eveglassOkay, it's time for another round of "help Julie choose!"
Since my post earrings are still annoying me, at least in my right ear, I've decided it's time to switch to something a) titanium, and b) without a backing.
So far I'm looking at a ring with a clear gem or a smooth segment ring. Both are G23 surgical titanium. For both, I'd be looking at 1.2 mm thickness (about 16 gauge) and 8 mm diameter. They're essentially the same price (a $1 difference per ring).
Please note that these would be my "everyday" earrings, the earrings I'd want to wear just to keep my holes open. So they'd have to go with just about all my everyday clothes.
So... does anyone have a preference between these two, aesthetically? Would there be any difference in terms of how they wear over time? Anyone try one style or the other?
