There are several kinds of clip on earring styles to keep in mind when purchasing. I will list them briefly: 1. Half Ball Style, 2. Pierced Look Style, 3. Slip on or Snap On Hoops, 4. Clutch Back or Paddle Back, 5. Screw Back clip on earrings.
The picture to your rights shows 3 of the above mentioned styles. This lovely set is available at The Clip On Earring Store and it's a great example of various clip on styles.
First, is the Swarovski crystal pearl dangle. This is a pierced style clip on earring. Kind of looks like a leverback post when on the ear and very popular for those who like a pierced look.
Second, is the slip on hoop, just like the snap on hoop, it is seamless and looks like it is going right through your ear. These are very comfortable and create a definite pierced ear look easily.
Third, is the most commonly seen style the half ball style clip on earring- just a very simple classic look on the ear that allows, in this case, the lovely pear shaped design to dangle from the ear. This half ball style may also be seen in a larger look.
The other styles of clip on earrings mentioned were as follows:
The clutch back or paddle back earring-- These are great for those who like a non-dangle style. They just clip to the back of the ear with a larger clip and grip the ear nicely and comfortably. Also, is the the screw back clip on earrings- these have an adjustable hinge and screw on for your comfort level and they are very similar to the half ball style, as they have a ball style showing on the ear. Very nice for a finished look.
