From Hoops to Studs: The Latest Earring Trends to Try

Earrings come in every shape and color, from small and delicate to large and bold, which makes the latest trends hard to keep up with. Below are the most popular earring styles of the moment, from classic hoops to daring ear cuffs.

First on our list is the hoop earring. It's a classic that goes with almost anything, and this season designers are playing with its shape. Some of the newest designs stretch the hoop into an elongated shape that curves around the ear. For an even more dramatic look, try a pair of hoop earrings adorned with feathers or colorful gems. Hoops range from small and delicate to large and bold.

Another style that's having a moment is the statement earring. These earrings are designed to be noticed, with oversized shapes, bold colors and detailed patterns, and one pair can carry a plain outfit. Some of this season's popular statement earrings include tassels, fringe, and geometric shapes. For more drama, try a long pair that dangles toward your shoulders.

If you prefer a more understated look, consider trying stud earrings. They add a little sparkle without taking over. The latest stud earring trends feature unusual shapes and materials. For example, you could try a pair of studs in the shape of stars, moons, or flowers. Some studs also feature unconventional materials such as leather or wood. Studs work for everyday wear and fit easily into a work outfit.

Next, let's talk about ear cuffs. Ear cuffs wrap around the outer part of the ear and give your look an edgy, modern feel. Ear cuffs come in a variety of designs, from simple and delicate to bold and ornate. Some cuffs feature chains that connect to other earrings and create a layered effect. Since many ear cuffs don't need a piercing, they also work if your ears aren't pierced.

Finally, there's the mismatched earring trend. This style is all about wearing two different earrings, one in each ear, to create an unexpected and playful look. The key is to keep one thing in common, such as the same color, metal, or design element. It suits anyone who likes to experiment with their jewelry.

If you have one piercing in each ear, a stud plus an ear cuff lets you try two of these trends at once. Check out our collection to see our current earrings.
