Gotta grab these ear studs, ladies!

Girls, you might want to pack away those oversized hoops and the funky earcuffs you got, because this summer is all about statement studs. Be it plain, jewelled, a luxe cube shape or an animal design statement studs are your way to being the style icon on the block. For maximum impact, wear them with your hair tied up. Here are some of our favourites:

Can’t ever go wrong with diamond studs, now can we? Not in your budget? Don’t fret, get yourself diamond imitations. They will cost you just a couple of hundreds, if not less, and will serve the purpose.

Black and gold studs are timeless. They always look great. If within your budget, grab one of these from Chanel, they are sexy, chic and have the perfect antique touch to them.

Be it plain gold roses or plain gold balls, wear these and instantly lift your look.

There is nothing classier than pearls; they are the epitome of grace. Wear pearl studs of whatever size and be as elegant as ever.

Match your ear candy with your outfit. Wear big coloured square studs to complete your look. Neon colours look great this season.

This may seem a little quirky and not everyone will be willing to wear these, but animal shaped studs sure look adorable.

These are similar to coloured square shaped studs, but the pyramid shape gives them a certain edge. Be it gold or in bright colours, grab a couple of pairs.
