[Meme] 30-Day Earrings: Day 12 & 13
DAY 01 02 03 04&05 06 07&08 09&10 11
DAY 12: LEAST WORN EARRINGS
Dimensions (not including hooks): 1.7cm x 3.8cm
Gold-tone alloy painted with ivory-hued enamel and bling-for-eyes. Short of just taking a messy-pile-of-studs photos, these I've really only worn twice I think. They were a Christmas gift from Inaho two years back. She even had me approve of them before purchasing them lol. They use to have these huge-ass faux pears at the bottom of the hooks, but those hooks were tarnishing and so I switched out the hooks. They're cute, a tad bit big, but I enjoy wearing them whenever I do. The only real reason why I don't wear them as often is that they don't really fit my current standard default attire. Not exactly business casual, these earrings.

DAY 13: NEVER WORN/YET TO BE WORN EARRINGS
Dimensions 2.6cm x 2cm
Enamel and bling. I bought these because the seller listed them as "Angry Bird" earrings. Obviously, they're not, but they still looked extraordinarily cute in the photos so I went ahead with my purchase. And they are exquisite--the photos don't lie--but what the photos don't show is the actual size. They're huge. The seller hadn't listed the dimensions of the studs, nor did he/she photograph them near a point of reference object. So They're approximately 3/4 of a quarter (25 cents coin) in size, and nobody's ear lobe is nearly that big. Tried one on after they arrived and decided, nope, this is awkward as hell and haven't bothered wearing them out since. They do look like they'd make for excellent brooches though. orz
