And if you do, where do you normally buy your flat back earrings from?

I have this kind of thing and like really small earrings though I'm quite bored with what I have now and looking for some ideas!

Maria Tash & BVLA are gorgeous but £££
More affordable are Laura Bond, Astrid & Miyu. Etsy will have loads but my favourite Etsy shop is Lunear.

Love the look hate that it's being called a 'curated ear'. Grin

As though it belongs in a glass case in an exhibition.

Bunboo jewellery also on Etsy have some nice bits. Really fast delivery too.

Curated ear? ConfusedGrin Well it looks quite nice in that picture, if that's what it's called!

Exactly this!

Love a 'curated ear' and I look at Tada & Toy website for inspiration although the jewellery is ££ Grin

Herecomesthesun70 · 02/08/2021 22:22

Doesn't it just mean having lots of random earrings in both your ears?🤷🏼‍♀️

Needapoodle · 02/08/2021 22:25

A curated ear I've heard it all now!

goddessofmischief · 02/08/2021 22:29

"Curated ear" Grin I'd love to hear how people would describe mine. There's more piercings than ear on both sides, about 40. I do find it hilarious when I carefully tuck my hair behind an ear. Instant shock reaction. Curated... for a few cutesy carefully placed studs Grin
Are we going to curate skin for tattoos next? You could bind a book with mine!

RampantIvy · 02/08/2021 22:34

Why has the word "curated" become so popular?
A curator works in a museum.

AnyFucker · 02/08/2021 22:36

What are you talking about ?

Hi I have earrings from both Maria Tash and Laura Bond Clearly different price points. Love a curated ear
MapleMay11 · 02/08/2021 22:55

Love the look - Maria Tash.

AleynEivlys · 02/08/2021 23:00

Yes! I've been busily piercing mine for almost a year now. I get nearly all of my stuff from Etsy. Can't justify the price of higher end stuff like Maria Tash unfortunately, though there are indeed some beautiful pieces.

(I've only had the rook a month which is why it is still sporting a titanium barbell. Hate how bare my right ear looks!)

I love it and wanted to do it. Love Maria Tash for inspo.

I just don't think it'll suit my big ears

FadoFado · 02/08/2021 23:06

Maria Tash earrings are pretty but seriously overpriced.

Ohhelppp · 02/08/2021 23:09

Ummm… I only have one extra piercing on one ear but it needs a flat back. I just buy any old earring and bend the post with pliers so it’s like a nose stud Grin

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 02/08/2021 23:11

I'm old, we all had curated ears in the 80s, who knew ?Grin

GoodbyePorpoiseSpit · 02/08/2021 23:16

So I like a curated ear and I don’t mind the term either Grin
Recently been looking at Monica vinader who have started doing Maria Tash styling except they call it.... wait for it...”Ear Party”

“Curated ear”?! Am I old? Museums are curated, ears are not.

I am old, aren’t I?!

RoseyCake · 03/08/2021 06:40

Never hear of it being called a curated ear?

You could try
H&m
Accessorize
Lovissa
Pinch and fold

RoseyCake · 03/08/2021 06:41

@aleyneivlys I like your set up!

alwayscrashinginthesamecar1 · 03/08/2021 06:44

The what now?

SpeckledyHen · 03/08/2021 07:15

No , it turns my stomach . Wish I had never opened the thread to see what a curated ear was!

Presuming this is like ‘the lip’? That you do actually have 2 ears?

AleynEivlys · 03/08/2021 07:53

Thanks @RoseyCake, though it is far from finished! I wish they didn't take so long to heal. 😒
