It’s no secret that gold looks great with a tan (regardless of whether it’s real). And next to necks and shoulders left bare by summer’s spare tops, elegant hoops look more elegant than overtly glitzy accessories – especially in smaller sizes with understated design details.
These Gold Hoop Earrings by Herve van der Straeten ($180) aren’t quite circular, making them the ideal addition to a slightly-undone beachy hairdo.
Gold Hoop Earrings by O by Oscar de la Renta ($60) have a rich, antique look, thanks to the etched detail.
These Juicy Couture earrings ($58) have tiny buckles at the front.
These Hammered Metal Hoops ($7.50) from Old Navy are glamorous, simple, and ridiculously affordable.
We’ve been loving Kipepeo’s Sakura Earrings ($129) for a while – the design inside is a clever way to make the classic gold hoop unique.
