As referenced in a previous blog, The 5 Strategies That Are Getting Me Through The Day, I believe in wearing earrings every day. Yes, even during a pandemic. Even when you are home alone and no one can see you. Even when you are wearing sweats or exercise clothes. Even when you are with your kids. The little bit of shine near your face not only makes you look better, but makes you feel better too. Earrings make you feel dressed.
From something small to wear everyday at home alone, to bigger pieces for Zoom meetings, we have a little something for everyone. As a bonus, most of the pieces are really well priced.
Happy Shopping!

Lightweight, Everyday Earrings
Despite their bigger size, I’ve been wearing my wire hoops from World Market even when at home. They weigh nothing, make a statement, and fit well underneath my headphones. They are not currently available online, but the World Market gold disk hoops are a great alternative and the Cloverpost hoops are a similar style.

Stand-Out Earrings For Video Calls
My favorite earrings for video calls are my Larissa Loden maroon hoops. They are definitely some of my heavier earrings and I cannot wear them all day, but I only wear them for an hour or two during my Zoom appointments. The point is to put your most flattering color near your face, especially when the computer camera is washing you out!

Even when you are feeling low-maintenance and just want to wear athleisure, studs and a small 18″ pendant necklace still can make an impact. My Larissa Loden Mini Pirouette Necklace dresses up my outfit, even when I’m wearing just a Uniqlo tee and Athleta pants.
