Beauty with Bling

Ear bling, to be specific!  After being granted the go-ahead almost two years ago, Natalie finally worked up the nerve to get her ears pierced.  She is loving having sparkle in her ears!  The only hurdle has been that (after a looooong wait to change them for the first time) she seems to have inherited my sensitive ears and she's had trouble wearing any of the cutesy little earrings she's collected over the last few years.  So far the only earrings that agree with her are the gold studs she had them pierced with.  Looks like only 14 carat gold for this princess (at least for now)...no surprise there, I guess, given this girl's expensive tastes everywhere else!
