Secondly, i present before you some tips to buy jewelry (in this section i purely specified the earring) that will compliment your face. These are:
Square Face
Features: Strong and broad forehead with angular jaw and a square hair line.
Celebrities: Katie Holmes, Demi Moore, Gyneth Paltrow, Geena Davis, Salma Hayek
Best Suit: Any earrings that do not emphasise on the jawline could be worn , like studs , hook earrings or simple long chains.
Avoid: Large, angular styles as these can make your face appear wider.
Oval Face
Features: Forehead is wider than the chin, with a gently rounded hair line. Length is approximately equal to one and a half times width.
Celebrities: Kate Hudson, Jessica Alba
Best Suit: Soft shapes such as pearls, teardrops, ovals and studs work the best. Oval faces are very versatile and can wear pretty much anything. Just experiment with all styles to see which ones you prefer.
Round Face
Features: Circular shape which is as is as wide as it is long. Characterised by a round chin.
Celebrities: Kate Winslet, Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore
Best Suit: Long, lean and angular curvy lines to elongate the round face. Drop earrings in oblongs, ovals and dangles work best. Bold angular stud earrings can also look great.
Avoid: Large, chunky earrings. And steer clear of hoops and small studs.
Heart Shaped Face
Features: Narrow at jawline, wide at cheekbones and/or forehead. Similar to the oval face shape, but is narrower below the cheekbones to give a more pointed chin.
Celebrities: Reese Witherspoon, Scarlett Johansson, Sohie Dahl
Best Suit: Earrings that are wider at the bottom than at the top. Go for earrings with soft curves such as tear drops or ovals. Pyramid style earrings can also work well as they are wider at the bottom.
Avoid: Heart shaped earrings and those that come to a point at the bottom.
Oblong Face
Features: Similar to the square face, but an oblong face is longer than it is wide
Celebrities: Angelina Jolie, Hilary Swank, Sarah Jessica Parker
Best Suit: Statement chandelier styles with lots of volume. Simple studs also work well as they draw the eyes horizontally.
Avoid: Long and angular earrings that mirror your face shape.
Diamond Face
Features: Strong and broad forehead with angular jaw and a square hair line. Widest at the cheeks and narrow at the chin and the forehead.
Celebrities: Katherine Hepburn, Linda Evangelista, Sophia Loren
Best Suit: Earrings with more width than length, a combination of straight lines and curves are great. Studs also look good on diamond shape faces as do small drops.
Avoid: Diamond shape earrings and angular squares.
