They look too big for your ears.
Maybe you should try something like the Shure E2C (do a google search) style of a bud for your ears. I'm looking to try them myself since the stock buds that look similiar to yours are uncomfy & big.

Nice earrings. :P

I think Sony makes a white bud, with a clip on style of bud...here's a link:

Then there's the Etymotic 6i with white buds:

Otherwise slap some duct tape over your ears. (kidding of course) ;)

Honestly, I've never seen those before, until I just looked them up.
Your best bet would be to look up/search user reviews on the Apple in ear. See what other people think. That's what I do.

The ones I posted above are more expensive, but the sound quality is better than Apple, from the reviews I've read. Though the stock buds sound fine enough for me, they're just uncomfortable and big.

Edited:
I just read some reviews, and might try these buds myself. I like the idea of having three different sizes included. One of them has to be more comfortable!

I have the Apple iPod In Ear Headphones. They are crappy. I've tried ALL THREE sizes of ear inserts and NONE of them fit anywhere near comfortable. They fall out of my ears all the time... a waste of cash if you ask me.

I'm looking for a really good pair on in ear headphones that don't cost me an arm, a leg, and a left testical... any suggestions?
