Claire’s, We Hardly Knew Ye: 5 Vogue Staffers on Their Memories of the Tween Piercing Paradise

Claire’s Accessories, a beloved haven for tweens with a passion for trinkets, is facing bankruptcy once again. The news has left many nostalgic for the days spent browsing through the aisles of charm anklets and pleading with parents for a new pair of sparkly earrings.

While most Claire’s locations in the United States and North America will remain open as the company explores strategic alternatives, the future of the once-iconic chain seems uncertain. For many, Claire’s was more than just a store – it was a rite of passage, where first piercings were done by bored 19-year-olds with unsteady hands and crushes were discussed by racks of accessories.

Vogue staffers shared their reminiscences of Claire’s, reflecting on the store that taught them how to accessorize. From admiring frilly pink things as a young child to getting multiple piercings done at Claire’s, each story is a testament to the unique allure of this iconic store.

For Christian Allaire, Claire’s was a place of aspiration, where he felt drawn to the cute bows and star-shaped earrings despite societal norms. Hannah Jackson spent hours outside Claire’s, watching others get their ears pierced and indulging in hideous plastic earrings that she now considers heirlooms. Irene Kim, on the other hand, learned the hard way about the risks of getting cartilage pierced with a gun at Claire’s, experiencing infections and bumps as a result.

As Claire’s faces this latest challenge, it’s clear that the store holds a special place in the hearts of many who grew up browsing its shelves. While the future may be uncertain, the memories and experiences shared at Claire’s will always remain a cherished part of many childhoods.
