Statement earrings are basically the best accessory ever! Amiright?! Add leather to the mix and it’s a no brainer. Leather earrings are extremely lightweight and versatile. Here are 5 Tips for Styling Leather Statement Earrings featuring Sela Designs.
Sela Designs is a non-profit jewelry company that donates all profit to charities working to end human trafficking, provide orphan care and show mercy to the poor. I started Sela Designs as a way to give back and to provide a very practical way for women to support the causes and charities they believe in. We can change the world just by wearing and gifting handmade jewelry.
1. Let the earrings be the star
Leather statement earrings are well, big, so watch the proportions of your other accessories. A choker length, simple necklace or long necklace pairs really well with statement earrings. Pairing the earrings with other simple and neutral pieces will let the earrings take center stage.
Another option, which I love, is to skip the other accessories and just wear earrings. You don’t have to wear more. Leather statement earrings are enough to pull an outfit together.
2. Denim + Leather
Leather and denim were made for each other. Whether it’s a denim jacket or jeans and a blazer, leather statement earrings are a great way to dress up an otherwise casual outfit. The earrings are like the icing on the cake that takes the whole thing to the next level.
3. Add a pop of color
Monochromatic looks are great, but sometimes it feels boring. Have to wear an all-black outfit to work? Use statement earrings to add in a pop of color and show your personality. This is also a great way to expand a neutral wardrobe.
4. Remember your frame
I’m 5’7″ with an average build. My sister-in-law is 5’1″ and very petite. We both like statement earrings, but we don’t wear the same size. My earrings look pretty funny on her and hers get lost on me. Look for statement earrings that fit your frame.
This is not to say that another woman who is a completely different height than me cannot wear the exact same earrings! It’s only an example as everybody is different and proportions will change the look.
The Cora Leather Earrings from Sela Designs are, in my opinion, the best pair of statement earrings that work for the majority of women in all shapes and sizes. Many others are available in two sizes to offer great versatility.
5. Pick a color that’s different from your hair
Have really dark hair? If you want your statement earrings to really be the star of the show go with a light color. Because my hair is so dark, black statement earrings get lost. White, blush, gray, soft browns, and mustard all pop next to dark hair.
Blonde? Try a smooth, black leather! It looks absolutely stunning. You can pull off a lot so don’t be afraid to try something new.
If you have dark hair and you want to wear dark earrings, try pulling your hair back. Not only will this dress up your look, but it will really give your leather statement earrings a place to shine.
Do you wear statement earrings? It’s such a great way to elevate your style without a lot of effort. One accessory can change a whole look!
