Women's Earrings

How do you choose the right pair of women's earrings?

Choosing the right earring comes down to three factors that work best when considered together: face shape, occasion, and personal style.

A round face is beautifully balanced by Drop Earrings or elongated styles that visually lengthen the silhouette.

On the other hand, an oval face can pull off just about anything - wide Hoop Earrings, minimalist Stud Earrings, or classic Leverback Earrings.

Square faces find their balance with rounded shapes that soften the features.

For everyday wear, Stud Earrings and small Hoop Earrings are always a safe bet. They work as effortlessly with a office outfit as with weekend jeans. For a dinner, a wedding, or a dressed-up evening, diamond earrings or styles set with stones like sapphire or amethyst deliver instant glamour.

Gold, silver, diamond: which material should you choose?

Gold is the go-to material in jewelry. At Ocarat, gold earrings in 375 or 750 Yellow Gold are perfect for a lasting jewelry piece that won't tarnish. White gold adds a contemporary edge, often paired with a diamond for special occasions.

925 Silver offers outstanding value and lends itself beautifully to intricate designs - openwork patterns, hammered or textured finishes. It's the ideal choice for exploring different styles without overspending.

Diamond Earrings are the pinnacle of elegance. At Ocarat, they feature certified stones and meticulous settings. They make an exceptional gift for a birthday, Mother's Day, or a wedding proposal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which earrings suit a round face?

Elongated styles like Drop Earrings or chain earrings visually lengthen the silhouette and rebalance facial proportions. Avoid very wide Hoop Earrings and circular shapes that would accentuate roundness.

How do you care for gold earrings?

A regular clean with lukewarm soapy water followed by a wipe with a soft cloth is all it takes to restore gold's shine. Avoid prolonged contact with perfumes and cosmetics, which can dull the metal. We also carry cleaning kits - including a cleaning bath and polishing cloth - available in our jewelry accessories category.

What's the difference between 375 Gold and 750 Gold?

750 Gold (18 carats) contains 75% pure gold: it's more resistant to tarnishing and holds its color longer. 375 Gold (9 carats) contains 37.5% pure gold: it's more affordable and slightly more scratch-resistant thanks to its higher alloy content.

Can you wear Drop Earrings every day?

Yes, as long as you choose a lightweight style with a secure clasp. Short drop earrings or fine chain styles are perfectly suited for everyday wear. For more statement pieces, it's best to save them for special occasions to keep your lobes comfortable.
