New OOTD - Keeping It Classic

Keeping things classic today & building my outfit around these stunning pearl earrings from Eternal Collection.






Now despite having pierced ears, I was keen to try these clip on earrings as these days I very rarely wear large earrings.  This is due to the fact that many years ago an old hairdresser caught their comb in my earring & ripped the hole in one of my ears so I'm now careful not to wear earrings that are too heavy to avoid causing any more damage!

I must admit it's been years since I last wore a pair of clip ons & I can still remember the pain as you took said clip ons off but did you know that you can adjust clip ons to make them more comfortable?  No neither did I (see here to learn how).  So when Eternal Collection got in touch I couldn't resist these beauties.  As a lover of pearls I've been contemplating ordering some navy pearl beads to make some jewellery for myself so as soon as I saw these with the cubic zirconia stones I knew I'd have to give them a go.

I just love this design of earring a real classic & the pearl is the perfect size (10mm in diameter).




And I have to say the appearance of said earrings looks far more expensive than the £15 that they cost.  They really would make a stunning gift & I just know I'm going to be wearing these beauties for many years to come.  As for comfort levels well they weren't too bad at all, at first it felt a bit strange but it was surprising how quickly I forgot I was wearing clip ons.




So I've decided to stick with blue to compliment the earrings & I'm wearing navy with denim & cream & adding a bit of interest with my Boden sparkly flats for a quick trip to the garden centre then fingers crossed a quiet afternoon on the sofa....I still haven't read a page of my book yet & I promised myself this weekend I'd get lost in my book.

So have you tried clip on earrings recently?  If not would you be tempted to or does the pain from years ago put you off?  I'd love to hear your thoughts.
