It was expensive and so I never/hardly ever wore earrings because pretty real gold earrings can be very costly! But I later lost that allergy (thank goodness!). I like 18k gold. It suits my skin better whereas goldsmiths here use the 22k gold which is too yellow for me. Purer but too yellow. Boo!
Wow~ These large hoop earrings, you looked more confident! Nice ๐ I like!
Hehe Thanks! I do like it too even if my left ear feels like its swollen up at the end of the day ๐
Ouch~ ~ No pain no gain? ๐
I love hoop earrings too! But I found that after a while the coating at the back part (where it touches my neck) disappears, leaving a black oxidised look. My sweat must be too acidic for themโฆ -_-โ
Gosh! Really? Iโve never had that happen to any of my earrings. Perhaps you need real gold ๐
i dont wear big hoops earring since my earlobe are not attached.. =S i felt it looks weirdโฆ bought lotssssss of earring but never really wear it.. =X such a wasteโฆ but still buying it anyway ==!
Gorgeous! Have always loved hooped earrings, but do not have pierced ears to wear them. When I saw them for unpierced ears, sold at Japan, I bought so many ๐
