Jewellery is important. It remains a metal only until a person wears it. After that, it becomes a part of you. Jewellery is something that is a reflection of you and your personality. Out of all the jewellery pieces, earrings are paramount because you need them every day. No matter how expensive or gorgeous your outfit is, it will be incomplete if you do not pair it with earrings. Earrings are those quintessential accessories that can either make or break your outfit.
Step out and you will be surrounded by stores selling a plethora of earring designs. With so many options to choose from, it is obvious that you will get confused and perplexed. We often make the mistake of buying things that fascinate us, without even knowing if it suits us or without knowing how to style it… thus end up making a fashion blunder.
Like there is an unsaid thumb rule on the type of earrings you wear based on your face shape, there is also one for the neckline. Since, your neckline is the closest part of your outfit to your face, and earrings are known to lift and provide a structure to your face, it’s essential that you pay attention to it and wear earrings accordingly.
Here are a few tips and tricks that you can incorporate while determining which type of earrings design will go best with which silhouette neckline.
Boat neck- If you are wearing an outfit with a boat neck then it is recommended that you avoid any kind of long earrings. Because a super-classic neckline like this calls for attention- so a pair of baubles stud earrings or midi length earrings will be the perfect match. If you're committed to your studs and want to keep it simple yet elegant, then opt for a pair that is a little bit unusual.
For some extra fun, choose a pair of earrings that falls below your jawline, for example- shoulder dusters that will frame your face perfectly. If you want colors, then go for tiny drop gemstone earrings that are asymmetrical in pattern, to add that edgy vibe to an otherwise classic look.
Asymmetrical Neck- This type of neckline is overly trendy and sexy. It doesn’t matter if it is an asymmetrical neck dress or gown or for that matter a top, this neck design oozes out timelessness and sophistication galore.
The best accessories for something this loud should definitely be something that is exclusive and significant. You don't want any dangly things distracting from your already-busy neckline.
Try edgy crawlers as you want to keep it simple and allow your neckline to enjoy the limelight. A pair of classic studs will also work magic with asymmetrical neck designs. Avoid anything that is long or too big because that will take away the artistic drama from the neckline.
Halter neck- For high neck or halter neck outfits, it is better if you keep away from statement earrings. Instead, head out wearing earrings that are light and chic. Keep it minimal, yet trendy. Stunning Huggies earrings and J-hoops will enhance the look and feel of a halter dress, way beyond you can imagine.
But, do not go for those cheap earrings that you find in the street markets. Invest in diamonds or golds that are not only comfortable to wear but will come in better designs.
V neck- One of the most classic and flattering necklines is the V-neck. In this case, go for something bigger and voluminous. If you are looking for something formal, then choose a pair of gold studs. For a casual party vibe, pick up a pair of gold danglers. You can even try the new tassel earrings, that are bright and colorful, adding just the right pop of color to your outfit.
