within ear shot

my adorable grandmother was never allowed to pierce her ears as a young girl which resulted in a large collection of fantastic clip-ons that i insist on rummaging through every time i visit. and every time i find something new. recently i picked out a set that i wear only on my cartilage kind of like my ear's version of the two-finger ring, adding just the right amount of edge and rock and roll. hardware without being hard.
