Bamboo hoops : a big comeback to the 80's

Best known to be the it accessory of the 80's, Bamboo hoops are again very popular and trendy. Those big earrings-usually gold and called door knockers earrings -originated from the African-American youth in the Bronx (New york). They became one of the symbols of old school hip hop style. But, nowdays, hip hop fashionistas are not the only ones wearing them, they are coveted by everybody: from the girl next door to celebrities like Hilary Duff, Fergie, JLo and Rihanna, to name a few. I bought a pair two weeks ago at Arden b., and have been wearing them everyday. Those earrings can be worn with anything at anytime : from casual to a more refined look.

You can find classic bamboo hoops @ www.girlprops.com. For those who prefer a more contemporary version, these are some of them.
