I have received many compliments on these earrings.  Amazon did it again!  These earrings are great for everyday as well as evening wear.  They are so light that I don't even know they are on my ears.  The only problem I have with them (and it is not because they weren't advertised correctly) is that they have fish hook backs which can come off the ear without you noticing it.  I put a backing on so that they can't come off.  but you do have to be careful with plain fish hook backings as you can loose the earrings easily.
