We received the Blue Multi Gemstone Hoops from Stunning Details’ Earring Collection. It is made of 14k gold fill hoops adorned with 3 varying sizes of gemstones including blue lapis, blue chalcedony quartz, and blue topaz.
If you love blue gemstones, you will truly adore this piece. The blue lapis, the largest gemstone which also happens to be the darkest is absolutely striking. The photograph above is an excellent representation of the true colors of the stones. One characteristic that does not come through in the photograph is the color variation of the blue lapis. It’s even more gorgeous in person because it’s not one solid color, it has varying shades of blue. In a word, it's stunning.
It's also very light on the ears, even with 3 gemstones. You won't have to worry about it pulling and tugging at your ear lobes.
The hoop is about an inch long and the longest gemstone is also about an inch long. In its entirety, it's large enough to be noticeable, yet small enough to be dainty. It's classic enough to be worn at the office and hip enough to be worn on a night out. Wear it with a simple dress like this milky white strap dress from Velvet by Graham & Spencer and you’ll see the color of the earrings pop. It's such a fabulous combination, you must give it a try!
With all the things I like about this earring, the one I love the best is that there’s more than one way to wear it, in fact, there are so many ways to wear it. The 3 gemstones are all removable so you can wear the hoop by itself, or you can wear just one of the gemstones, or a combination of any two. How cool is that! If my math is working correctly, that's eight earrings in one. Now that's a bargain - you better go get one or should I say, get 8 in 1!
