Many people don’t feel comfortable styling themselves and sometimes it just takes practice to create that perfect look you’re going for. We have compiled a list of some of our most stylish dangling earring designs because they look amazing and go with everything!
We have both shorter styles and longer styles of earrings in our collection. Sometimes people get confused with the different lengths and styles of earrings, so before we get started we want to make sure you have a basic understanding of all of the styles.
Stud Earrings- Stud earrings do not drop below the earlobe. The jewelry design secured onto a post that is fastened to the ear with another piece on the back of the earlobe
Dangling Earrings- The piece hangs below the earlobe, but it does not move much when you walk or swing your head.
Extension Earrings — These are some of our longest styles and, just like the name suggests, they extend the length of the earring. This allows some movement during wear and many people enjoy the way they swing forth and back or side to side. The extension earrings hang below your earlobe, and the length varies with some falling a little longer than others.
We hope that clears up any confusion about the major differences between the different styles of earrings. Now that you understand the styles, this will help you choose the right type of earring according to your needs.
