THE MANY TYPES OF EARRINGS 

Earrings can speak in a quiet whisper as they peek out from beneath your hair, complement loud necklaces, bracelets, and rings, or command all of the attention for themselves. 

When shopping for earrings, it’s important to consider the type of fitting so you can create looks that radiate confidence. 

These are the many types of affordable earrings to fit your style in the Paparazzi shop. 

Post Earrings

Post earrings, aka post fittings, are staples in many jewelry boxes. Post fittings feature a thin, straight piece of metal that attaches to the decorative part of the earring on one end and a backing on the other, keeping it in place. 

When you think of posts, you probably picture delicate white rhinestones that fit securely on the earlobes. These types of post earrings are called studs. Stud earrings are often dainty and considered an everyday essential. They’re stationary and fit securely to any part of the ear. 

There are many styles of post earrings, including short studs, mid-length drop earrings, and long dangle earrings and chandeliers. 

Drop-style earrings feature a subtle motif that delicately dangles just below the ear—adding some pizzazz to your everyday looks or understated beauty to more dressed-up ensembles. 

Long post earrings, also referred to as dangle earrings, have more movement, which inspired their name. Dangle earrings on post fittings can have shimmery rhinestones, adorable motifs, or abstract designs that hang well below the earlobe in a dramatic fashion. 

Chandelier earrings are intricate versions of dangle earrings. With multiple tiers of gems, beads, stones, or metallic pieces, chandeliers are meant to make a statement. 

When shopping under the “posts” category in the Paparazzi shop, you’ll find a plethora of earrings to go as subtle, classic, or as loud and fierce with your look as you desire. 

Reach for posts of vibrant dangling, or charismatic chandelier styles when you want to turn up the volume with a little movement. If your look calls for an everyday chic style, make short studs your go-to. 

And, if you want an elaborate, yet stationary post earring with dynamic shine to take you from day to night with ease, go for bolder studs, like the Paparazzi earrings pictured below. 

Hoops

Hoop earrings are another essential in many accessory collections. Hoops have a loop-like structure that comes in various shapes. Some hoops are large with a take-charge attitude, while others fit snugly on the edge of the ear. 

Hoops come in classic designs, high-sheen metals, encrusted with rhinestones and gems, textured details, and sometimes feature charms that hang from the bottom. 

Just like post earrings, hoops are available in many types of styles and sizes at Paparazzi. 

 

 

Fishhook Fittings

Fishhook earrings have a rightful place among the other types of earrings, too. Featuring a curved wire that loops through the earlobe, fishhook fittings have a free-flowing movement, no matter how long or short the designs are. 

Fishhook earrings are available in multiple styles including drop, dangle, and chandelier. Typically, dangle and chandelier earrings on these fittings have a more pronounced sway with their increased length and size.  

In the Paparazzi shop, you’ll find dangling earrings embellished with flowers, animal motifs, feathers, metallic tassels, beads, and more that command attention.

Meanwhile, Paparazzi chandelier earrings on fishhook fittings radiate various vibes like vintage, classic, or even edgy. No matter which energy speaks to you, expect these earrings to demand the spotlight. 

When it comes to fishhook earrings, don’t be afraid to go bright and big. A style like the adorable, affordable earrings pictured below will effortlessly enhance any outfit you pair with them. 

 

 

Clip-On Earrings

Clip-on earrings don’t require piercings, making them ideal for most people. They clip to the ear in timeless, bold, or sparkly fashion. Clip-on earrings can be worn every day, for special occasions, and everywhere in between. 

You’ll find clip-on earrings in hoops, dangle earrings, chandeliers, and exaggerated stud-like designs at Paparazzi. Clip on the style that speaks to you and watch your outfit transform. 

Cuff Earrings

Cuffs wrap around the edge of the ear. These earrings incorporate a bit of metallic edge or a hint of sparkle into your ensemble. Cuffs, like clip-ons, don’t require piercings, making them versatile and ultra-trendy. 

Cuff earrings can be worn on their own or as a complement to other types of earrings. When pairing them with another earring, make sure both pairs have a similar style that ties them together. 

Paparazzi has plenty of cuffs that stun on their own and coordinate perfectly with other earrings and jewelry. 

STYLE TIPS: PAIRING EARRINGS WITH OTHER ADORABLE ACCESSORIES

With many different styles and types of earrings available in the Paparazzi shop, choosing just one pair for your look can feel overwhelming. That’s where our Paparazzi Stylists are here to help! 

When choosing accessories, pick pieces that perfectly complement an audacious outfit, seamlessly go with everyday looks, or add a bold sparkle to make your ensemble pop. 

To pair jewelry together, you want the pieces to have similarities in their colors and style. If you’re wearing multiple accessories, decide where you want to pull the focus.  

The neckline is a popular area for making a statement. Subtle hoops or stud earrings can be the perfect companion to a striking necklace. For a trendy take, try stacking multiple earrings on one or both ears. Subtle studs, hoops, clip-ons, and ear cuffs can turn up the volume while still complementing other standout accessories. 

On the other hand, if you’re forgoing a necklace or donning delicate chains with other understated accessories, exaggerated studs or hoops, loud dangling earrings on post fittings, or spotlight-stealing chandeliers on fishhook earrings can bring the drama your look needs.
