Customer Reviews
I used to know a girl who often made a statement with her outfits and she took to putting on red earrings.
She was called Amanda and, when we became best pals, I made the decision to put them on myself. I still always like to show off with them a bit when I put on the the appropriate outfit.
It makes me really feel kind of special.
Last time that I went out shopping for earrings I started thinking about when they first came in.. I found some fascinating things on the internet that I will be able to share with the girl behind the counter next time.I will tell the girl behind the counter a few fascinating facts I noticed on Wikipedia next time I see her. Since the start of civilisation, using some form of band as a method of adorning the body was the purpose of piercing of the ears
It was originally the men who used them and was especially favored by soldiers and usually stood for some personal achievement in battle.
Among the earliest that may still be found are on images of the historic soldiers from Persia around the walls of the palace of Persopolis. They are also mentioned in the bible when Moses is up the mountain and Aaron asks the rebelling Israelites to give their earrings to him so that he can build a statue of a god on their behalf.
The first thing that has to be decided the very first time that you need to get a pair of earrings is whether or not you want to have pierced ears. If you decide you don’t, you could get them done afterwards however if you have them pierced today, they are going to be that way for the rest of your life.
The three most widely used designs of pierced earrings are: -
stud earrings – these are normally small and are kept on your ears by a bar through the ear and a fastener on the back.
hoop earrings – possibly these are what gave the earring its name originally as they look exactly like a ring.
They can be either semi-circular or circiular in shape and are usually fastened by sliding one end into a tiny tube at the other end. They can be as large or small as you need.
dangle earrings – these sorts are the types which hang down from your ear and you can find them very short or reach right down to the neck.
Needless to say, you are not restricted to just wearing one type each time and in the present day people often put on one or two all at once. I must speak to Amanda once more as we haven’t met up for quite a while now. I am wondering whether she continues to wear the red earrings.
