A Styling Guide by Shemisli of Huggie Earrings

Huggies, the charming, snug-fitting earrings, have become a fashion sensation in recent years. These delicate adornments gracefully embrace your earlobes, helix, rook, tragus, adding an elegant touch to your overall look without stealing the spotlight. Versatile and chic, huggies can be effortlessly paired with any ensemble, whether you're off to the office or enjoying brunch with friends. Join us as we dive into the world of huggie earrings, discovering what makes them unique and exploring creative ways to wear these trendy accessories.

What Exactly Are Huggies?

Huggies are petite earrings designed to "hug" your earlobes closely. Unlike traditional hoop earrings, huggies are smaller, thinner, and exquisitely delicate. Their comfortable fit allows for extended wear, making them the perfect choice for any occasion. While hoop earrings are typically reserved for the lower lobes, huggies can be worn in any lobe piercing, creating a distinctive hoop look that complements your style without overshadowing your outfit.

Huggies are not to be confused with stud earrings. Although both can be worn on the earlobes, huggies resemble small hoops, setting them apart from studs. These versatile earrings also differ from ear cuffs, as huggies come with a lever or clasp closure, allowing them to be securely fastened without the need for earring backs.

How to Style Your Huggies

The beauty of huggies lies in their versatility. They are available in various styles and sizes, making them suitable for different occasions and adaptable to various looks. Here are some creative ways to style your huggies:

Mix and Match Huggies: Embrace the trend of layering not only with necklaces but also with huggies. Stack huggies in multiple ear piercings to create a playful, boho look. Experiment with different styles and colors, and don't hesitate to wear different huggies on one ear for an asymmetrical statement.
Stack with Other Jewelry: Combine a huggie earring in a higher lobe piercing with a larger hoop in your main hole for added elegance. Whether you opt for understated silver or bold, shiny huggies, you can elevate your style by coordinating them with bracelets and necklaces.
Link and Dangle: Add some flair to your ear game by linking different huggies together for a dangling effect. Mix and match styles and colors to create a unique look, and if you ever get bored during the day, simply remove a few huggies to refresh your style.
Dress Them Up or Down: Huggies effortlessly adapt to any setting. Pair them with jeans and a T-shirt for a casual daytime look or complement an elegant dress for a night on the town.
Add Statement Charms: While huggies are simple and low-profile, you can elevate your style by attaching quirky charms or other accessories, giving your huggies a personalized touch, or downplaying by taking off the charm, and just wear them as simple huggies.

Popular Huggie Earring Styles

In addition to their versatile wearability, huggies come in a variety of styles. Here are some of the most common ones:

Hoop Huggies: A fusion of classic hoops and huggies, these earrings offer the comfort of huggies with a larger hoop diameter, making them an excellent choice for those who want both style and ease.

Plain Huggies: These minimalist huggies are perfect for daily wear and can be mixed and matched with other earrings for different occasions. They come in round, edge or tapered shapes. They also come in different texture, either smooth finish, or with patterns, like twisted, rope, beaded. They can also come in different shapes, like triangle, square, hexagon, pentagon.
