Hoop, There It Is: 14 Variations on the Current Earring Craze

You may have noticed an influx of hoop earrings as of late. They’ve been a mainstay on runways, in magazine spreads, and especially IRL (in real life) on the street. I blame the resurgence of ’90s trends (and by blame, I mean thank) for the rising popularity, though in my opinion, the hoop earring has and always will be a vital jewelry box component. A sleek pair of silver or gold hoops is great—the must-have style is a yes in all sizes—but variation is exciting, and the pieces I’ve curated below are prime examples of that. With interesting shapes, twisting and swirling lines, botanical accents, and colored gemstones, these are the hoops for those looking to expand their collection beyond the basic essentials.
