Help me please - hoop earrings for 73 yr old mum, online, delivery for christmas

Pretty please. With sugar on top?

I asked dad weeks ago if he needed me to order anything for them, then this evening mum (who has dementia) has decided that she wants a present from him, and he needs me to get her earrings. Hoop as she fiddles with butterfly backs and loses them.

Budget up to £400. Not too big, can be gold/rose gold or a mixture. I'll need to order online.

I'll be eternally grateful

Have a look at QVC. If you order by midnight they guarantee xmas delivery. Some expensive brands.

Thanks, I hadn't thought of them!

Argos? Is that rubbish?

CMOTDibbler · 20/12/2014 19:08

Thought I'd hit the jackpot on QVC with some clogagh ones like a ring she has, but alas a butterfly back.

I'll try Argos now!

Look on Amazon, they sell masses of jewellery on there and you can prob still pay for special delivery

Nightboattocairo · 20/12/2014 19:31

Not on the high street? They may still be guaranteeing delivery, not sure.

CMOTDibbler · 20/12/2014 19:51

Still drawing a blank tbh.

Thank you for the ideas though, its helping me to stop panicking!

Links?
Selfridges/Fenwicks/John Lewis?

John Lewis might be able to deliver to a local Waitrose in time.

Thanks all, I eventually found some at Goldsmiths, and they were delivered today and dad is pleased with them, which is a result
