Trend Alert: Doorknocker Earrings

Greetings Fashionistas,

Happy Friday!!! So what are your plans for the weekend? I'll be in town but I don't mind because the Tom Joyner Family Reunion is here and I'm headed to the Expo for some thought provoking seminars, comedic relief, vendor shopping, AND entertainment by some of my favorite artists. Then Monday, I plan to enjoy the last summer outing of the year by heading to the beach for Labor Day. Can't wait!!!

I wonder if you guys have been noticing a serious resurgence of the doorknocker earring style. This design is a fab statement piece seen prominently during the 1980s. I love this design. I currently own only 2 pair and they're both vintage styles. I've recently spotted these vintage earrings on some stylish celeb divas.  

On the left, Adrienne Bailon rocked a pair of Badacious doorknockers. These multi-colored earrings are super fab!!! If you guys haven't heard of this site....visit now at www.badacious.com. Rihanna  rocks a pair with pearl clasps. 

 Kim K looked regal in her deco inspired doorknockers.

Although I used to own the bamboo style back in the day, I've since moved on to the more modern styles below.
