How to Complement Sunglasses with Earrings

Need help with matching sunglasses with your earrings? Here are a few tips on how to pair these fashion accessories.

Some women feel that you cannot wear earrings when wearing a pair of glasses because they do not stand out that much. Because the latter can get all the attention, earrings do not become as noticeable. With that said, you need to be able to balance the two to avoid the dreaded fashion overkill. Do it right with these simple tips:

Choose sunglasses with thin temples.

One way to balance the look is to wear sunglasses with a minimalistic style. As with the Amelia Sunglasses, the temples are as thin as the frames. Because the sunglasses are not too flamboyant, your pair of earrings will definitely get noticed. You can wear a pair of minimalist drop earrings that match your minimalist fashion rings. As they say, less is always more.

 

Wear stud earrings with bold frames.

If you just have to wear a flamboyant pair of sunglasses, you can get away with wearing a pair of bold statement stud earrings. Let the glasses get the spotlight while the earrings act as the backup dancers. Not to worry though, as instead of the sunglasses overpowering your jewelry, these two complement each other.

 

Opt for longer earrings

Sunnies always look better when worn with longer earrings. The sunglasses draw attention to the middle area of your face, while the long earrings draw attention toward your neck and shoulders, creating a perfect balance. There are so many types of earrings you can choose from but keep in mind that they have to look parallel to your jawline. Great types to wear are drop earrings, chandeliers, and tassel earrings.

 

Get matching colors.

Lastly, make sure that both your sunglasses and earrings belong to the same color palette. Doing otherwise may look like there is so much going on in the area and a sure overkill. As much as possible, only one has to be the bold one, or both of them have minimalist designs.
