Fact: Gold Hoop Earrings Make Every Outfit Better
The OG statement earring is back in a big way.
It's a scientific fact that a glint of gold hoop earrings makes every outfit better.* Major shoulder danglers have been the street style rage thanks to Proenza Schouler, Alexander McQueen, and Rebecca de Ravenel, but we're toning it down this spring for the OG of statement earrings: classic gold hoops.
Currently, we're hurting for a pair of Jennifer Fisher's coveted hoops, which have been spotted on all your girl crushes: Rihanna, Adwoa Aboah, Selena Gomez, Kerry Washington, etc. etc. The it-girl jewelry designer (with a sick Instagram, btw) even created an oversized version inspired by our very own fashion director, Samira Nasr. Since gold hoop earrings have been around since ancient times, you can cop the ultimate throwback at every price point. Shop our favorites, ahead.
* We shouldn't have to asterisk this, but just to be safe: we have no idea what scientific studies have proven (or disproven) whether hoop earrings increase chicness.
