How To Choose Handmade Earrings For Different Lifestyles

Earth Song Jewelry How To Choose Earrings For Different Lifestyles

Jewelry is an essential form of self-expression, but we often need to match our jewelry and wardrobe choices to our lifestyles. That might seem tricky at first, but this guide will help you find ways to continue expressing yourself while also choosing earrings that are practical for your chosen life.

After all, everyone deserves to be fully themselves while also fulfilling a certain role.

From parents to newborn children to ambitious career climbers, there are a lot of lifestyles to choose from, and earrings that match every choice.

Hopefully, after reading this article, you’ll have a better idea of how to find earrings you love that are still practical for all the things you want to do and places you want to go in life.

Earrings For New Parents

Being a new parent brings challenges, and changing your wardrobe is only one of them. Earrings can be much harder to wear around newborns and toddlers, not least because tiny hands are more likely to grasp at the pretty shiny things in your ears.

Regardless of what styles you wore before becoming a parent, it’s a good idea to switch to studs and post-style earrings that don’t dangle too much. The more secure back on post earrings can also help keep your earrings from falling out and becoming a toy or a choking hazard.

Choosing natural stone earrings will still give you plenty of room for self-expression. The many colors of the stones and the different styles in every earring can make it easier to celebrate who you are while still being practical to wear while you’re helping raise someone else.

Earrings For Experienced Parents

As your children start getting older, there is more room to play with different styles of earrings and be more expressive again. But it can be a challenge for parents to remember to take advantage of those freedoms now that they have them!

Get yourself a pair of dangling pendulums to celebrate having more options in your wardrobe again!

Self-expression should be indulged in at all phases of life, so while your children learn and grow into their own people, take a moment to remember your unique identity as well.

Earrings For The Office

Professional and stylish earrings can help you stand out in any office, but keeping suitable styles in mind for the job is important.

We shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, but dressing for the job you want is an integral part of work culture right now.

So think simple but stylish, like a pair of single-stone drop earrings or studs in classic black.

Want something a little more daring but still appropriate for workwear? Stick earrings are a little more exciting than a stud but more refined than longer dangling earrings.

Earrings For Service Jobs

Working in the service industry, especially if you work in a tipped profession like service or hosting at a restaurant, it can pay to bring a little more personality and flare to the job.

Dress up your work uniform with handmade dangling earrings that are a little longer or that sparkle and stand out on their own. Want something professional but still stylish? Onyx Dangling Earrings might be just the thing!

Earrings For Tradespeople

Working with your hands can be incredibly rewarding, but it calls for a wardrobe that matches your work. Don’t worry, jewelry lovers. There’s no reason trade professionals can’t indulge in some fine handmade jewelry.

If you work with tools, it’s probably a good idea to stick to earrings that sit close to your ears, like studs. But choose from a rainbow of colors to help make those smaller earrings more expressive.

If your trade is something that doesn’t require tools, like massage or chiropractic care, you can afford to mix in at least a few dangling earrings. Think of your earrings as one of the ways you express yourself and stand out from your competition at work.

Earrings For Working/Recreating Outdoors

Working outside, you might not be thinking as much about your appearance as working in an office with dress code requirements or in a job where your appearance has a significant impact on your income.

But, there’s no reason you can’t express yourself a little on the job!

Working outside, especially if you’re working with power tools or animals, it’s a good idea to keep your jewelry a little more subtle. That means stud earrings or, occasionally, smaller dangling earrings that are less likely to cause a problem.

Formal Earrings And Earrings For Socialites

Socialites and professions where you need to attend many social events like conferences, book releases, and other significant events call for a bolder take on jewelry and handmade earrings.

Pair larger dangling earrings like my Pendulum earrings with a matching Lariat necklace. Take a bold new approach to hoops with an added stone or a diamond-shaped hoop instead of the classic circle.

Or, stand out with a subtler look combined with eye-catching color that’s sure to be a crowd-pleaser.

These events are where you want to stand out, so you want earrings that are bigger, bolder, and reflect your personality well. Think of your earrings as part of your first impression. What message do you want to send?

Customizing your jewelry for work, fashion, and practicality doesn’t have to be daunting. Knowing what to look for and what’s expected in different settings will help you find the options that look good and suit your unique personality and taste.

Of course, feel free to play around with these suggestions and different handmade earring styles until you find the right fit. Your jewelry is about expressing yourself, so you should feel free to experiment and explore.
