Sunday Brunch: Stud Earrings (and the Unpierced Equivalent!)

September 13, 2020

Dear friends,

This week's newsletter is all about stud earrings! 100% approved for wearing with your mask, or around the house for an easy and comfortable touch of something special. And we also have some options for our unpierced friends- just be extra careful not to lose those clip-ons and screwbacks!

At the end of the email we've included some of our favorite tips for making sure our earrings stay put in this age of masks (and before long we'll be adding scarves and earmuffs to the mix too, for goodness sake!)

It feels like all our New York friends are coming back from their summers away (welcome back, we missed you!) so for this week's brunch it's gotta be a bagel and a schmear, cause what's more NY than that?

Whether you prefer studs or statement earrings, here are some tips to not lose your favorite pair if you're taking a mask on and off all day:

Double up on backings. Add a rubber stopper to your post and french wire earrings to keep them from slipping out if they get pulled.
Avoid hoops with gaps. Open hoops will hook the ear loops on masks, so unless you are planning to hang your mask off of them, try to steer clear!
Try eyelash glue. Especially for non-pierced pairs, a dot of eyelash glue can help keep earrings in place.
Mind the loops! When putting a mask on and off, I always run my finger around the inside edge of the loops to make sure my earrings are clear and my hair doesn't get tangled into anything. It has saved me from a couple of tragic earrings accidents!

Have a wonderful Sunday, look forward to being in your inbox again next week!

Stylishly yours,

Lara and the team
