Silver Snake Earrings


I was just looking through earrings on ebay and I stumbled upon these cool earrings. I wasn't really looking for these types of earrings but now that I saw them, I want them! Haha impulsive buy, I guess, but they were too cool to pass up. Plus, they were cheap anyway. I bought them along with my gold earrings with a cuff and chain.


Seller: joyaria
price: $0.99

Shipping took a while. Even though I ordered them the same day as my gold earrings with a cuff and chain, they came much later. They were small and fit inside a tiny envelope that is lined with bubble wrap. It can fit in any mailbox.


These are made of a silver metal. It does wrap nicely around the ear and stays on. My only worry is that the bottom part of the tail may fall off and I won't even notice because it doesn't seem very secure. Also, I bought two of them, one for each ear. However, both face the same direction (silly me, I should have known) so they look and are worn a little differently on each ear. So on the left is my left ear and on the right is my right ear. See how it wraps around the ears differently? But otherwise, I think they look awesome!

Gold Chain Earring with Cartilage Cuff

I've been seeing these types of earrings around a lot and I've wanted to get one myself. I think they look so cool. I want it cheap, of course, because I'm stingy with my money. Also, because I don't wear earrings much because of school. I don't want to spend a lot of money on something I'll barely use.


Bought from: ebay
Seller: hittime_hk
Price: $0.99






As with all ebay things, it takes a while to arrive. I guess it came in about 3 weeks. The price is 99 cents each. I bought two, one for each ear, so it was $1.98 total. Free shipping.




So the cuff is really big and kind of loose. I had to bend the metal to make it tighter so that it won't fall off. It looks really nice though. Definitely work well with hair tied back or in a nice high ponytail :)

Fake Gauges & Cartilage Cuff

I love the look of the white bone gauges ever since a friend of mine was showing me the ones that she had a while back. I thought they were so beautiful. Most people I saw with gauges had the plastic ones and that didn't appeal to me but the bone and wood ones she was showing me were just gorgeous. I kind of wanted them but having a large gaping hole in my ear didn't really appeal to me. When I found out you could fake it, I was totally sold.


These are made of white bone. The tiny part for your ear are actually a little bit bigger than a normal earring but it's not overly huge. I bought this from ebay. I don't remember how much it is and who the seller is. I bought this a while ago but I still love it.

Another type of accessory I like is the ear cuff thing. I had thought before of getting a cartilage piercing but then I'd have to clean it and care for it for a while and if I forget to wear the earring, it can quickly close up. That's just a lot of hassle. So I figured I could fake that too.


I bought this on ebay. I don't remember who the seller is and how much I bought this for. I do remember that it did not come as a pair. I had to buy two of them to make a pair and I remember it wasn't as cheap as I had hoped it could be. It's very pretty. At first, it was a little big. I had to get some pliers and squeeze it a bit to make it smaller for my, I guess skinny, ear.


I like to wear them together when my hair is tied back or up in a ponytail. After all, they deserve to be seen :)
