Come scegliere gli orecchini in base alla forma del viso
How to choose the perfect earrings for your face shape!

DIAMOND FACE

A diamond face is characterized by very pronounced and wide cheekbones, in proportion to the chin and forehead.
The rhomboidal shape of this face type reminds us of the diamond, and precisely because its “preciousness”, its features should be emphasized and not hidden.
In this regard, the most appropriate earrings are those with soft or rounded shapes, able to balance the angularity of the cheekbones.

Do not exclude also chandelier earrings, pendants and wider in the final part.

ROUND FACE 

The round face is one of the easiest shapes. It does not present any angularity, but is characterized by the sweetness of its features.

The preferred earrings in this case are long and pendant ones: in this way, they create a game of proportions, optically lengthen the face and balance the roundness.

HEART FACE

If not the sweetest, a heart-shaped face is certainly the rarest of face types!
It is recognizable by narrow chin, so the earrings that best enhance it are those round and pendants – the latter even better if teardrop – to go to fill the lower part of the face.

OVAL FACE 

The woman with an oval face is lucky enough to be able to wear any type of earring, whether it be a lobe, hoop, long or chandelier.It is in fact the most balanced face shape of all: feel free to experiment with different styles and shapes!

Particularly indicated the drop earrings, which are able to enhance the symmetry of the oval face.

OBLONG FACE 

As the name suggests, the oblong face is developed in length rather than width.
The preferred earrings are those that contrast the verticality of the face, such as lobe, round and large earrings.

They are better if bright, so as to shift the attention to the upper part of the face.

 SQUARE FACE

The square face is highlighted by very sharp and square contours.
The most suitable earrings are all those that contrast with and soften the angularity of the face.
We recommend round, hoop and lobe earrings, and more generally to all earrings with soft lines, in order to balance the geometry of the face.
