Liz Kantner: A Week in the Life of her Ears

I first met Liz Kantner while at the Couture show in the Todd Reed booth. I liked her instantaneously. Since then, I’ve gotten to know her via social media, even though she’s based in Colorado and I’m here in California. I admire her personal style and how she just gets what’s cool, even if the rest of us don’t know it yet. Not only does she write an on-point jewlery blog, but she is also a jewelry consultant and jewelry-lover to the Nth degree. I was thrilled when she agreed to photograph her ears for a week so we could get an up-close look about what’s hip in the world of Liz. Though she does wear a stud configuration most days, at least a few days a week (when she’s feeling bold) she rocks a dangling earring. So without further ado, check out her week…

In all vintage studs…

Though I did get two additional piercings in my left ear in 2014, I sadly had to let the very top one close — it just wouldn’t heal. I am now exploring my next earring purchase for my lone second piercing on my left ear. I did order one of the earrings in this post to try out, as I’m totally obsessed with it. Any guess which one it is?

Thank you so much, Liz, for sharing your lobe and your jewelry savvy with us!! xo

  1. Fun to see the various earring combos up close. But each morning or many times a day you have to make a choice of which three earrings to wear – I have a hard time picking one pair!!

  2. Great post! My customers, and I are enjoying all sorts of ear parties too!
    Love the beautiful Polly Wales and Gabriella Kiss combo. Yea!

    1. Ear parties are so fun, Bess! Happy that you enjoyed the post, and perhaps Liz’s ears will give you some ideas. 🙂

    1. Being a jewelry consultant can include various things, Sugar, from consulting with individual designers on their lines, with stores about their marketing, or with industry publications, just to name a few. It’s a cool job!

  3. Amy, this was so much fun to read. I’m a member of Amy’s mutual admiration society. Love the Todd Reed w/the bug. Loved all of it, actually. Fun!
