What about these? About the same price, and not trendy, but pretty classic. https://www.tiffany.com/jewelry/earrings/palomas-melody-hoop-earrings-37513717/


Oh god no these are old lady earrings


My 70 year old mom would wear those. Awful

Mejuri is cheap crap. She'll appreciate something that's not only fashionable and appropriate for date nights and the workplace but also quality she'll be happy to have in her collection 10 years from now.

OP - I love your choice, I say go for it.


You may not like it, but it's what they want. If you get her these earrings, they'll sit for those 10 years. I'd rather get something that I know my nieces will wear now, not something they'll forget about. In fact, my two nieces who are 22 and 25 requested Mejuri gift cards for Christmas this year. They like gold necklaces, small hoops and studs, thin gold bracelets, nothing that is going to stand out.

If you insist on getting something from Tiffany get something cool like the Hardwear earrings or teeny tiny studs or hoops.


NP. Is Mejuri even real gold/silver? Or just that plated crap?


DP. It's real gold and silver.

I work in NYC finance and manage 40+ young 20 somethings. None of them would wear this kind of earring nor would they care about it being Tiffany.

If you want classic I'd at least go for small cuff earrings, those seem to be much more popular and on trend for them.

If she’s very fashionable she won’t like those.

I'm sorry, but OP said her niece is working in NYC banking. Trust me she doesn't want Elsa Peretti old lady earrings.

I looked at Stone and Strand. Those designs were horrific.


Remember that you're buying for a 21 year old and not a 45 year old.

Don’t get her sterling silver. It looks terrible when it tarnishes, which it will fairly quickly. And then they will be left in a drawer someone bc she doesn’t want to deal with chemicals and dipping them

I like the idea of Tiffany but I don’t love those particular earrings that much. I prefer the Paloma Picasso designs, pearls or a silver bracelet for about the same price.

I love them and I love the other suggestions by PPs. I think that if they speak to you as something you want to give her, it will be a very thoughtful and special gift.
