Please help.. is it okay to wear medicine wheel earrings???

Halito,

okay, I dance traditional cloth and I am Choctaw. I wanted to know if anyone could tell me if it was okay for me to wear my medicine wheel earrings... They are so beautiful and one of the tribal elders taught me to make them... I wore them a couple of years ago but some of the other women looked at me like I was a wannabe and I didn't have any right to wear them... I have a light complection but you can tell Im a native... anyway, after my grandfather passed on in 2003 I didn't wear them any more and I haven't danced since... I am going to try and get back into the powwow scene( my grandmother has to tell me when I can stop mourning his lose) next season... I just wanted to know if it would be okay... I would like to know how all the tribes fell on this subject...
Also, I started dancing when I was like 6 but no one ever mentioned to me if I need to have a crown as part of my regilia, should this be an addition to my regilia even if I am not a princess???? These are the only things my family never told me if they were right or wrong...
Please help me....
Ya ko kee
(: (thanks) :)
