The wordsclip-on earringsmight bring to mind your mother’s door knockers or chandeliers. But over the past few years, we’ve seen the return ofDynasty-era styles (say, those fromHeaven Mayhem), and lately there seem to be evenmoreclip-ons in every style (from the referential to the irreverent, likeShrimp’s shrimp) on the scene. So varied is the new batch of clip-ons that a 2018 “Ask the Strategist” post aboutclip-onsseems, well, old (this was when Marni cornered the market). With that in mind, I took to the internet to find some very appealing clip-ons to wear (whether your ears are pierced or not) for all tastes, including ones with Hermès cloisonné and others that are odes to grocery-store produce.
