Earrings, Personalities and Face Shapes
A person’s choice in jewelry can say a lot about their personalities. A long as people don’t buy into every other fad and are sincere in their jewelry choices, jewelry can be one of the most effective ways to make a good, honest impression without having to say anything at all.
Earrings are especially important, albeit sometimes underrated. They add a new dimension to the part of you that people notice first – your face.
Therefore, it’s important you learn what works best for you.
Hoop Earrings
First, a little bit about hoop earrings and what they say about your personality, by Alice Newbold from The Telegraph.
If you thought we had reached peak ear piercing, think again. 40-something females are still paying for freshly punched holes to add extra edge to their looks. But while the trend has been the-more-studs-snaking-up-your-ear-the-better, now hoops are the focus. And like the ear parties before them, they are a carefully considered insight into a woman’s personality. Here’s what your hoop persona reveals about you…
The Stacker
Hoop size: A handful of tiny, delicate rings stacked neatly up the ear in all those fresh holes she has had punched in 2016.
Decoded: The aim of the hoop stacker is to ‘look’ nonchalant, as if it were a coincidence that all those rings happen to sit in harmony up the ear. In fact, the metallic circles punctuating her earlobes are not the result of spontaneous piercing, but are a curated project she has long pored over. Her sore ears have suffered for her art this year.
The Investment Buy
Hoop size: Large enough to see the embellishment or quality of the expensive metal.
Decoded: The upmarket hoop fan won’t reserve her hoops for the evening. She’ll use them as luxury exclamation marks on her monochrome day wear. Don’t be fooled, these hoops are a trophy symbol given the same thought as her Gucci Dionysus bag and backless loafers.
The Nineties Throwback
Hoop size: Ginormous!
Decoded: These XXL earrings hark back to the Nineties, when Lily Allen’s hoops and trainers became a bigger taking point than her music. Girls slicked back their hair in high pony tails to let hoops stand out as a punctuation mark with real ’tude, and now they are copying the same formula in 2016.
The Scandi Minimalist
Hoop size: A matching pair of plain hoops worn in the standard piercing hole. The gold or silver circles should be no more than an inch in width.
Decoded: Discreet hoops that laugh in the face of ear parties and larger-than-life styles. The pared-back hoop wearer knows that in five years’ time, her hoops will look timeless. In fact, she might not even take them out until then.
Hoop earrings have successfully leaped out of the ‘70s back into contemporary fashion, and that’s a good thing.
Another trend that has recently caught our attention is the single earring. As the name suggests, it is the trend of wearing just one earring. However bizarre, this trend is catching on like wildfire in certain circles.
Gemstone Earrings
Kate Finnigan reports for The Telegraph
Throwing Things Off is a thing in fashion right now. In a recent interview with The Telegraph, Kate Moss said she likes to wear a skinny scarf with a shirt because ‘it throws it off a bit’. No violence is involved: it simply means that her shirt will look less expected, a bit more spontaneous, with one of her skinny scarves.
The single-earring trend, which has been evolving for a few seasons now, is another perfect example of how to TTO. Jeweller Delfina Delettrez was one of the original just-the-one-earring trendsetters, alongside Dior and Céline. As a regular loser of odd earrings, it’s been music to my, um, ears. That lonely rose-gold hoop is no longer forlorn and destined for the bin, but an infinitely useful, of-the-moment piece. Should I ever choose to wear a shockingly conventional (gasp) pair of earrings, a stud in the extra piercing on my left lobe is a useful way to TTO.
Quite interesting, wouldn’t you say! Are you looking to TTO to shake things up a bit this season? Well, we are!
Now – are you wondering just which earring styles look best on you? A good set of earrings should highlight your best features. While some styles might bring out the best in you, some might not make that much of a difference. Knowing which style has the biggest impact on how you want to look is as helpful as deciding which style to wear to a certain occasion.
This excerpt from a post on JewelryWise.com tries to help you find the best match in earrings.
Drop Earrings
Round
If you have a round face shape, it’s circular in nature, with the widest point of your face being the cheeks. A round face doesn’t taper narrowly down to the chin. To balance a round face, longer, dangling earrings look great. Styles to consider include:
- An elongated teardrop.
- Chains with a bauble on the end.
- A cascade of gemstones.
- Women with round faces may want to avoid round shapes that echo the face shape.
Narrow
A narrow face shape is long and not wide. The jaw, cheeks and forehead are all about the same width. To add fullness to a narrow face, choose:
Round shapes, such as pear studs, round diamond studs, gemstone studs, or any “button” style of earring, including pearl clusters and gemstone clusters.
If you like long, dangling earrings, look for styles that have round shapes incorporated into them. Anything that adds a soft, round shape will bring out your cheekbones.
Square
A square face shape is equally long as it is wide — the cheekbones and jawline are the same width. Remember not to wear wide earrings, they will just add to the width of your face. Look for:
Rounder shapes — pearls, button styles and dangling circular forms.
Hoop earrings. Up the drama for evening and wear large hoops — they’re fashionable, glamorous and flattering.
Avoid square or diamond shapes.
Square Earrings
Oval
Lucky oval! Just as almost any eyeglass style looks good on you, the oval face shape looks great wearing most earring styles. If you want to emphasize your classic looks, consider:
Long, dangling earrings that also have an oval shape.
A long teardrop style.
Wider styles also help to cancel out any notion of narrowness in your face. Add to your jewelry wardrobe often, and experiment with all the earring styles and shapes.
Heart
A heart face is narrowest at the chin, getting gradually wider, with the widest area being the forehead. Accentuate this shape with:
Long earrings that feature curving shapes — they’ll accentuate your prominent cheekbones.
Ornate chandelier earrings.
Long teardrops in metal, gemstone or diamond styles — they can soften the look of a pointier chin.
Diamond
You can recognize a diamond face shape by the prominent cheekbones. The forehead area and the chin are narrower than the center of the face. As with the heart shape, you will accentuate those cheekbones with:
Long, dangling earrings that feature softly curving shapes.
Avoid earrings with a diamond shape — they won’t harmonize as well with your face and might actually overemphasize the widest part of your face.
Finally, here is a visual guide to finding the perfect earring style for your face shape. But think of these merely as guidelines really – there’s absolutely no reason why you shouldn’t wear a particular set of earrings that you fancy, even if the whole internet says otherwise!

Designing Diamond Engagement Rings
We are all artists. By virtue of being human, we are capable of vast imagination and delicate skill. This enables us to create. It is inherent in us to create and invent. We have come a long way from inventing the wheel and today every field of creativity is specialized. Creativity and invention has diversified into every aspect of human existence, and jewelry is not an exception – not by a long shot.
Custom jewelry is a habitat for creativity. Wyatt Austin and other reputable jewelers offer you the ability to get custom jewelry made from designs of your own. Most of the time, all you have to do is visit and share your ideas and/or sketches, and a team of designers will get right on it. It might take anywhere between a couple of days to a few weeks to have your custom jewelry items made from scratch.
Designing your own engagement ring ensures that it is unique, one-of- a-kind and holds much more sentimental value than something taken off the shelf, so to speak. If the process seems overwhelming to you or you’re reluctant to come up with your own designs, we might have something to help you get started.
Set a budget
While you don’t have to start here, it is a good place to start. Setting a budget narrows down your options and that is a good thing. How much you want to spend is completely relative. Setting a high budget will accommodate all you imagine the design to turn out like but you should also not feel pressured into spending more that you truly want to. Foregoing unnecessary details by setting a budget is one of the best things that could happen.

Setting
What do you think your significant other will cherish more – a solitaire or a multi-stone setting? That’s for you to find out or guess, but this comprises the next most important step of designing a custom diamond engagement ring. You might as well rack your brain cells and come up with something no one has ever seen before.
Stone
The easiest way is to ask your jeweler for a catalog of stones they currently provide. Wyatt Austin has an immense collection of loose stones cut to perfection. Browse through the selections to find the most suitable diamond, keeping in mind the price and quality. You may also want to opt for other precious stones such as sapphire, ruby or emerald.

Rapport
Maintain a healthy rapport with your jeweler and make use of available support. Never shy away from asking questions that pop in your head. Remember, it is the responsibility of the jeweler to provide you with all necessary information. Reputable jewelers will try their best to make sure that the process of creating custom jewelry is both rewarding and enjoyable to you. Do not forget to iron out any specifics, pricing and expectations before finalizing the order.
These are, of course, just to provide an outline of what the designing process should go like.

Matching Your Jewelry and Clothes is an Art and We Will Teach You
Here’s the secret – matching your jewelry symmetrically with your outfit gets a little mundane and plastic-y. So there’s a nifty little trick we like to follow to get a perfectly complementing ensemble – match your jewelry to your clothes BUT indirectly. What does that mean? Read on.
Skin Tone
The key to matching your jewelry to your clothes is to match it with your skin tone. Consider all the metals – yellow gold, white gold, silver, platinum – and the gems – diamonds, sapphires, emeralds – each item of jewelry exhibits exuberance unique to the materials used. Sadly, not all energies complement everybody but that’s how it is for everybody. You just have to try it all and find what matches you best. Skin tone plays one of the biggest roles in deciding which hues and arrangements complement you the best, and so does the color of your eyes, and your hair.
Occasion
Where you’re going and what you’re doing has to have an impact on what you wear. It’s not just enough to dress for the occasion, you also need to accessorize in accordance. How this helps in matching your jewelry and clothes is by streamlining the purpose to put them on. Simple and effective.

You
Your whole ensemble should accentuate your best features. What this means is that it should draw attention toward your best features and away from the not-so- good and better-left- untouched (everybody has flaws). So if you are struggling to keep the belly fat in check, go for drapes. Similarly if you have a beautiful neck or décolletage that you want to show off, experiment with stacked necklaces and chokers.
Outfits
Buy jewelry not only because it matches a certain outfit but because it matches several. You should be able to wear each item of jewelry with different outfits and for different occasions. This is where jewelry sets come in. You buy a set of matching jewelry pieces or you make your own collection that matches perfectly. Now you can mix them up and put them on in conjunction with different outfits and you have an ensemble that matches perfectly.

Number
Don’t over-accessorize. DO NOT over-accessorize, especially if you want your accessories to match with your outfit. The more things you have to match, the harder it is to match them. Keep a limit on the number of accessories you wear by always trying to remove just one item of jewelry before leaving the house. This might sound counter intuitive but it’s not. If you can without, do without. It will only make it easier to perfect the final look.
