But with so many stunning options from little hoop earrings gold to large earring hoops how do you know which style works best for you?

In this guide, we’ll help you understand how to choose the right earrings for your face shape, so you feel confident and look radiant no matter what you wear. And of course, we’ll also highlight some must-have pieces from Irha’s premium collection.

Understanding Your Face Shape

Let’s find out what your facial shape is before we get into trends.. Here are the most common face shapes:

• Oval

• Round

• Square

• Heart

• Diamond

• Long/Rectangular

A good way to determine your face shape is by pulling your hair back, standing in front of a mirror, and outlining the perimeter of your face using a washable marker or lipstick.

Best Earrings for Oval Faces

A little wider forehead than chin and high cheekbones characterize an oval face, which is balanced. Almost any earring style looks flattering on oval faces.

What to Choose:

• Studs

• Tiny hoops gold

• Teardrops

• Statement earrings

Irha’s Picks for Oval Faces:

• Ella Hoop Earrings – Classic gold women’s hoop earrings that enhance natural symmetry.

• Lana Pearls Earring – Feminine charm with a timeless pearl finish.

Best Earrings for Round Faces

Faces that are round feature gentle contours and a proportional width to height. The goal is to elongate and add definition.

What to Choose:

• Long, dangling earrings

• Angular shapes

• Drop earrings

Avoid:

• Large round hoops or button studs, as they may emphasize roundness.
