When most are getting ready to go out, or even to have an online video meeting, they want to look their best. Earrings highlight and accentuate the face when they are the right style to match your face shape. We want to give you some tips on matching face shape to earrings, and we would love to hear your tips too!
You know your face, you have probably consulted with a hairstylist about the best cut and style to flatter your face. Not everyone takes that next step and considers that not every style of earring is one-size-fits-all. While the trick to the eye is relatively universal, the actual choice of what to wear is based on taste and what makes you happy. There are also conflicting versions about face shape definitions, but these are all representations of face shapes that we’ve found.
FACE SHAPES
Round
 |
 |
You want to elongate your face and accentuate your features, creating long lines is the way to get there. Long hanging earrings are a great way to achieve that. Studs and hoops mimic the roundness of your face and serve to make it seem shorter and rounder.
Oval
 |
 |
An oval face shape’s dimensions highlight the cheekbones naturally. This face shape, unlike round shapes sings with hoops, studs, and triangles. The smaller pieces balance the eye line of the face, and looks beautiful!
Oblong
 |
 |
When your face is longer, you want earrings that are going to widen your face at its midpoint. Studs and hoops are great! If you want to go with dangles, try to get a wider dangle with some size to it. Pulling the line at the center of your face makes it seem more oval than oblong and will make it a bit shorter in appearance.
Square
 |
 |
When your face is more square, you want to emphasize roundness. Causing the illusion of a more curved facial structure. Hoops, round studs, rounded dangles are all good! You want to avoid anything square or boxy,
Heart
 |
 |
A heart-shaped face features a large forehead and the face tapers down to a more narrow chin. This face shape is best suited to long dangles that draw the eye to the chin, balancing the face. Studs, huggies, and jackets are not as complementary to the heart-shaped face.
Diamond
 |
 |
People with a diamond face shape can wear hoops or long curved dangles to make the jawline appear softer. Add width to a pointy jaw with pear shapes or triangle-shaped earring styles. Adding roundness will emphasize your cheekbones while giving a softer appearance to a pointed chin.
