I love these Mini Live In Hoops ✨ They’re the daintiest little hoops — so light and comfortable you can wear them all day, every day. 💛 These lightweight gold hoops take a little extra care when you first put them on, but that tiny {hoop} hug is so worth it! Once in, they’re made to stay in — sleep, shower, run, create, travel — no need to ever take them off!
