Best Earring Styles for Every Occasion
With different occasions that call for different earring styles, here's what you need to know about some common types of earrings:
1. Studs
14K Yellow 1/3 CTW Diamond Stud Earrings
Perfect for:
- The office
- Other sophisticated or solemn occasions
Simple studs are perfect for office settings because they let you accessorize in an elegant and fashionable manner without seeming too loud or compromising the “professional” look. Plain diamond studs, for example, are simple yet classy and that's why they are always a safe bet. They also look great with any ensemble and are easy and comfortable to throw on for everyday wear. If ever unsure about which earring style will be acceptable, you can never go wrong with studs.
2. Hoops

Perfect for:
- Parties
- Other casual settings
Hoops are considered the most fun earring style. This makes hoop earrings great for parties, nights out, and lunch dates. Though larger hoops make for a trendy, youthful look, smaller hoops can be incorporated into less casual settings too. The trick is to keep the minimal hoops for more sophisticated occasions and the fun hoops for casual settings where you just wanna have a good time. This makes hoop earrings a great choice for when you want to play around with different accessories and have fun with some trendy earrings.
3. Dangle earrings

Perfect for:
- Date nights
- Weddings
- Other formal/fancy occasions
Dangle earrings are your go-to earring style when you want to look glamorous and make a statement. That's why dangle earrings are great for any sort of fancy occasion. Dangle earrings pair perfectly when you’re wearing a dress with your hair pulled back. They help create that classy look with a little bit of extravagance. Keep your dangle earrings away from professional settings though, they are usually not business appropriate and should be reserved for fancy nights out.
4. Climbers

Perfect for:
- Everyday events
- Any occasion that isn't necessarily casual or formal
Climber earrings or ear climbers are the opposite of dangle earrings. Instead of coming down below the ear, they go up the ear and do not dangle. Climber earrings can be dressed up or down to be worn for almost any occasion. With climber earrings, you can have something more interesting than a simple stud without the extravagance of them hanging below your ears. Climber earrings also won’t come in your way and can be worn for everyday activities.
There you have it. Now you know how to pick the best earrings for special occasions, casual ones, and those in between. So get out there and perfect your look for each occasion with the best earring style! For all these earring styles and more, shop our earring collection today!
