So, what type of earrings do you wear and where do you typically buy them?

I love clipon or screw post earrings, well because I don't have pierced ears and I just find the very attractive... I own about 70 pair, most of which I acquired on Ebay... In lots of 10+ and have paid typically less that a dollar a piece for them! Plus I also find a lot it flea markets, estate sales, and antique shops... Even bought a few from walmart...... ohhh and had some custome made for me buy a friend in FL..

Of the 70 pair about a dozen are dangly... My favorite pairs are my multi tiered aquamarine pair and my latest purchase, a pair of antique brass and jade green longish teardrops... From ebay and a local antique store, respectively..

So what's on your lobes??

Pierced Earrings

I wear clips, and get them from various places:

Amerimark Windsor Collection through their website;

Clearance areas of other websites (National, Lane Bryant, Blair, etc.);

dollar stores;

rummage sales;

Walmart, Target, Avenue, Penney, Bonton, Kohl sales;

gifts from my loving, supporting wife.

I wear clip ons, only because my company doesn't allow men to wear earrings. As soon as I can find a loophole in company policy, I'm getting my ears pierced.

I have clip on earings. I find them hard to buy with a style that I like. I have bought off ebay but the choice is very limited in Australia and will probably have to buy off shore as there is a much bigger choice of styles. I look forward to the day (when my son is older) that I can get my ears pierced.

Pierced studs most of the time. To and from work, I may wear various dangles. At work and en homme, its various studs. En femme, I usually go with hoops or dangles.

Got my ears pierced a little over a year ago. Prior to that event, I wore clip-ons. You can get little doodads that let you convert pierced style earrings to clip-ons.

Most of my earrings have come from WalMart or Claire's.

Love,

Alana

I wear clip-ons and I do like Alana says, I have the "converters" so I can wear some of SL's ear rings also. They really do a good job. I have many pair of clip ons but it seems the really nice ones are for pierced ears but with the adapters, I don't need no more holes in my body!
Love,
Virginia

So where do you buy these converters? I have taken old clipons that were either pretty ugly or damaged and used parts off them to convert pierced earrings... But converters sound easier than that!!

Karren -

I bought Virginia's clip on earring converters at Bealls (in FL) under the name "EarWare". They had the "Dangle Clip Converters" as well as the "Adhesive Clip Converters," and they were $2.00/pair for either style in gold or silver. I could not find them at Bealls' website (nor a Google search under that name), although Bealls does have a great selection of clip on earrings at their stores (regular and outlet) - and shopping there is a great experience!

I found these websites (and more) by doing a Google search for 'clip on earring converters':

Thanks, SL.... I'll have to get some.

These are the converters I use:

They are $7.95 for a set of 6 pairs, choice of goldtone or silvertone.

Both my ears have been pierced since the mid 1980's (wow, it's been almost twenty years now!) and I wear either gold studs or small gold hoops most of the time. As Kathy, I wear larger gold earrings. Not so many dangly ones, mostly just bright and shiny gold ones.

I'm really glad I saw this post. I've been wanting pierced earings but my SO does not want that. Thinks I will look gay. I didn't care, still wanting them and she says I could get one then later, after she got used to it, get the other pierced. Baby Steps....

Earing converters will do in the meantime. Have to go shopping again!

Karren:
Gosh I haven't seen a post screw ear ring since my early teens, thats all my mother had.

wore clips...got tired of the pain, and now am pierced.

Love them that way! Most of the time I wear small studs of small hoops, but also love the danglers!
