Best Earrings for Your Face Shape: Round, Oval, Square, Heart & Long Face Picks
22
items Here is the one trick that makes earring shopping easier: pick a shape that contrasts with your jawline. Angles and long lines soften a round face, curves soften a square one, teardrops balance a heart, and width fills out a long face. These Kendra S...
Heart-shaped faces get the most out of this one. The kite shape is narrow at the top and widest near the bottom, which adds visual weight right where a heart face tapers at the chin. The pink stone makes a plain tee look dressed up, and at $70 it is ...
Kendra Scott Elle Drop Earrings in Gold
A safe pick for an oval face, since oval can pull off almost any shape. Two pear-cut stones stack in a gradient and only hang 13.5 mm, so they read as a drop without dragging. The green is deeper in person than it looks online, and they pair well wit...
Mejuri Ada Gemstone Drop Studs in Lab Grown Emerald
For a round face, long and straight is the answer. This sparkly line hangs vertically and draws the eye down, so your face looks a bit longer and more defined. They are $98, and I would wear them with hair tucked back so the full line shows.
Kendra Scott Gracie Long Tennis Linear Earrings in Silver
Long faces do best with width, not length, and a big round pearl adds fullness at the sides. At 7 mm these are noticeable but never fussy. They work for the school pickup line and for a dinner out, and they will not tug on your lobes the way a dangle...
Mejuri Pearl Oversized Studs
If you have an oval face, this is the pair to splurge on when you want a real statement. Oval faces are balanced enough to carry the tiered, beaded look without it overwhelming you. It is a showpiece for a holiday party, and being a final sale item I...
Kendra Scott Serayah Statement Earrings in Vintage Gold
Square faces look best with soft, rounded lines to offset the jaw. These smooth pebble drops have no corners anywhere, and they hang about 25 mm, which gives a gentle vertical line. Mejuri calls them the denim of statement earrings and that fits, bec...
Mejuri Organic Dôme Pebble Earrings
A solid choice for a long face. A wide, flat stud adds width at the ear without adding any length, and the drusy catches light in a soft, glittery way. These are about the size of a button, so they sit close and stay out of the way of a scarf or a ha...
Kendra Scott Ellie Rose Gold Stud Earrings in Rose Gold Drusy
Round faces love angles, and the crossed X at the top gives you a sharp point, while the box chain falls 26 mm below it. The mixed gold and silver look means they go with whichever necklace I grab first. They feel sculptural and slinky at $118.
Mejuri Interconnected X Drop Earrings
The rounded oval outline is why this works for a square face. Anything with soft curves balances a strong jaw, and the iridescent center brings in a gentle shimmer. At $85 it is one of the easier ways to try a statement drop without the weight of a h...
Kendra Scott Daphne Drop Earrings in Gold
A heart-shaped face does well with a drop that gets wider toward the bottom. These start with a small trio of stones and end with a brilliant drop, which echoes the way a heart face narrows at the chin. They are hypoallergenic and dress up easily for...
Mejuri Simone Drop Earrings
Color is the point here, and an oval face can handle the biggest, most colorful stone out there. The marbled turquoise looks fresh against a white shirt or denim, and the vintage gold edge keeps it from feeling too flashy. At $64.97 it is an affordab...
Kendra Scott Mariah Drop Earrings in Vintage Gold
Another one for round faces. The straight edges and sharp corners of an emerald-cut stone add structure and make a soft, round face look more sculpted. At 5 x 3 mm they are small but crisp, and I like them for work days when I want something quiet bu...
Mejuri Lab Grown Sapphire Emerald Cut Studs
Something bold is worth trying if you have an oval face, since nearly any silhouette suits it. The Malika has a graphic, oversized silhouette and a wide choice of colors. It is $74.97, final sale, so choose the color you will wear most before you ord...
Kendra Scott Malika Statement Earrings
Soft curves again for a square face. The rounded knot at the top and a round pearl below break up a strong jawline with no hard edges. The hoop is only about 16 mm long, so it is lightweight, and it makes pearls feel a little less traditional.
Mejuri Dôme Brioche Pearl Drop Earring
Long faces want more width than length, and this domed stud gives you that. The opal glows without sparkling too hard, so it looks soft next to a face that needs fullness, not drama. It is a bestseller at $110 and does well worn every day.
Kendra Scott Davie 18k Gold Vermeil Stud Earrings in White Lab Grown Opal
Oversized drop studs suit an oval face well, and this is the pair I would pick for a polished look. The big sapphire measures about 10 mm wide by 16.5 mm long, so it has presence without dangling. They are waterproof and hypoallergenic, handy for any...
Mejuri Inès Drop Studs in Sterling Silver
Heart faces again, this time in a cooler tone. The widest part of the kite sits low, so the pair fills in below your cheekbones where a heart face is narrowest. Silver tones suit cooler skin, and at $70 it is easy to try.
Kendra Scott Elle Drop Earrings in Silver
A round face needs length, and this twisted drop hangs 38 mm but is only 7.5 mm wide, so the line is long and narrow. That vertical stretch makes your face look slimmer. It is $298, so I treat it as an investment pair for years of wear.
Mejuri Open Dôme Drop Earrings
The curved outline is the reason a square face looks softer in these. The open frame has no angles, so it does not echo the jaw. Because the metal is a choice, I would pick gold for warm skin tones, and at $90 it is a good evening pair.
Kendra Scott Sophee Crystal Drop Earrings
Chandelier-style earrings are classic for heart-shaped faces, because the ornate lower portion draws attention away from a narrow chin. This one comes in several stone colors, and the ornate gold has a vintage feel. At $69.97 it is a sale price, so I...
Kendra Scott Baroque Ella Drop Earrings in Vintage Gold
Pear shapes are teardrops, which is the shape recommended for a heart face. The stones graduate from small to large, so the visual weight lands low. They move slightly when you turn your head and catch the light nicely at holiday dinners.
Mejuri Ada Double Pear Drop Earrings
Think keepsake here: an oval face can wear this winding shape without any trouble. The Montana sapphire shifts between blue and green depending on the light. It costs $648 in solid 14k salmon gold, so I would call it a milestone gift, not an everyday...
Mejuri Open Dôme River Drop Earrings in Montana Sapphire
