Zipper Earrings

Zippy Fashion

These zipper earrings might be just asking for trouble.  The concept is unique, but having a zipper tab hanging form your ear lobe is asking to have your earrings ripped out.

For $4.99, this is an inexpensive gag gift, but even though they only measure 3/4”, they really aren’t that subtle.

I know it’s only a matter of time (if it hasn’t happened already), but the suggestion of a nose, tongue, or eyebrow zipper piercing can be sure to follow.
