These earrings are super sparkly with color changing glitter twinkling like stars. The more opaque silver mica areas have a nice shimmer. They could be worn with something dressy and just as easily with a pair of blue jeans and would be perfect 4th of July accessories. The shapes are 1 and 1/2 inches long and 1 inch wide at its widest point. They are extremely light-weight and would be comfortable for all day wear and have stainless steel fish hook ear wires for added comfort.
