Earrings: Classic Silver (2008 - )

[green chile supergirl]

This is the set you get when you have your doll's ears pierced. For $14, you get the ear piercing service, piercing care sheet, 3 pairs of studs, and 3 pairs of dangles. I think it's a deal, particularly because there are 12 potential combinations, if you wear the same in both ears. I think that means there are 144 possible combinations if you wear different ones in each year, but it's been a long time since I did permutation in math class!

I personally didn't care much for the heart studs. I also though the hoops were a little big- plus, the way the dolls ears go, the hoops look a bit like they're sideways. However, these are both personal preferences and you may feel differently.

The only real drawback to these earrings is where to store them. When you get them, the dangles are attached to the card w/ a thin plastic strand. I'm keeping mine in a teeny ziploc baggie now, but these are definitely something that can be easily lost.

Overall: A+

FYI, if you ask very nicely at the hair salon, you may be able to buy just the earrings for $7

My friend was able to get a set for me just by asking, though the staff said they're really not supposed to sell them separately.

I got this set with my new doll, #14, and it's all really cute and nice. My only complaint is that the studs are really hard to get in and out of her ears! And then I'm afraid of snapping them when I take them out. Does it get easier over time?

In my experience it does get easier over time, probably because the holes adjust to the actual size of the earrings.

I think these are adorable and there are so many different combinations that I haven't felt the need to buy a different earring set yet. I also think the hoops look awkward if you pull their hair back, but IMO if the hair covers the hoops a little it's harder to tell that they go a little sideways. My mom likes the hoops the best because it's easier to see that the doll is wearing earrings whereas the dangles are small and often can't be seen if the doll has her hair down. My favorite are the star dangles because I have a pair like that and they are my favorite earrings!

My only gripe is that you have to get this with each doll whose ears are pierced. I had two dolls' ears pierced, Kit and Kat. While I like that they can have matching earrings I also wouldn't have minded them sharing a set and saving a few $ because there are enough studs to do so.

I also wish the box maybe had a snap closure or something like that so you could put the earrings back in the box. I'm always afraid I'm going to lose them.

I got this set with my doll and I love it!

To answer your question green chile supergirl (above):
I store the earrings in the bottom of the box under the cardboard you put the studs in. plus I made a whole bunch of dangles with my beads which I store there, too.

These earrings are awfully cute. This is a good introductory earring set. I love the hoops because I'm a big hoop earring fan. I like to put the star studs with the the hoops and then the star dangles hanging from the hoops.
