The star shaped you earrings are absolutely gorgeous, and I was very excited to receive them since I already own the U shaped earrings with diamonds on them. I was a little disappointed to find that they are threaded differently. The diamond ones were easier to put on them the stars. The hoop for the diamond ones is internally threaded so the “screw” is on the diamond piece. The star u-hoops have the internal threaded on the star end, making it much harder for me to attach. That said, if I were planning to wear the earrings on a regular basis, it would be worth it. I plan to use them on more of a rotation so I would be taking them in and out a lot.
