Statement earrings are the easiest way to elevate a look: A simple dress or a white shirt instantly looks special with the right earrings. A few rules help them look elegant rather than overdone.
What makes statement earrings stand out?
They stand out through their size, length, shape, or material – large pearls, long drop earrings, sculptural shapes, or sparkling stones. They are the focal point of the look.
Ideas with pearls
- Large pearls: The 13 mm pearl stud earrings look classic yet striking.
- Baroque pearls: The baroque pearl earrings in twisted gold vermeil or the baroque pearl earrings with crystal blossoms are true one-of-a-kind pieces.
- Pearl hoops: The hammered hoops in 24K gold vermeil combine gold and pearls.
Ideas with sparkle and shape
- Moissanite: The emerald-cut moissanite earrings sparkle particularly beautifully in the evening.
- Long and playful: The blossom drop earrings are 55 mm long and move with every step.
The right shape for your face
- Round face: Long, narrow drop earrings visually elongate.
- Square face: Round shapes and hoops soften the lines.
- Oval face: Almost anything suits.
- Heart-shaped face: Teardrop shapes that widen at the bottom.
How to style statement earrings
- A focal point: Skip a statement necklace – a delicate necklace or none at all is better.
- Hairstyle: An updo or a ponytail best showcases long earrings.
- Neckline: Particularly beautiful with turtlenecks, Carmen necklines, and off-the-shoulder tops.
- Metal: Rings and bracelets in the same metal color keep the look harmonious.
When are statement earrings appropriate?
Not just in the evening. With jeans and a sweater, large pearls look casually elegant, sculptural studs are perfect for the office, and for weddings and parties, you can go for sparkle. You can find more ideas under Jewelry to match dresses.
Lightweight comfort
Large earrings should not be too heavy. Pay attention to the length and material specifications. If you don't have pierced ears, gold vermeil ear clips are a beautiful alternative.
