News Flash: Cool Clip-On Earrings Do Exist

Getting your ears pierced is a rite of passage during middle school. But some of us opted out of this momentous occasion or the holes somehow closed over time no matter how many times you pierced them. If your ears are hole-free, you’re probably frustrated that all those stylish earrings models wear on the runways are out of reach. You can always try to replicate the look with clip-on earrings, but those clips are notoriously hard on your earlobes. Well, times have (finally) changed. Clip-on earrings are back and these aren’t those obvious outsize versions your mother used to wear in the 80s. Although, there are tons of vintage options available. Check out online vintage mecca Lysis for some truly striking pairs from the past. The ones that remain after we loaded up our carts, at least. From Saint Laurent to Balmain to Lanvin, almost every brand is reimagining the clip-on format. Which means there are plenty of fresh fashion-forward picks. We’re talking statement colored stones, chunky danglers, faux pearl-accented stunners and resin wonders. There really is something for everyone. And at every price point. We even found a set under $20. Scroll down for proof that cool clip-on earrings that won’t kill your lobes aren’t a fashion myth.
