Black Friday can be a breading ground for panic buying, but, trust me, if there's one thing you won't regret running to the checkout for – it's a pair of earrings. Especially designer-inspired teardrop ones. Forget the latest designer bag, this autumn/winter is all about jewellery, and these expensive-looking oversized studs are one such item that's caused something of a fashion frenzy.
If you've been living under a rock and haven't heard about them by now, allow me to fill you in. Gracing the ears of just about every celebrity, stylist and influencer, Bottega Veneta's sculptural tear-shaped earrings have officially been stamped as this season's must-have accessory.
The catch? They're currently out of stock, and they have been for a while. Told you the hype was real. The good news? A plethora of high street stores have been dropping similarly-luxe versions, including Amazon. Hold up: we've found a near-identical pair that are on sale for Amazon Black Friday.

Well, aside from looking exactly the same, Amazon's iteration are made from 18k gold-plated sterling silver while the actual Bottega Veneta Drop Earrings are only 18k gold-finished sterling silver. The original pair will set you back £520, if you can get hold of them, but Amazon's are currently £8.49 – saving you just over £511 to treat yourself elsewhere. Black Friday clothing deals, anyone?
As for how to wear them, one quick scroll through your Instagram feed should serve you all the inspiration you need.
Kylie Jenner wears her silver pair with a simple black T-shirt (probs SKIMS), a red lip and a messy bun, while Hailey Bieber complements her gold ones with that Strawberry Girl aesthetic she's so renowned for.
The A-lister obsession doesn't end there, either; Rosie Huntington Whiteley has been donning the chunky style in all-black outfits since last year, so you know they're a trend that's going to stick around. If RHW approves something, then we all do.
Seriously, they're everywhere, so if you've been contemplating the spend you can rest assured it'll be worth while. OGs or otherwise.
