Choosing the right earring style

Some popular styles are: wire hooks, huggies, English lock, chandelier, teardrop, hoop and the drop earring.

Consider your skin

Smaller earrings that lack detail normally draw attention to the skin and also with bolder shades and designs. However, bigger and bolder earrings will detract attention away from the skin and normally help enhance someone’s beauty.

  2. I definitely have too many earrings, but they all fit my skin colourwise and they fit to one or the other outfit. 😉 Some would say “can one have too many earrings …?” Not really … although I said otherwise at the beginning … 😉 😀

  3. I also think these large and ‘statement’ earrings look great with the simple cut of your dress (and vice-versa, i.e. simple earrings with a more embellished or accessorised outfit).
