Versatility isn’t restricted to some accessories and apparel, it’s all in the way you style it into new looks. Recently, ribbed hoop earrings have been making their way into a variety of outfits, and platforms have been offering different interpretations to suit different tastes. If this is a closet addition you would like to invest in, Mumbai-based fashion stylist Richa Mehta draws out three opposing looks that these hoops can elevate. “Simple, trendy and effective, ribbed hoop earrings are a versatile staple in minimalist fashion,” says Mehta. She explains that these earrings are a favourite go-to accessory that not only complement outfits but also hold them cohesively. They suit all styles and occasions from the red carpet, and celebrity and fashion blogger appearances to a daily staple in your wardrobe for the office, dinner, or a grocery run. “Celebrities like Alia Bhatt, Kriti Sanon, Prajakta Koli, and Bella Hadid have been seen sporting this accessory on more than one occasion whether it is a casual outing or a glammed-up event. It is currently one of the chicest accessories,” Mehta highlights.

>> Complete the look: Wear sneakers or slide-ins with a colour-coordinated oversized bag and sunglasses.
Glammed-up and elegant

>> Pair it with: A statement clutch and heels. For your make-up, add bold kohl eyes and a strong red lip. You can go as dramatic as possible and have fun with your style.

Mehta suggests that this style can be bought from almost any platform, in all sizes and designs. She adds that the earrings go by different names; ask for twisted hoops or croissant hoops and pick a design that resonates with your personal style.
