Mixing and Matching Earrings 101
Over the years, people have gotten creative with their earrings. From the diamonds and white gold boom in the 1920s, to the gigantic hoops in the 90s, and now the enduring trend of multiple earrings, even if the user doesn’t have multiple piercings. The look can range from subtle with a stud and a hoop, or wild and bold with an entire ear party.Read on to see how you can do various earring combinations for your unique style.
Guide to Mixing and Matching Earrings
Some exciting notes to remember:
Make a statement with your ears and you won’t need a necklace. If you’re stacking necklaces, keep earrings minimal, perhaps dots of studs rather than your usual huggies and hoops.
You can wear earrings on almost all parts of your ear. Popular piercings include ones on the tragus, conch, and helix. Ear cuffs, clip-ons, fake studs (stick-on), and loops work great for those who don’t want to get their ears pierced.
Ear Party
#earparty has been making the rounds on social media for quite some time, and for good reason. It’s fun to combine multiple earrings to achieve a certain look, whether for a casual outing or an elegant night out. Check out some of these tips to get those Instagram-worthy earring combinations.
Pick a theme. Every good party has a theme for their guests to follow. Want to channel the brilliance of a night sky? Combine dangling earrings and diamond studs. What’s the pantone colour for this year? Use pieces with that palette. Got some cute geometric-shaped studs? Line your lobes with them. Going for a single theme helps harmonise the entire look and makes choosing pieces easier.
Play with colours…Matching colours is a safe choice, and the easiest to do. When you pick out a sapphire earring, go for similarly blue pieces, or accents like diamonds that don’t clash with the main colour.But you should also consider using complementary colours for a striking visual effect. You can pair black enamel hoops with white ones, for example, for a modern and sleek look.
…And asymmetry. Who says only symmetry works for earrings? Mix things up by wearing an uneven number of pieces for either side, or by donning different but complementary ear studs, hoops, or colours (stud on the left, hoop on the right).Try a single big hoop or a single long earring. Make sure to also match your look to your hairstyle. Do your ear party on the ear not hidden by your hair.
Use the same material. While you can play around with colours and symmetry, as a rule of thumb, you should use the same materials. If you have silver earrings, use silver for the rest to make things neat and tidy.
