Statement Earrings for the Holidays

Coming to you late this week friends, but I'm here! The holiday season rush is getting the best of me, but today I'm on the blog chatting about statement earrings you will want to wear for the holidays and beyond!

I personally feel that jewelry makes a great gift for your girl gang, whether it's your friends, mom, sister, etc. Statement necklaces are slowly fading away, but statement earrings are on the rise and make a fun addition to any outfit! I've curated a list of five popular earring styles you will see this season. They're perfect for upcoming holiday parties and events, or can be worn as a standout accessory to work.

Whether you're gifting a pair or just treating yourself, you won't want to miss these pretty styles. Here's a few budget-friendly options to swoon over:

THE ACRYLIC

Holy retro. I am LOVING the acrylic earring trend because it's so vintage. Bright colors, mixed marbles and fun shapes; this accessory is DEFINITELY a statement! Acrylic earrings can be more on the expensive side depending on where you shop for them, but I've found really cute, affordable options at Forever 21.

THE TASSEL

This season is probably not the first time you've seen tassel earrings, but each year, they take on a different look. Although you can still find beaded tassels, I've been seeing more and more fabric-style tassels. Whether you like a longer tassel or a layered tassel, you can find deals on these at H&M and LOFT.

THE SIMPLE HOOP

You know what they say- big hoops, big dreams! (Okay, you're right, it's just me that says that.) Hoops are making a comeback, but instead of being obnoxious and blingy, today's hoops are super simple with minimalistic details. I'm talking thin metals with the occasional small charm. Crystal Ship Jewelry makes some of the cutest simple hoops I've seen, plus you'd be supporting a small business, so it's a win-win! Shop some cute pairs here.

THE SPARKLY

Talk about a holiday must-have. If you have lots of Christmas parties on your calendar, you'll want to splurge on a pair of sparkly earrings. Bold gems or simple crystals can really dress up any outfit. I love this glitter pair from Francesca's. With New Year's Eve coming up as well, you'll have plenty of excuses to add a little sparkle to your jewelry collection.

THE GEO SHAPE

Along with acrylic earrings, you will be seeing some more retro styles in geometric shapes. Think triangles, ovals and octagons in busy patterns and unique colors. I love these tortoise triangles. This trend is straight out of the 80s and I'm living for it. You can find affordable options at Forever 21 and LOFT as well.

If you're still hunting for a great gift, stores like T.J. Maxx and Target have statement earring gift sets that would fit perfect under the tree!
