Accessories help define an individual
by showing their personal style and preferences. No matter how beautifully one
dresses up, without accessory no look can be complete. One such piece of
accessory is earrings, which is simple yet quintessential for women. The choice
of earrings plays a game-changing role in any appearance. This is because
earrings not only draw attention to the face but they should also go with the
hairstyle. It’s a science in itself to choose the perfect earrings that go with
the dress and works in coherence with the hairstyle to create a look that is on
point and Fraser Ross is here to help you find
the perfect jewellery.
Generally, accessorizing with earrings
is dependent on the shape of the face, length of neck and the hairstyle. In a
nutshell, the choice of earrings to not compete with the face shape and
hairstyle, it should rather compliment to give a totally flawless look. Below
is a list of hairstyles and the matching earrings that will go with it
HAIR LET DOWN
For women who let their hair down and
with long tresses, the best choice is to go for a pair of studs. Hair down is a
distraction itself for anyone to notice your earrings. To make it look
extraordinary, you can choose studs in the form of single gemstones such as
black onyx, which will easily draw attention. Multiple piercing can create a
soft look; by wearing small delicate studs one can carry the hairdo elegantly.
Hair let down should not restrict your choice of earrings to studs only. You
can also aim for lively colourful tasselled earrings to look classy.
UP-DO OR HIGH BUN
When hair is worn up or in a bun, there
is ample of space available from the ears to shoulders to flaunt your choice of
earrings. An up-do or high bun is a sophisticated hairstyle. Long, thin and
delicate dangling is a perfect choice for this kind of hairstyle. A simple yet
bold dangling will work just fine even if the frame of the face is surrounded
by loose strands of hair, but it’s better if you chose a smaller size in this
case. Another option for this kind of hairstyle is the hoop.
SHORTHAIR AND PIXIE
Women with short hair may feel they
don’t have hair to experiment with hairstyles but little do they know, they
have earrings to accessorize short hair for any event.
With a short haircut, the ear has more
visibility than ever; women can go with ear jackets and cuffs. Ear crawlers
will also make the hairstyle look edgy and classic. Single colour earring cuffs
should be the go-to choice here as they make the short haircut look regal.
Also, diamond and crystal cuffs make one look glamorous.
For short hair, massive bulky earrings
should be avoided and. You should also keep in mind the time of day, the colour
of your hair and the look you are trying to achieve with the haircut. Flashy
and bold earrings are for the evening while keeping it simple during the
daytime.
PONYTAILS
If ponytail is high then giant
statement earrings will look great. Hoops are and ear cuffs are another choice
for a high ponytail. With a low ponytail, one can always be laidback with their
choice of earrings. A single pair of large studs, or multiple delicate small
studs or snugly fit hoop earrings could be the choice. These looks will make
you feminine but definitely not casual or underdressed.
CURLY HAIR
The choice of earrings for curly hair
is a tricky thing. This is because the earrings can get stuck in the hair and
the hair has some great movement which makes it difficult for the studs to get
noticed. The ideal choice of earrings for curly hair is the hoop earrings which
creates a bold statement look and does not tangle in the curly hair. For hoop
earrings, one can choose from a variety of sizes and textures.
HALF UP-DO
Nothing can make women look more
elegant than a perfect pair of delicate pair of strand earrings; especially if
it complements the long neck. This hairdo is meant for long hair. With this
hairstyle, keep the strand earring simple to give yourself a feminine look.
Your best bet could be diamond studs or single gemstones such as pearls. Your
hairstyle should do the talking while your earrings should take a back seat
with half up-do.
SIDE SWEPT HAIR
It’s a party hairdo and with it, you
just need something simple yet chic. The perfect piece to go with this will be
pendant drop earrings. They will make you look elegant and lady-like.
Side swept hair gives you the liberty
to wear the earrings matching or contrasting to your dress. Drop earrings that
are too long should be avoided with this hairstyle as it will make the face
long much elongated.
SHOULDER LENGTH HAIR
With shoulder length hair, women have a
defined outline across their shoulders which make it an excellent reference
point to decide the length and size of earrings. The ideal choice of earrings
can be colourful but should not go past the shoulder-length. Statement earrings
and chandelier style earrings will look flawless with shoulder length hair. In
short, any earrings that fill the space created by your hair, around your face
create will look fabulous.
To pull off a great look, it is
important to match your hairstyle to your earrings. The right earrings and
hairstyle can be a real game changer. Having said this, if you do have a pair
of earring that you love, don’t let your hairstyle keep you from wearing it.
After all, it’s the personal style and confidence that will make heads turn in
your direction.
