These earrings are what I was hoping for when I ordered these similar earrings:&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/SCER035-Sterling-Silver-Sensational-Clear-AB-Crystal-Earrings-Made-with-Swarovski-Elements/dp/B000B6CSIU/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">SCER035 Sterling Silver Sensational Clear AB Crystal Earrings Made with Swarovski Elements</a>, which turned out to be yellow. In other ways, these two pairs of earrings are almost identical.

-They are comfortable enough to sleep in, very lightweight, and the material doesn't irritate my skin as sometimes happens.
-They are very shiny and sparkly, and the colors seem to shift from blue to purple, but usually they are blue in the middle and purple around the edges, as seen in the picture. They catch the light very well.
-If sunlight hits them right, they can make tiny rainbows.
-Their backs are shiny silver.

I'm very pleased with these earrings, and wish I had ordered them first, though the other earrings are nice, too. I just much prefer purple and blue to yellow and orange.
