Shoulder grazers vs studs We’re all ears – our buyers discuss the great earring conundrum

Feeling the need for some new earrings, but not sure whether to opt for an oversized statement style or a pair of subtly stylish studs? Our accessory buyers Irene Yu and Sara Wong put forward the case for their favourite ear candy.

Sara Wong: “Shoulder-grazing earrings have an impressive way of instantly elevating plain outfits – whether it be your daily tee and jeans uniform, or a simple black evening dress. You can wear the same wardrobe staples on repeat if you have a handful of statement earrings on hand to switch them up. Plus, the elongated style is great for lengthening the face – a particularly flattering accessory for those with a rounder shape.”

Irene Yu: “Subtlety is so often underrated. Not every fashion accessory needs to be loud to make an impact, and the right pair of stud earrings – such as Anton Heunis’ crystal pearl cluster – is the perfect example. This is not just applicable for daytime: when it comes to special events, studs are a timeless, elegant and (huge plus!) painless choice – meaning they won’t end up in your clutch before the party ends. And comfort always trumps, right?”
