How to Buy an Earrings Wardrobe

Earrings add polish and drama to any outfit, and these inexpensive pieces of jewelry can easily change your look and enhance your style. By buying a few basic earrings and a few novelty pieces, you can create an earrings wardrobe to boost your style.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Invest in a few high quality pairs of earrings. Simple diamond or pearl studs look great with casual outfits, business attire or formal wear. These two basic pairs serve as the foundation of your earrings wardrobe.

2. Find simple hoop earrings in silver and gold. These pairs don't need to be costly, but they coordinate with almost any outfit and add a little flair to your earrings wardrobe. Just be sure to buy hoops in proportion to your height--smaller hoops if you're shorter and larger hoops if you're taller.

3. Buy a few pairs of fun, dangling earrings. You can find unique pieces online, at antique malls and at craft fairs. There is so much variety in dangling earrings that you can use these purchases to show off your personality through your earrings wardrobe.

4. Get at least one pair of dramatic duster, dangling or chandelier earrings to wear with formal attire. This pair should add drama and glamour to any little black dress, rounding out your earrings wardrobe for every occasion.

Tips & Warnings

• Be sure to buy sterling silver and high quality gold earrings if you have sensitive ears; these pieces are also more durable and don't add significantly to the earrings' cost.
• Consider making your own earrings. Many craft stores hold earring-making classes and sell simple supplies to get you started in creating your own pieces.

Usually I'll just get those affordable and stylish earrings from the internet, such as this great earrings website: http://www.earringsplanet.com/
