From infants to antsy pre-teenage girls, to adolescent boys, and women everywhere earrings are a steadfast trend in jewelry. Historically earrings have been around from the time of Pirates wearing their gold, to the ancient Asian customs, and middle eastern traditions. Earrings are a great adornment to the face and come in numerous styles.

Even if you don’t fancy the piercing of your ears for everyday wear, clip ons are still available for that special look. Earrings come in all shapes, sizes, colors, and styles from the traditional gold hoops to the eighties lime green chandeliers, crystal beaded dangles, diamond studs and pearl droplets on your lobes, earrings are a great accessory.

Sometime the perfect earring doesn’t always look as good on you as on a model or your friend. The reason for this is the great variation of facial shape. Here are a few pointers for picking out the perfect earring for you.

If you have round face you will want to avoid round button earrings but those types of earrings look great on thin faces. Try a dangling pendant earring or lots of flowing beads to add length and slim the face.

Large hoops are great for adding length and width to your face that emphasize your cheekbones and nose. If you think your face is too full or too round you may want to try an earring that is oval or rectangular in shape.

If you have a thin or narrow face you want to give the illusion of width. Pick something with horizontal lines or wide hoops.

Sharp features on your face are best softened with earrings with lots of curves, lots of beads on hoop earrings, or rounded earrings.
