Actually since Hawk Moth was going to akumatize Marinette and her mother for the first time, he gave them the names Verity Queen and Princess Justice which had the power to tell the truth. I believe that power was going to make Marinette give Hawk Moth the earrings herself since he so happened to actually target Ladybug this time. With the power to speak the truth, she didn't even have to fight Ladybug if she was Ladybug herself.
