Choosing earrings according to face shape
To stay stylish from spring to winter, women love wearing beautiful accessories . While it's important to consider your skin tone and hairstyle when choosing new jewelry , it's also essential not to overlook the features of your face. Certain earring styles are suited to particular face shapes and have a positive effect on your overall look. Looking to give a beautiful piece of jewelry to a woman? Want to know which types of earrings best suit your face? Discover some tips on how to choose earrings based on face shape.
Earrings for a round or diamond-shaped face
Round faces are generally quite wide at the cheekbones and have a small, rounded jawline. Diamond-shaped faces are distinguished by a narrower forehead and chin. Women with these physical characteristics can accentuate their rounded features with square or geometric earrings. The idea is to create an angular effect with short, geometric drop earrings , square hoops , or straight drop earrings . Conversely, round hoops or other rounded jewelry should be avoided, as they tend to emphasize the roundness of the face, particularly around the chin.
Here are some examples of earrings and other jewelry suitable for round or diamond-shaped heads:
- delicate earrings with chains and pearls;
- dangling earrings adorned with stones or charms;
- small earrings with set zircons;
- sleepers with geometric patterns in leather ;
- small stud or brooch-type jewelry with a matching necklace …
Our advice: always choose jewelry that helps to balance your look in terms of your features.
Accessories for oval faces
This shape also has rounded features. However, its length is greater than its width, with a well-defined hairline and a curved jawline. Many types of earrings suit oval faces:
- triangular-shaped earrings;
- large creoles;
- nails…
You can also wear large earrings , regardless of their style. However, overly long dangling earrings can make your face appear even longer. This is especially true for long, narrow faces: the ideal solution is to balance your facial features with wider jewelry such as clip-on earrings or thick hoops.
Jewelry suitable for square faces
The angles of this type of face are pronounced, with a square jaw and a wide forehead. To soften this angular shape, rounded elements must be added.
Opt for jewelry such as:
- round and thin rings;
- a pair of round chips with a beautiful matching pendant;
- bulky round clips;
- pendants in the shape of a heart, a flower, a feather;
- medium-sized sleeper earrings adorned with precious stones…
Avoid overly angular shapes that accentuate a wide chin. Rectangular accessories should also be avoided in this case. You can also soften the look of your chin at the neckline by choosing a pretty necklace in colors and styles that complement your other jewelry.
The case of a heart-shaped or triangular face
It is characterized by a broad forehead and a narrow chin. To enhance your look, we recommend wearing accessories with an inverted shape, where the widest part is located at the base of the piece.
This could be:
- imposing triangular earrings, with the base at the bottom;
- teardrop-shaped sleepers;
- all other types of jewelry with a wide base…
The inverted triangular face has a narrow forehead and a wide jaw. Dangling earrings with heart motifs, studs, and small hoops are used to counterbalance the volume at the jawline.
