I still like it, but it looks better layered than completely on its own. The design is still cute, especially the shell detail, but it is not a heavy or super dramatic piece. The shape shows nicely when hair is tucked back. I would recommend it if you like softer jewelry details.
The detail is subtle at first, then catches the light when you move. The gold tone looks clean and the shell detail gives it enough detail. The pair gives a polished look without feeling too formal. I would wear it more for everyday styling than for something very formal.
This one photographs nicely and looks polished on. I especially like the shell detail; it makes the earrings feel more personal without being too much. They feel light enough for a few hours of wear. It has been easiest to wear with vacation outfits and summer looks.
