I will measure them and get back to you but I promise they are definately the ones because I told the woman at the counter how they were in Lipstick Jungle and she said she never watched it but that was interesting b/c the studios come in all the time to pick out a bunch of stuff but never say what shows they will be on. Also, Victory is shown wearing other Betsey Johnson pieces according to "as seen on". They are definately costume but much better quality than the Tarino ones. They are much heavier and more substantial looking. Nevertheless, I will measure them tonight and get back to you but If I were you I would just buy them b/c they are only $30 and they are selling out FAST! As I said, they're sold out at Betsey Johnson and Bloomingdales
 
the betsey johnson earrings are very similar. in the pics in the original post, victory's earrings don't look like the betsey johnson earrings, though. they don't have the filigree bead caps and it looks like the earring post is pave stones, not one large stone like BJ's earrings. :confused1:
 
I threw these together a little while ago. :sweatdrop: These are made with 12mm faux pearls, since I couldn't find them with good enough quality in any bigger sizes. I did get 16mm pearls from an online beading site, but the quality was hideous. They're being returned for a refund. I did find 20mm and 22mm faux pearls, which have been ordered and are on their way to me!! :yahoo: I can't wait!!

They're not big enough right now, but once I get the bigger pearls in, I'll be posting more pictures! :yes: Stay tuned! :smile1:

DH said "holy moly! those are honkers! i can see them clear as day and i never notice your jewelry!"

i think the 12mm is great for wearing to work. the 20mm is great for going out. the 22mm is great when you want to make a bold, dramatic statement! :supacool:
 
Hi there,

Wow, this is so fantastic! I am so thankful for the replies you gave the girl who was after the pearl earrings from Lipstick Jungle. The earrings Blingaholic posted are absolutely beautiful. How can I get my hands on them? I am new to this website and not sure how it works. I wonder if Blingaholic can contact me on [email protected] to organise payment etc.

Many thanks,

Genevieve Considine
