Looking to give your personal style an instant lift? Hoop earrings add a little bit of spice into any outfit. From casual looks to the most glamorous gowns, these are the types of accessories you’d like to wear if you want to make a statement. You better make sure your earring display tools at home have some space ready for them when you buy a bunch of pairs after reading this article!



Go for the classic look

You simply can’t go wrong with a basic thin-band type of hoop earrings. This style draws the eye downwards, a great technique to slim down one’s neck and emphasize a high neckline. Your choice always depends on the look that best matches your personal style, but hoop earrings in solid gold and silver will always be safe picks for their classic appeal.

We have a ton of hoop earrings you can choose from if you’re ready to dive into this earring style.

Consider your hair length and style when deciding between sizes

A tiny downside to wearing hoop earrings is that they can get easily get tangled up with big hairstyles, particularly those with larger hoops. Think carefully about the hairstyle you plan on wearing before you decide to put on your jewelry. If you want to try something big and bold, it’s best to have your hair tied back or placed in a bun. Also, watch out if you’re wearing a huge pair of hoops as you don’t want to have your earrings get accidentally hung from objects!



Experiment with styles depending on the occasion

The wide range of sizes available when buying earrings affords you the opportunity to explore various styles and effects. For a subtle look perfect for daily wear, go for “huggies” which are small hoop earrings that “hug” your earlobes as they are made to cling close to your skin. For date nights or parties, why don’t you go for something more dramatic, like studded hoop earrings?

Make sure to pick the right jewelry display tools for your hoop earrings

Now that we’ve given you advice for when you shop for your hoop earrings, let us now share with you an important tip all jewelry lovers must know.

It is important to have the right holders to hold and store your precious valuables. In the case of hoop earrings, you must let them hang loose and free so that they don’t get caught up with your other jewelry pieces. Make sure to pick something sturdy so they don’t topple over and that they have enough hooks or prongs for your collection.

Wearing big and bold jewelry pieces requires a delicate balance. You wouldn’t want them to overwhelm your outfit but just give it the right amount of flair to give you extra style points as you go about your day.

If your jewelry display collection lacks chunky pieces, this article may just push you into getting them.

Stick to one chunky piece

Piling on too many jewelry pieces can leave you looking cluttered and busy. You’re better off keeping things simple by sticking to one chunky piece and wearing only that or a couple of delicate pieces to complement the look.

Pair up your chunky necklace with a simple neckline

Keeping with the theme of balance, when wearing a chunky necklace you need to pair it up with a neckline with a simple design. Ditch the frills, the peter pan collars, and cowl necks if you want to wear a chunky neckpiece. For more impact, you can go with a high neckline or a low neckline so people can focus on your necklace.


Choose neutral shades for your clothes to go with your pieces

Simplicity is key. You will look more polished if you pair up your chunky jewelry with neutral shades. This puts the spotlight on your jewelry, as brightly-colored clothes would take away attention from your accessories. The same goes for your nail polish and makeup. Better keep things subdued so they don’t create a look that clashes.

Mind your face’s shape when choosing earrings

Unfortunately, not everyone will look good with big and ornate earrings. Once again, it is about keeping things balanced. You can look at the diagram above to see which types of earrings would go well with your face shape. Lucky for you if you have an oval shape as any style of earring will look good on you.


Simple hairstyles are a great match for big, ornate jewelry pieces

You wouldn’t want your hairstyle to clash with your chunky jewelry. Better keep your hair straight and polished; leave the big, bouncy waves to when you’re wearing dainty accessories. A nice, chic updo also works as it would keep the hair away from your ears and face which would make observers keep their focus on your jewelry.


Don’t forget to avail yourself of a new, sturdy jewelry holder for your chunky jewelry. Visit Nile Corp today to see your options.

How to Get the Perfect Jewelry for Your Skin Tone

Learn to pick the best pieces that are ideal for your color.

Shopping for jewelry, whether fashion or fine jewelry, is an ideal way to de-stress for women. For some ladies, treating oneself the best looking piece on the necklace display can make them feel better and more empowered. But what if the most gorgeous necklace in the store doesn't match your skin tone?

Today, we are giving you some tips on how to get the perfect piece from the jewelry display that brings out the beauty of your skin to make you feel more confident.

Determining your skin tone.

The first thing you should do is to find out what your skin tone is. Go to a well-lit place, preferably in natural light. Then check your wrists to see the color of your veins. If they appear bluish or purple, you have a cool skin tone. On the other hand, if the veins appear greenish, you have a warm skin tone. If some veins look blue and some appear green, then your skin tone is neutral.

Matching metal finishes with skin tones

Cool skin tones match well with silver, white gold, and platinum. On the other hand, warm skin tones look perfect with yellow gold, copper, and brass. So anything white and silvery is for the cools, while anything yellowish is for the warms. As for neutral skin tones, both the white and yellow metals are perfect. Rose gold jewelry is ideal for all types of skin tones.

Matching gemstones with skin tones

Matching with gemstones is much like matching with the metal finishes. Crystals that are blue, purple, and red look perfect with cool skin tones. On the other hand, stones with colors such as yellow, orange, and brown are perfect for warm skin tones. Neutral skin tones will look good in gemstones of any color.
