Earrings 101: Your Simple Guide to Choosing the Right Pair
Ever fallen in love with a pair of earrings… only to feel they somehow don’t look right on you?
The secret is not just style it’s choosing earrings that suit your face shape.
At Zevarika, we believe the right earrings don’t just match your outfit they highlight you.
Here are your super simple guide to finding your perfect match.
Step 1: Find Your Face Shape
Pull your hair back and stand in front of a mirror. Take a good look at the outline of your face. Your mirror is your style coach for the day no filters needed!
Round Face: Almost as wide as it is long, with soft cheeks and a rounded jawline.
Oval Face: Longer than it is wide, with a forehead slightly wider than your chin and a soft jawline.
Square Face: Equal width and length, with a strong jawline and wide forehead.
Heart Face: Wide forehead that narrows down to a pointed chin.
Long Face: Much longer than it is wide, with forehead, cheeks, and jawline similar in width.
Step 2: Choose Earrings That Flatter You
Once you know your shape, here’s your match-making cheat sheet:
Round Face
✅ Best for You: Long, dangling earrings, geometric shapes (triangles, squares) to add contrast.
🚫 Skip These: Big round hoops or tiny studs, they can make your face look rounder.
Square Face

Long Face
✅ Best for You: Wide hoops, cluster earrings, chunky studs, or short drops to add width.
