One of the posts came bent. It was easy enough to straighten with a pair of pliers, but there's no reason it should have been bent with the way it was packaged.

The posts are also way too long. They touch my neck, and if anything touches my earlobe, they stab into me.

And the jewelry looks gaudy. If you have small earlobes like me, they dwarf them. The stones look like fake, cloudy plastic in any sort of light. I've had another pair of cz earrings that sparkled and were clear, so I'm certain this is not how all fake diamonds look.

I'm chalking it up to wasting money on the hit and miss of ordering online, but I'm very disappointed that these were as terrible as they are with how good the reviews were. I'd planned to order two more sets from this same brand, but am now skeptical that all their product is as low-quality as this pair turned out to be.

EDIT: I'm bumping the review down to one star. I wore these for a bit and really tried to like them, but it turns out I'm allergic to whatever metal this is. I'm not allergic to silver. These have reopened my 8 month old piercings, and it's extremely painful and disappointing to have to wait until they heal up to be able to branch out again with other earrings. Don't buy these.
