I'm such a HOOPS girl (they seem to NEVER go out of style), it's pathetic. I also like chandelier & dangly earrings (as long as they're not too heavy on the earlobes), then studs would be last. What about you?

i love hoops too, cause they go w/practically any style of clothes. i really suck in the jewlery dept. so i'd say hoops and studs (diamonds), i keep it simple. what a shame huh?
Hoops (larger over smaller), chandeliers, anything with dangle and movement.
The only studs I wear are my diamonds and those, very occasionally. Usually if my necklace is the focal point, I will wear the studs. Otherwise, I'm all about dangly earrings.

none! i don't have my ears pierced. i did when i was little but the last time i wore earrings was in eigth grade, a gold enamelly pair from the limited. i remember those so well because i was so proud to be wearing something from the limited. my family was pretty poor at that point in my life so the limited (they were christmas presents from my grandparents) was a big step up for me!
i often think about getting my ears pierced though, but honestly, (i know this is really silly) i don't want to deal with the pain. even if it doesn't really hurt and it's quick. but i like to think that i would wear simple studs, pearls and diamonds. pearls for everyday and diamonds for nicer days.

I am SO boring with earrings. I only really wear my diamond studs on a regular basis. I think it's mostly because one of my ears sits higher than the other and I hate drawing attention to the asymmetry. Also, I prefer to wear my hair in front of my ears (looks cooler and less prim)
I love wearing dangly, linear earrings. I actually didn't wear earrings at all for several years for some reason and now that I do, I want them to be really long and dramatic. I adore my dangly amber earrings!
I wear diamond studs every day. Sometimes I will wear pearls (when I am feeling conservative. . .) And other times I wear cluster dangles like these:
or other dangles like these (I don't know what to call them):
I think I look weird in chandeliers--like I'm playing dress-up or something. I used to wear hoops all the time, but I tend to go in phases w/ earrings, and I'm definitely in a stud phase right now.

Hoops, but they must be big. Also dangly earring, but linear, not chandelier (i feel like ejc, but i hadn't thought it the playing dress, part - I never looked it that way - perfect description!).
Most of my earrings look similar to these

I can only wear clip on earrings. A lot of clip ons that aren't dangly end up being huge and looking matronly, so I'll wear dangly clip ons when I wear earrings, but I generally don't wear them often.
i wear studs- usually pearls, every day. easiest and i don't like worrying about losing an earring or it getting tangled in my hair. i have some dangles and some big earrings i like a lot, but not really any hoops or chandeliers.
