Different earrings on each ear: the new trend in jewellery
Fashion is constantly evolving, exploring new ideas and concepts to adapt to modern generations and the ever-changing pace of trends. In this process, jewellery must be innovative, finding creative and bold ways to showcase its pieces.
In this spirit, a new jewellery trend has emerged that breaks away from convention: wearing different earrings on each ear. This style carries a bold and rebellious touch, inspired by punk and new wave aesthetics. Would you dare to try it?
Ear stacking
In the late 2010s and early 2020s, mixing different earrings on each ear became increasingly popular. This trend draws inspiration from ear curation and ear stacking, which involve combining various earring styles on the same ear in a personalised way.
Both on the runway and in street style, this trend has gained a strong following, resulting in looks full of personality with a rebellious edge. Its versatility makes it suitable for everyday wear as well as special occasions, adding a fresh and original touch to any style.
How to mix and match different earrings on each ear?
Although this trend may seem difficult to pull off, especially if you don’t have multiple ear piercings, you can still achieve a harmonious and stylish look by following a few simple guidelines.
Find a common element
While the earrings can be different, having a common detail helps maintain a cohesive look. This could be the material, such as yellow gold, white gold, or silver, or the overall style—vintage, punk, classic, and so on.
Having a starting point when creating your look will ensure it doesn’t appear too messy or overly improvised.
Play with sizes, colours, and shapes
Wearing the same earrings in different sizes or playing with proportions, using a consistent colour palette or gemstones, and opting for complementary shapes or designs will help create a perfect and original look.
Inspiration based on your personal style
The best source of inspiration for creating your perfect combination of different earrings on each ear lies in your own personal style. It’s also important to adapt the earring set depending on the occasion: a more casual combination for everyday wear will differ from something suited for a special event, such as a formal gathering.
Ideas for pairing earrings
If you're not sure how to start pairing different earrings on your ears, here are some easy combinations that will suit any style.
Asymmetrical earring sets
A long earring or a crawler style in one ear and a small earring in the other is an easy way to start pairing earrings. You can also swap the main earring for a hoop. The result is minimalist, elegant, yet with a disruptive touch.
Hoops of different sizes
Another simple way to combine earrings is by using hoops of different sizes, following the same theme: smooth, textured, coloured, or with gemstones. The result is more eye-catching and daring, yet equally aesthetic.
Earrings with complementary shapes
Complementary shapes are very easy to wear, resulting in a fun and laid-back combination. Sun and moon, star and lightning bolt, heart and arrow, key and lock, circle and triangle… there are many options!
Combining piercings and earrings
If you have multiple piercings, mix your earrings with small studs, mini hoops... Also, play with the arrangement to achieve visual balance. This is one of the most popular and eye-catching options.
As you can see, the combinations are endless and will depend on your style and creativity when selecting earrings. Feel free to browse our website and check out our earring catalogue for inspiration and to join this trend.
