My 6 yr old wants earrings. What is an appropriate earring for a little girl. Im looking for the opinions of fellow yeshivish women. I assume studs. But style? Cubic zirconia? Fake pearls? Cute shapes like hearts or unicorns.

You autocorrected to "earnings", not "earrings". You might want to fix that, unless your 6yo has a really good job.
As long as the earrings don't dangle, she should be fine. Let her pick them out! Steer her towards the stud earrings, and then let her get a few pairs.
Maybe let her wear a tiny dangle for Shabbos, if it makes her feel fancy.

Stay away from pearls!!
She’ll be in shidduchim in 12 years and some people might remember that she used to wear pearls.

Small studs make sense for 1st earrings. Fewer things for them to get stuck on, etc.
As for what type of studs: Why don't you let her pick out something she likes?
- small cz
- different colored cz gems
- small shapes.
As long as it's nothing weird (little handcuffs, for example), shouldn't it be okay?

I see a tiny dangle on girls, like a little charm on a hoop look.. Gold toned.

I actually avoided studs at that age as my girls were sensitive to it. I like a hoop earring so there's air circulating around the earring hole.
Like a small hoop with a little heart or flower hanging from it, something like that, is what my girls used to wear at that age.

I remember having a whole discussion on unicorns in my 10th grade BY Chumash class. Some say the colorful Techashim whose skins were used for the mishkan were unicorns. Probably not the unicorns we think of today, but whatever....
So, they may not have been fake, but they were not kosher animals.
I have no issue with unicorns, but I have heard that Sephardim consider it to be a big no-no. As told to me by DD, whose close friend is Syrian Sephardi.

I always found hoops to be most comfortable and cause the least infections. I personally cannot sleep with stud earrings in. Can't imagine my little daughter would be too comfortable either! And no way am I taking them out/putting them in every morning like I do for myself.

I like the leverback style. Bought twin stars several times, different shapes, for my daughters.

Shabbat 28a says that the tachash was kosher.

In which case they were not the unicorns of Disney and Unicorn Tapestry fame, especially since in Christian tradition the unicorn is associated with the Nazarene.
Techashim may be kosher but unicorns ain't. Their hooves aren't split and they don't chew their cud. Cud chewing is very unattractive and no self-respecting unicorn would dream of doing anything so uncouth.
