Chunky Earrings — who ever thought they’d come back?  They certainly bring back memories for me, along with the vests and big hair of the 80′s.  And yet when a friend gave me her whole collection, I discovered — they’re vintage!

So guess what’s up for auction this week?  You guessed it, some vintage clip on earrings in that funky chunky style.  Pictured here is my favorite pair– because even though I never actually wear them,  I love rhinestones! These 3+ inch long sparkly things are one heck of a statement, I can tell you that much.

Also there are a pair of screwbacks with a lovely moss green stone, and a whole lot of those big old chunky style clip ons.  

There will be more auctions of coins and other good stuff coming up, so visit the eBay store often this week!

Meanwhile for your enjoyment, I did a little research on some fun articles across the web about funky 80′s style. Be sure to read the second one listed– “Hooker Earring Wednesday” sounds like it could be fun!
