How to Pair Earrings with Your Outfit
Earrings are the perfect accessory for spicing up an outfit. Whether you’re looking for subtle sparkle or something bolder, earrings can make all the difference to your look.
The question is, how do you pair earrings with your outfit? Here are some tips for matching earrings with clothes, and the best styles to shop for.
Stay in One Color Scheme
One of the easiest and most effective ways to style your earrings with your outfit is to stick to one color scheme. For example, pairing beige and chocolate brown tones would add dimension to your look without being overly contrasting. You can do it with any color! Just remember to stay in the same general color palette, and you won’t go wrong.
Master Color Blocking
Interested in experimenting? Instead of sticking to one color scheme, do the opposite. Color blocking is a timeless trend that involves mixing two to three bold colors together in one outfit for a fun statement look.
Choose a pair of earrings in a bright color, like neon pink, or lime green. Then, select every other aspect of your outfit to be a different bright hue. Experiment as much as you like to master the art of color blocking.
Pair Statement with Simple
Is your go-to daily outfit typically a white blouse and jeans, or an all-black ensemble? Give your look a whole new meaning by popping on a pair of statement earrings. From huge hoops to shoulder-grazing chandeliers, you can go as big and as bold as you like!
Mix and Match Prints
Just because you’re wearing a floral dress doesn’t mean your earrings need to be rose or petal-shaped. Get playful by mixing and matching prints. As the fashion rule book goes, mixing florals with geometric shapes such as stripes and polka dots can create a fascinating ensemble without it seeming overwhelming.
Stay Safe with Classic Diamond Earrings
Diamonds are a girl’s best friend—not only because they sparkle, but because they are versatile accessories that add an air of elegance and sophistication to any outfit. You can’t go wrong with a classic pair of diamond earrings.
