How To Choose The Most Suitable Earrings To Match Your Face Shape

Round face

The main feature of a round face is the circular shape that is as
wide as it is long and is usually characterised with a round chin.
Earrings with lean, long and angular curved lines can be the perfect
choice because it helps in elongating a round face. You can wear
drop earrings in dangles, ovals and oblongs. Even an angular stud
earring will look good on a round face. Make sure that you steer
clear of small studs and hoops. Always avoid wearing chunky large
earrings.

Oval face

The main feature of an oval face is the forehead which is usually
wider as compared to the chin. The hairline is gently rounded and
the approximate length is equal to one and a half times width.
Celebrities like Charlize Theron, Jessica Alba, Kate Hudson and
Beyonce Knowles have an oval face. If you also have an oval face
then earrings with soft shapes like studs, ovals and teardrops will
look good on you. People with a face shape like this can wear almost
any design. You can always do some experiment with different styles
and decide what looks good on your face.

Heart shaped face

Heart shaped faces are usually narrow at the jawline and wide at the
forehead or cheekbone. It is very much similar to an oval face but
below the cheekbones it is narrower due to which the chin looks more
pointed. Stars like Sophie Dahl, Reese Witherspoon and Scarlett
Johansson have a heart shaped face. If you feel that you also have a
face shape like them, wear earrings with a wide bottom. You can try
out earrings that have a soft curve like ovals or teardrops. Pyramid
style earring can work best on your face shape because it is wide at
the bottom. Always avoid wearing earrings that are heart shaped.

Diamond face

The main features of a diamond shaped face are broad and strong
forehead with square hairline and angular jaw. Such faces are wide
at the cheeks but narrow at the forehead and chin. Katherine Hepburn
and Sophia Loren are celebrities with a diamond face. If you also
have a face shape like this, wear earrings that are less in length
and more in width. A straight line and curves combination will work
best. You can also try studs and small drop earrings.

Oblong face

An oblong face is very much similar to a square face but it is
longer and not very wide. Simple studs and chandelier style earrings
look very good on an oblong face. However, angular and long earrings
must be avoided. Few celebrity examples are Terri Hatcher, Sarah
Jessica Parker and Angelina Jolie. Looks can be enhanced to a great
extent with the right type of earrings. This article talks about the
different face shapes and earrings that will and won’t suit each
face type.

Square face

The main features of a square face are broad and strong forehead,
square hairline and angular jaw. Earrings with a round and angular
edge will work best because it will help in softening a square face.
If you have a square face, avoid wearing angular style, large
earrings so that your face doesn’t look wider. Instead wear hoops
and medium to long styles. Celebrities like Demi Moore, Katie
Holmes, Geena Davis and Salma Hayek have a somewhat square face.
