I found these earrings tucked away at the back of my jewelry box. They were a gift, and while they are pretty, there was a time I felt they were just too big and made too much of a statement. It turns out I have grown into the idea of wearing bigger earrings, which is often the case with women. I guess I’m getting bolder, not older!
