How to choose the perfect earrings for your face shape?

Earrings are maybe the most simple and elegant accessories for finishing your outfit, but as for everything else when it comes to style, you must choose wisely depending on few factors. There are a lot of different earrings in all kind of shapes, colors and textures, so you probably wonder how you can choose the right ones for you?

The answer is pretty easy; all you need to do is to define your face shape and the rest is a piece of cake. The other factors you need to follow are the overall outfit you are wearing and the occasion (for what type of event you are wearing them).

So let’s start with the perfect earrings for your face shape…

Round face shape (wider at the cheekbones)

People that have this kind of face shape should wear more angular earrings. Long and thin models are also an option for people with round faces. They should avoid circle style earrings because they won’t underline their look.

Heart shaped face (wider at the forehead than at the cheekbones)

The best earrings for this kind of face are the ones that are curved and opposite from the face, like the tear drop earrings.

Oval face shape (same size at the forehead and the cheekbones, narrows to the chin)

When it comes to this kind of face shape, any kind of earrings looks good. Choose any earrings depending on your outfit, the colors that you are wearing and the event that you are attending. The only advice is not to wear too long earrings, because they will make your face look longer as well.

Square face shape (forehead and cheekbones have the same width and the chin is square)

People with this kind of faces should choose circle, round shaped, curved or elongated earrings. This kind of earring will soften the look of the face.

Narrow or long face shape (looks almost the same as the square shaped face but is more elongated)

If you have this kind of face you would want to make it appear shorter. So avoid wearing long earrings and focus on smaller ones like pearls for example.

Don’t forget that the earrings must represent your personality and style. Also be careful with your hairstyle, because sometimes it can hide your earrings when that is not what you want and vice versa.
