Earrings

Earrings give final touch to your look. They complete your fashion statement.

There are earrings for all occasions – The board room, top Model walk the ramp at the Fashion award, casual outings, your wedding ceremony, a night on the town, or a day at the beach front. The first pair of earrings has been dated back to 2500 BC. Only the wealth and those of royal lines could afford expensive jewelry back then.

There are all types of earrings with diamond – hoop earrings, stud earrings, button earrings, dangle earrings, chandelier earrings, and droplet earrings to name just a few. Earrings come in all types of materials and metals. Gold, pearls, silver, plastics, copper, gemstones, diamonds, paste, bakelite, faux stones, or glass. The list goes on and on.

During the 1950s earrings were glow and sleek. By the 1960s earrings had become enjoyable and innovative. Texture and color was very important. Prior to the 1960s earrings were dedicated to either evening wear or day wear with the evening wear earrings being more graceful. During the 1960s this all changed when the difference between what was acceptable for evening or day faded away. By the 1970s we had entered an “everything goes” style to earrings and pierced ears had made a comeback. Women were buying earrings in large quantities for every occasion. Today it’s not easy to find someone who doesn’t have pierced ears. Today men are as attracted in earrings as women. Men often prefer studs or small hoops; they may wear one earring, two or more depending on the individual’s tastes. Children now get their ears pierced often at a very young age, even sometimes as babies. Women may have anywhere from one set of holes to piercing right up the ear. The fashion of earrings has come a long way over the years and its here to stay!!!
