Gold hoops are essential ear candy this season. And, well, pretty much every other season, as well.
The gilded accessories, which are available in any size and shape imaginable, from the mini hoop (lovingly referred to these days as the “huggie”) to the oversized iterations, are a must-have ear accessory — no matter one’s personal style.
Universally flattering, a great pair of hoop earrings, can elevate even the simplest of ensembles. Ready to really elevate your ear wardrobe? Opt for gold hoops of varying sizes lined up in side-by-side piercings.
Move over studs, these hoops are about to become the new go-to.
Smooth operators
If you love a hoop earring but hate the way they seem to catch and snag on pretty much everything, then a huggie hoop is for you. The petite style hugs the earlobe for a snug fit that nixes the possibility of snags. Plus, a pair like these simply named Huggie Earrings in 10-karat yellow gold from Michael Hill are lightweight and comfortable enough to be worn all day — and overnight, too. No end-of-day removal required.

Thin things
Think embracing a larger hoop size has to mean adding bulk? Think again. These slim styles, dubbed Flat Hoops, from the Vancouver-based brand Melanie Auld, prove that you can go bigger without going too bold. Available in gold vermeil or sterling silver, they’re the perfect pieces to pair with a low ponytail to ensure these chic earrings get all the adoration that they deserve.

Guilt-free goodies
Indulge in a guilt-free treat with these Croissant Dôme Earrings in gold vermeil from the Canadian brand Mejuri. The style are easy to put on/take off thanks to the post-and-back design, while the design boasts all the allure of the French baked good it’s inspired by, minus the calories. (Though we’re big fans of indulging in the real thing, too.)
