TRENDING: STATEMENT EARRINGS

For LA blogger and former Diane von Furstenberg stylist Elshane, the art of a statement earring is ‘to turn an outfit into something larger-than-life’. A scroll through her Instagram confirms this: every ebullient, print-filled post channels this sense of creativity, often with the help of a well-chosen piece of jewellery. So who better to share the key statement earring trends to look out for in AW18?

Mismatched Earrings

When I saw these Jacquemus earrings, I knew they were meant to be. They remind me of stringing plastic beaded necklaces in summer camp when I was a little girl— and with summer just days away, I thought they would be the perfect nod to that memory.

Tassel Earrings

These pom pom and tassel Yuliya Magdych earrings were a must, and I plan to pack these on my trip to Italy this summer. All you need is a white t-shirt and the earrings do the rest! I wore these on a carousel ride with my daughter - something about them made me feel like a kid again, and I think it’s really important to dress for the occasion everyday.

Art-inspired Earrings

I love the arts, so I’m particularly excited about the influx of artistic earrings surfacing right now - from works of art to tongue-in-cheek conversation starters. These JW Anderson earrings are the ultimate talking point— and besides, they make me laugh! I wore these on a date night at Soho House this week and I caught my husband starring at them all night.
