Emily Elizabeth Jewelry Punk Love Stud Earrings

$48.00 at Max & Chloe

Call me crazy, but I've always been inspired by ladies who are brave enough to wear mismatched earrings. When it works - it really works and there's no formula for recreating the look. It's one of those mystical, magical style intersections that just happens.

When I discovered Emily Elizabeth's Punk Love mismatched stud earrings, I was absolutely elated. Designer Emily Elizabeth Kolins makes it effortless to wear mismatched earrings. I'm absolutely head over heels for these earrings. They feel like my special style secret every time I wear them.

While I still haven't been brave enough to try to mismatch earrings from within my own collection, the Punk Love studs have definitely filled this Gemini-esq style void (for now).

Have you ever worn mismatched earrings? I'd love to hear how you braved this style challenge!

Gorjana Horseshoe Studs

I'm not sure whether it's my equestrian past from Arkansas that's subconsciously sneaking up on me or I'm feeling the need for an extra bit of luck, but I can't get the thought of a darling pair of horseshoe stud earrings out of my mind.

The instant I saw these Gorjana Horseshoe Studs, I instantly knew they belonged on my ears. With brushed 18k gold, these studs are 1/2" an inch wide, which just happens to be just about the perfect size for a pair of studs.

Superstition says that you should always keep the ends of a horseshoe pointed up so your luck doesn't run out - keep those ends up, ladies!
