Explore which pair of earrings will best compliment
your features. The right earrings will draw attention to your face and enhance
your most attractive qualities. Although small in size, earrings have a major
role to play in your entire ensemble since they sit closest to your face. It's
not enough to match your earrings to your outfit; it's equally important to
consider if their length, shape and design match the shape of your face, if you
want to look fabulous from head to toe. For instance, round hoops soften the
angles of a rectangular face while long and thin earrings balance out the
curves of a round-faced woman.
How
to determine the Shape of the face
Every person's face is different unless you're an
identical twin! However, the vast majority of faces fit into one (or more) of
several categories. These facial categories are: Oblong, Heart, Square, Oval,
Round, Triangular, and Diamond. Keep your measurements handy and continue
reading to determine which category (or categories) you fit into! Refer our previous post to know how to identify face shape.
Choose
Right Earrings for your Face Shape
Round
Shape:
Long drop or dangle earrings will elongate your face
and make it look slimmer. Avoid large circular earrings, hoops and button studs
which only emphasize the roundness. Also, stay away from drop earrings with a
dangling round disc as the roundness will make your face look rounder.
Oblong
Face:
If you have long, thin faces choose earrings that
emphasize the width of your face. Studs, clustered earrings, short dangles,
hoops will be a better choice. Any time of round earrings will widen your face,
and make it look fuller.
Square
Face:
Women with wide square jaws need to soften the hard
edges of their face. Oval shapes soften things up, and circular earrings and
hoop earrings work well too. Stay away from square studs or any kind of earring
with a square as it only reinforces your square shape of face.
Heart
Shaped Face:
If your forehead is wider than your cheeks and the
lower half of your face narrows like a heart then you have a heart-shaped face.
In this case, you need to counterbalance your sharp chin with chandelier or
tear drop earrings. Earrings that are wider at the bottom than the top help
fill in the lower portion of your face, so your face is more balanced
Diamond
Shape Face:
Women with diamond-shaped faces should look for
earrings with long, elegant curves. Both dangle and hoop styles accentuate this
type of face. Choose earrings with soft curves to minimize any sharpness around
the cheekbones or jaw line. Those individuals with diamond-shaped faces should
avoid wearing dangle earrings that also feature a diamond shape. These pieces
will make the lines of the face appear exaggerated and are not generally flattering.
Oval Shaped Face: Lucky you! You can wear almost any shape, but triangular earrings or simple studs will show off your lovely cheekbones best!
Without earrings your outfit or make-up will not get
fulfilled. So when you are buying earrings give preference to your personal
style and choose earring which suits your face shape. Highlight your face shape
with right earrings to draw attention on your beauty.
