I didn't realize the hearts could be removed until I got it, and that feature made the earrings surprisingly versatile. These are extremely lightweight, with or without the hearts, so it's comfortable to wear for me.
TBH the heart dangles feel very toy-like because they're so light and plastic-looking, but they're still super cute. Without them, the earrings look more timeless but with an edge. I enjoy both aesthetics so I'm thrilled with the range.
When I pair this with the heart pearl necklace, I like to remove the hearts on the earrings so the necklace pendant can be the focal point since the hearts are the same size. I like pairing the bracelet (which have smaller sized pearl hearts) with the heart studs though, lol. So it's nice to have options with these.
