Almost everyone's earring journey begins with a pair of simple sleepers. Whether at the age of 3 months old, 7 years old or 22 years old, you most likely started with a pair. You couldn't get a more classic pair of earrings- I'd argue that a pair of gold hoops reigns supreme, even over classic diamond studs. (And yes, I'm prepared to fight that hill!)
Whether your personal preference are little, medium or big hoops, they will never go out of style or value, the economy can vouch of that one. The delicate faint shimmer, has a high range of versatility that even when you're not in the mood to dress all up, you'll always be looking quite priceless with a pair of gold hoops. They frame the face and accentuate facial features in a unique way that not many other earrings can enhance. We rely on them when we're looking to feel a little more polished, something to be said rather, about the innate power of accessories. Even Paul Mescal and Jacob Elordi rock one, and let us say those little hoops deserve an Oscar nomination of their own for what they're doing to the community.
Ready to invest in a pair that will become a cherished staple? Consider plated, 14k, 18k, or 24k hoops are the way to go. Not only will they shine a little more truer, they'll last a lifetime. But also develop a beautiful patina over time. With a little care, like polishing with a soft cloth, they can even become heirlooms.
