Take it from a fashion girl: no outfit is complete without a bit of jewelry as the finishing touch. Classic pieces can hold sentimental value and make the perfect thoughtful gift, while statement bling can instantly jazz up an otherwise simple outfit.
And while I love a drop earring, lately, I’ve needed a break from my heftier dangles. They can be uncomfortable when wearing headphones during my commute, weigh on my ears and stretch out my lobes. Not to mention, I’ve lost more earringbacks than I can count at this point.
So, I took my search to Amazon, scouring the retail giant for an affordable and lightweight option to give my poor, tired ears some reprieve. The criteria: simple enough to wear with anything in my closet, but modern and unique enough to stand out from the hoop earrings I already own. When I came across this highly-rated pair of two-toned earrings from an editor-loved brand, I knew I had struck gold (and silver!).

What are the Pavoi 14K Two-Toned Convertible Link Earrings?
The Pavoi 14K Two-Toned Convertible Link Earrings are an everyday pair of dangle earrings that have over 3,000 perfect five-star ratings and a 4.2-star average rating on Amazon. They ring up at less than $15 and recently skyrocketed to the top of Amazon's bestsellers list in the Women's Drop & Dangle Earrings category.
I'm partial to the two-toned option that matches all of my gold and silver jewelry and plays into the mixed metal trend that's been popular recently. But these earrings are also available in plain white gold, yellow gold and rose gold colors, as well as cubic zirconia-studded and rope-textured options for some added sparkle and variety.
Why I like the Pavoi 14K Two-Toned Convertible Link Earrings
They're so lightweight, I can wear them all day, every day — without tiring or stretching out my lobes.
According to the brand, they’re made from high-quality plated sterling silver that I’ve found doesn’t turn green or irritate my sensitive ears. I’ve had a tragic history of my ear piercings getting swollen, infected, and even closing up after wearing cheap earrings in the past, but, this superior pair doesn’t hurt to wear or cause any side effects in my experience.
The convertible feature makes changing up my style so easy. I feel like I essentially got two pairs of earrings for the price of one since you can wear them as dangle earrings or remove the bottom link for a more simple hoop that hugs the lobe. Plus, since I have a few piercings on my earlobes, I sometimes even wear them two ways on the same ear — it’s sort of like a no-brainer, matching “ear stack.”
I think their design is genius. I'm guilty of losing an earring back or two, but that's never an issue with these huggie earrings. Gone are the days of searching the floor for a fallen earring back or "borrowing" a back from another pair in my jewelry box. With these earrings, I simply snap the post securely into place in the attached back until I hear a satisfying click. Then, they won't budge!
What to consider
Due to the popularity of these earrings, note that select color options are currently experiencing shipping delays. Right now, the two-toned earrings have a shipping notice starting in March.
Having worn these earrings everywhere, from the office and nice restaurants to just lounging at home, it's safe to say these have earned a permanent place in my everyday routine. And I'm not the only one — Amazon reviewers are gushing about their versatility and value.
"I was on a 2 week trip and did not take them off. No tarnish whatsoever," raves one verified reviewer. “I can’t believe the price."
While most ratings are favorable, some reviewers note that the post can bend out of shape, making it difficult to clasp and unclasp the earrings. The brand explains that the post is made from a pliable sterling silver material, so if it gets crooked, you can simply bend the post back into shape with your fingers to realign it with the clasp. Problem solved!
Each morning, I click these earrings into place, and they stay comfortably and securely in my ears all day long. Affordable, elevated and lightweight, I'm excited to have them as a staple in my jewelry box for years to come.
