These 8 Ear Piercing Trends Are Having A Major Moment

Including one which may help with your migraines and anxiety. - by Ruby Cotton

Aside from the obvious attribute of blessing us with our sense of hearing, our ears also double as a spectacular vessel, crying out to be bedazzled in beautiful jewels (best not to fact check this as the definition of ‘ear’ in the dictionary). Little wonder then, statement ear candy is having a serious moment.

From our fave celebs such as Margot Robbie draped in pearls on the red carpet, to cool-girl hoop stacks on the streets of Copenhagen, here's our round-up of the top earring trends we are loving right now.

Dainty Diamonds

The happy medium for those wanting 'nothing but something'. These gorgeous dainty diamonds are enough to level up any look from formal to casual without entirely stealing the show.

Pearls

The natural and organic shaped pearl earrings provide a soft and delicate finish. Paired with a gentle, tousled, beachy wave = perfection.

For all things pearl earrings, we are loving Ensea. Hand-made in Australia, check them out here.

Daith

The daith is the cartilage fold just above your ear canal. Aside from looking pretty, daith piercings are associated with migraine and anxiety relief as they mimic acupuncture pressure points.

Hoop Stack

Big on the stylish streets of Copenhagen, the hoop stack is the perfect hybrid of feminine meets cool. *ahem* If we may interrupt you mid-stack with this very important reminder... keep the hoops hollow and light to prevent any unwanted droopy ear lobes.

Dangling chains

The perfect way to make an impact with your earrings with only one hole per ear. We love these fluttery, long earrings. They flow beautifully with your hair out, and flatter your face with your hair pulled back. Can't lose.

Minimalist

Not to be confused with the clear, plastic stud earrings you were forced to wear to school with your uniform. The minimalist is a fail-safe style move however it is anything but boring. Think less is more.

The Supersized Hoop

The hoop isn't a new earring trend, however we are seeing it all over Instagram and on our fave celebs in XXL. Annnnd we are obsessed.

Two-In-One

Two statement earrings on the one lobe. This is the perfect style if you are limited to two piercings per ear but want to make a statement. There is so much freedom with styling this look, playing with colours, sizes, textures and different shapes.
