What are huggie earrings?

Huggies are, usually, small hoops with a special design. They are named like this because, when you are wearing them, it looks as if they are embracing your ear lobes.

In truth, there is no limit of when or how to wear your huggies and we love the creativity they allow for. This being said, let’s take a look at our favorite five designs and get inspired.

5 irresistible styles for huggie earrings

Before we get started, let’s take a moment to talk about your personal style. Each woman has a unique style and loves certain jewelry designs. Some women prefer delicate pieces, while others love making a statement with chunky jewelry. However, regardless of your usual preferences, huggies are for everybody. Yes, even for those of you who are set on large, bold hoops.

When wearing a statement jewelry piece, like a chunky necklace or a big cuff bracelet, you also need what we call supporting pieces. You can’t shower yourself in big jewelry, can you? Wearing a statement necklace with a chunky cuff bracelet, a cocktail ring and a pair of oversized hoops is a faux-pas. However, wearing that exact statement necklace with a pair of delicate huggie earrings is a big do. Get our point? Ok, then let’s check out what huggie design matches your personal style.

Simple solid gold huggie hoops

If you are looking for a versatile jewelry piece, then go for these simple solid gold mini hoops. Handcrafted in solid 14k gold, these hoops are great to wear with other minimal jewelry or even layer with other earrings.

Styling tip:

Wear these mini hoops mismatched when you want to get an edgy look. One of the best ideas is to wear a hoop on one year and a contrasting, linear drop earrings in your other ear. However, make sure your earrings are of the same metal to create a cohesive look.

Delicate pearl huggies

These super stylish gold huggie earrings with a natural pearl charm are simply fabulous. We love the way they embrace the ear lobe while the lustrous pearl charm floats beautifully alongside. So if you are in the market for a pair of extra-feminine huggies with gemstones, get Ana Luisa’s Frida earrings.

Pull your hair back when you are wearing these huggie earrings so that the pearls are not obscured by the hair strands. Also, accessorize them with solid colors as opposed to patterns if you don’t want to distract from the delicate luster of the pearls.
