I'm not usually a fan of the hoop style or overly 'blingy' jewellery, so when I was given the opportunity to try these I planned to focus on quality, but was surprised to love them! The hoop is on the thick 'chunky' side, so they look especially nice if you're plus size and aren't too delicate or flimsy and the Cubic Zirconia really does give a nice sparkle on these.

They are very easy to open and close, but when closed just have a small click, so do be careful. I felt they weren't closed right, pushed them too far and too hard and bent one of the wires. Luckily they are easy to bend back into place, but please take care not to keep pushing once you hear that click into place, or you could damage the earrings.

Good construction and didn't turn my ears green or cause any issues. They do dangle and have some small amount of movement, but it depends on the size of your earlobes. I have small earlobes and I liked how they had just a little bit of a swing to them so they didn't look too 'stiff'.

********************************************
Pros
+ Lots of sparkle, the light really bounces off the CZ
+ Suit plus size quite well.
+ Fit well with a little movement.
+ Don't turn the skin green or cause sensitivity with non-allergic ears.

Cons
- Closing mechanism is delicate and easy to damage if you push too hard.

I'll definitely wear these again, but I would recommend them for a more formal or high casual occasion.
