1. Stud Earrings – Effortless and Elegant

Simple yet sophisticated, stud earrings sit flush against the earlobe and are perfect for daily wear. They often feature diamonds, pearls, or gemstones in a minimalist setting.

2. Hoop Earrings – Bold and Beautiful

Hoop Earrings can be little and delicate or large and ostentatious. Available in gold, silver, or embellished with diamonds, hoops frame your face and add instant charm.

3. Drop Earrings – Graceful Movement

Drop earrings dangle just below the earlobe and add a touch of movement and sophistication. Whether a single gemstone or an ornate design, they’re perfect for day-to-night wear.

4. Dangle Earrings – Statement-Making Style

Longer and more dramatic than drop earrings, dangle earrings offer free-flowing movement and bold flair. Ideal for formal events or making an impression.


5. Huggie Earrings – Modern and Comfortable

Huggie earrings are tiny hoops that wrap around the earlobe tightly. They look great stacked with other earrings and provide a touch of glitter without being overbearing.

6. Chandelier Earrings – Glamorous and Eye-Catching

Inspired by ornate lighting fixtures, chandelier earrings cascade down with intricate tiers of gems. Perfect for weddings, galas, and special occasions.

7. Ear Climbers – Edgy and Contemporary

Ear climbers crawl up your earlobe with a single sweeping design. They're trendy and require only one piercing, giving the illusion of multiple earrings.
