What do hoop earrings say about their owner?  Well, they can say many things depending on style and size!  So if you’re at a loss for which size to pair with your ensemble, let this article be your guide!

One fact is true about hoop earrings, regardless of size – they always make a statement!  Let’s break down the size guide:

• Small hoops, usually a ½ inch high, are best for more conservative or formal affairs
• Medium hoops, between ¾ and 1 inch high, are suitable for a variety of outfits, from casual to party
• And large hoops, basically anything larger than 1 inch high, let the world know that you are hot!

If your goal is to blend into the crowd, I would not recommend large hoops – Because you are going to get noticed!

Now let’s talk about hoop style, another big influencer when it comes to your statement accessory.  A classic pair of plain gold hoops can accompany just about any outfit that you can dream up – but if you add a few carats of diamonds to those hoops, you’ve bumped yourself up into a completely different category of wardrobe!  To err on the safe side, a tasteful pair of small or medium hoop earrings with a single row of prong or channel set diamonds will be compatible with the majority of social and outfit scenarios.

 

The best thing about hoop earrings is that you can mix and match the size and style to compliment every outfit imaginable.  If you want to embrace a demure style, a small set of hoops will be your best bet – but if you want to stand out and make a statement, large hoops glinting with diamonds are a sure way to bring plenty of attention your way!
