If last weekend’s Golden Globes red carpet was any indication, you’ll want to start stocking your jewelry box with chic and striking drop earrings, like the sparklers worn by Salma Hayek, Jenna Fischer, Kate Beckinsale, and Amy Adams. Dramatic earrings lend glamour to any outfit-try them to dress up a sweater and jeans or add the finishing touch to a cocktail dress—and stand perfectly fine alone (no necklace needed) for a no-fuss addition to your daily routine.
For an eco-friendly take on the trend, look for designs made with recycled metals and natural gems, or for pieces that are handmade and sold under fair trade guidelines. It’s also easy to create your own chandelier earrings with a few simple supples; check this DIY earrings tutorial to get started—but if you’re not very crafty, we’ve rounded up a few options to get you started:
