The right jewelry can complement your outfit perfectly or show someone you love that you were thinking about them. Earrings are a common jewelry gift for other people or for yourself. When you go to buy earrings, make sure to keep in mind these three considerations.
- Color. Earrings come in many different colors with different metals, gems, and designs. When you buy earrings, color should be one of the top considerations. Think about not just what colors you like the best, but also how factors like skin tone influence what color of jewelry will complement a person best. Generally speaking, gold complements dark skin tones well and silver complements lighter skin tones, for example.
- Shape. Do you like the classic stud shape or are hoops more your style? Do you like long earrings that dangle or ones that stay close to the ear? Shape is another important factor to consider when buying earrings. One thing that people don’t consider when they buy earrings is how lifestyle can influence what makes for the best earrings. For example, people with babies and small children may not want dangling earrings because children like to pull on them.
- Style. Similarly to shape, the style of earrings is an important factor to consider when looking for the perfect jewelry, independent of color. Here at Heritage Estate Jewelry, we stock jewelry, including antique and vintage jewelry, of all different styles, shapes, and colors. If you want to buy earrings that have history or may be more unique than what you’d find in a regular jewelry store, be sure to come see what we currently have in stock.
