As time goes by, the jewelry world proves that more is truly more – especially when it comes to stacking earrings on an ear with multiple piercings. It might be easy to stack bracelets, necklaces and rings, but when it comes to ear sparklers, the task becomes harder than you can imagine. So, are you willing to go the extra mile and perfect it? Here are some tips that we could offer you in order to pack the statement you’re looking for!
- For those who are planning to get their ears pierced in multiple places, the most important thing to do is take into consideration the size of your ears. A constellation type of piercings goes well with large ear lobes, while smaller ones call for some extra attention to spreading the earrings across them in order to avoid a crowded look.
- Take into consideration the shape of your ear and the space it offers. If you have small ears, the best you can do is avoid big pieces that take up so much of their space.
- If your piercings go beyond the lobe, adopt layering. Balancing and matching between the earrings you wear is the key to a successful stack.
- To be on the safe side, follow the 40-60 rule. If your earlobes are large and you want to balance things out, style 40% of your piercings with bold pieces and the remaining 60% with more understated ones.
- Play around with textures and styles. Think a plain hoop styled with a paved one, a chain with a plain hoop or a dangling earring with a huggie.
- Another way to avoid making mistakes when stacking earrings is to follow the cascading rule. Place your dangled pieces on the front and opt for smaller ones as you go up your earlobe. Well, you can never go wrong with this effortless look, right?
- Remember to always seek the help of professionals, as they can offer you the best tips to create that perfect ear harmony!
