Okay, so I have to tell you about one of my favourite accessories, huggie earrings. You’ve probably seen them everywhere lately, right? Celebs, influencers, and basically everyone on Instagram is wearing them... I think they’re such a perfect balance of chic and low-key, and they’ve become a go-to for a quick jewellery pick-me-up. But, if you’re sitting there like, “WAIT, what exactly are huggie earrings, and how am I supposed to wear them?”—don’t worry, I’ve got you! Huggie earrings are those cute little hoops that sit snugly around your earlobe, giving you that perfect balance between subtle and stylish. Their close fit makes them super comfortable to wear all day, whether you're running errands or heading out for a night with friends. They’re tiny but pack a lot of charm, and honestly, they look great with anything!
How to wear huggie earrings?
Here’s the fun part—gold huggie earrings are seriously versatile and one of my all-time faves. Sure, you can wear them in your lobe piercings (which is definitely the go-to), but why stop there? If you're feeling a bit more adventurous, pop them into other ear piercings like the helix, forward helix, or even the tragus for that extra touch of cute and trendy style! They pair perfectly with an ear cuff earring or even a beautiful, simple gold stud for a chic layered look. Whether you're going for a casual daytime vibe with a chunky sweater and jeans or dressing them up for dinner with a sleek evening outfit, there’s no wrong way to style gold huggie hoops. Plus, they’re super comfy for sensitive ears, and I love mixing and matching with gold dangle earrings or thicker chunky hoops to create my own unique style!
How to put in huggie earrings?
I aways say that before you pop your huggie hoops in, it helps to know what kind of fastening they have. Some have a butterfly back, and others have a hinged back, and that completely changes the whole look. Here’s a quick guide:
-
Butterfly back huggie earrings: I find these are super easy—just like putting in a regular pair of gold stud earrings. Take off the butterfly clasp, slide the post through your piercing, and secure the clasp at the back.
-
Hinged back huggie earrings: These can be a little trickier at first, but once you get the hang of them, they are pretty easy! Open the hinge, pop the bar through your piercing, and then click it into place. It might take a bit of practice, but trust me, you’ll get it!
