Inspiration: 80's, glitter, pastel, pom poms, hearts, stars, Sailor Moon, Kera magazine, Japanese fashion, Little Twin Stars, Swimmer, moko moko fuzzy happiness.

Quality: Etsy worthy, sturdy, give what you would love to receive.

If you have any preference, like "Please no thrifted items," or "I don't have pierced ears," feel free to post that!!! <3 I know everyone has their preferences & I hope you'll be super happy with this swap! :)

Prefer no thrifted items! Sorry guys!

I prefer earrings and hair items to necklaces and rings etc! Though I'm sure anything is fine :) x
