Hello earrings!

  You may remember back in July (my very first post), I mentioned that I was thinking about getting my ears pierced. Well here, nearly 9 months later, I have actually done it! I did it at Claire's. I confess I was slightly apprehensive about the Claire's ear piercing, because I have heard a lot of myths about lack of sterilisation etc., but actually the woman seemed very competent and I felt in safe hands. 

  I got the 3mm 9 carat gold bobble with rhodium around it (to make it look silver).

  In terms of pain, it was very minimal, and so fast you hardly noticed it. My ears have ached a bit since, but altogether not bad. For cleaning, you have to soak a cotton pad in this lotion and clean your ear 3 times a day. After doing that, you have to turn it 180 degrees to prevent it embedding in your ear. 

  For some reason, a while ago, a friend gave me this set of earrings from Accessorize. I'm not entirely sure why because I didn't have my ears pierced at that point, but they will be useful soon when I can wear whichever earrings I want.

Here are a couple of earrings that I have got my eye on, now that I am able to shop for them. 

Byee! Love lucy xxx
