Ive been wanting these for a long time... and when some Christmas money came my way I figured its time for a sparkle treat-yo-self! Thank you very much to Brian Gavin's Lesley who was able to intercept my package from their shipping room and hold it until I was back in town from the holiday :) I would have been so sad to miss the FedEx window!

They are just SO delicate and perfectly made. The signature melee is just sooooo sparkly with crispy arrows, definitely worth the little extra cost compared to a mass retailer. The pics do no justice for the diamonds but I will try! I know I scoured the forum for every single real life pic of these I could find before I ordered. I thought they would actually hug my ear more, but apparently (as I learned from comments on my .3 ctw studs) I have wee baby earlobes. Who knew!? Ill take it :)

I feel like I have a nice delicate every-day yellow gold set now between my WF ACA bezel pendant, these huggies for when I want a little more twinkle, and my baby bezel studs for absolute minimalism. These will satisfy me until I can swing substantial studs! Im thinking .8-.9 ctw would look nice with my bebe lobes :) but those are a few years off. Thanks for indulging this share :)



Box in a box...

In a bag!

Lovely velvet sliding box, different than the wood one I was expecting


Now we're getting somewhere....

Oh my gosh, those look perfect on you! Those are exactly what I'm looking for too...small enough for everyday wear!
I've got to go take a look at those!
 
Oh my gosh! I love those! I thought about them a few years ago and now I'm wondering why I didn't buy. They look great on you!!!!

Guess what I'm putting on my birthday list for my lovely husband? He should be relieved, as the only other thing I could think of that wasn't obscenely expensive was a Cartier Trinity, so this will definitely save him some $!
 
@tyty333 Thank you! Highly recommend them! Just a little blingier than studs but definitely dainty, light weight, comfortable. Who knew .24 ctw could look so lovely?!

@wildcat03 haha you and your husband will be happy! They really are reasonably priced for the quality. A lot of joy for not a ton of bucks for sure.
 
They look gorgeous on you. Congratulations!!
 
Re :appl: ally pretty!!!
 
very pretty and sparkly!!
 
They look perfect on you, and I like the ease and extra protection of leverbacks. Hmm, I've been considering diamond studs but maybe I should rethink and go for huggies instead.
 
A lovely touch of sparkle!! :appl:
 
Love those, they are beautiful on you!!
 
Like these so much I just ordered a pair :wall: !! For all others that need enabling there's a 10% coupon right now :wavey: :o
 
They look beautiful on you! I have a pair also and love them. They're so delicate and sparkly!
 
Very, very pretty! Enjoy them! :love: :appl:
 
So chic!!
 
Ooh love these earrings! So pretty and fresh and delicate yet making a statement. Perfectly blingy and beautiful on your ears! :love:

Im loving them too, thank you :)
 
My recommendation is don't sleep in them. When you sleep in your earrings there is a chance you will stretch your earlobes and piercing and as one gets older believe me that is not something you want to happen. It is easy enough to remove before sleep and put back in the next day IMO. SO unless you have an issue with being able to easily remove them and put on again I would caution against sleeping in them. I know many people do sleep in their earrings but as I said I feel you will eventually develop stretched out piercings and lobes if you do this indefinitely. Not a good look.

SOLD! Wow okay, no sleeping EEK. I do sleep in my baby wee studs but they are bezels, so fairly safe bet I think.
 
ooh I like! I'm a yellow gold lover myself. What is the size of the melee, tcw?
 
I seriously just ordered these in WG due to this post. Thanks for sharing pics! I cannot wait to get them. They look like just enough bling for every day wear. And safe enough that I can wear to the barn and ride my horse without fear of them coming off for some reason. YAY!!!! :)

.02 each, 6 per earring, so .24 ctw for the pair! I like white/platinum too, but for whatever reason prefer YG for my everyday stuff and white for fancy nights.

Ahhh!!! Darn it :( Thankfully I used the 10% coupon otherwise I'd probably cry.
 
No I don't sleep in mine. I actually had to send them back to fix the latch. They're so delicate, you have to be very careful with them. I love the way the latch is designed though. I feel like they're so much more secure than the ones that just click together
 
Beautiful pair of huggies! :appl:
