What Is a Huggie Earring?

Title:
As the name suggests, huggies are crafted to hug the ear. Small in size but big on impact, the hoop-like designs loop around the ear and will add a cool touch to any outfit. Huggie hoops are known for their versatility and are especially easy to style; they can be worn higher up the ear to complement an edgier aesthetic or lower on the lobe like more traditional earrings. Perfect for pairing with existing pieces in your jewellery box, huggies are the obvious choice for effortless elegance.
¿Están de moda los pendientes huggie?
Los huggies ofrecen una versión fresca y divertida de los pendientes de aro, y no cabe duda de que la tendencia ha llegado para quedarse. Su diseño para rodear la oreja de forma natural les otorga un atractivo perenne como básico divertido con infinitas posibilidades de estilo. Tanto si están adornados con crystal pearls para dar un toque de extravagancia alegre, como si se presentan en deslumbrantes tonos dorados y plateados, los pendientes estilo huggie son ideales para superponer y añadir luminosidad.

Cómo llevar los pendientes huggie

Los huggies, que pueden llevarse fácilmente y con seguridad en diferentes partes del cuerpo siempre que haya perforación, son imprescindibles en tu colección de accesorios. Luce un estilo chic con un diseño sencillo que abraza tu lóbulo y combínalo con pendientes de botón intrincados y aros que imitan la joyería fina. 

Si quieres mostrar un estilo más audaz y contemporáneo, elige huggies más gruesos para las perforaciones del trago y la hélice. Conviértelos en tu marca personal de estilo colocando un único huggie en tu perforación daith; las versiones con pinchos o tachuelas bañadas en rutenio son la elección perfecta. Y si quieres lograr un look distintivo que celebre tu individualidad, combina los aros huggie con otros modelos de éxito para crear una superposición en toda la oreja.

Qué tamaño de huggies deberías elegir

Los huggies están disponibles en diferentes tamaños, pero normalmente van de los 5 a los 15 mm de diámetro. El tamaño que elijas dependerá del tipo de look que desees crear y en qué perforación quieras llevar el huggie. Haz una declaración de estilo con el pendiente de clip Millenia si deseas que sea el elemento central de tu atuendo o tienes pensado llevarlo en tu perforación en la hélice. Sin embargo, si lo añades a tu combinación del lóbulo inferior o superior y deseas un estilo que se mezcle perfectamente con tus pendientes existentes, opta por un huggie más pequeño con un perfil más discreto.
 
Si quieres averiguar qué tamaño de huggie se ajustará más cómodamente a una perforación concreta, necesitarás una regla y un espejo. Coloca la regla en la perforación y mide hasta la parte inferior del lóbulo. Para medir correctamente los pendientes huggie, fíjate en el ancho del diámetro interior del aro.

Huggies frente a aros

Los huggies son un tipo de pendiente de aro. Son más pequeños que los aros clásicos y quedan más pegados a la oreja. Los huggies también son más versátiles que los aros y se pueden llevar en varios lugares con perforación para lucir una versión no tradicional del modelo para las orejas.

Si se quiere lucir un look espectacular, los huggies y los aros pueden combinarse en una mezcla de metales y adornos. Si quieres crear una declaración de estilo elegante y singular, los huggies son la mejor opción: puedes experimentar con la forma abovedada de Sublima, o bien elegir diseños con incrustaciones de cristales como nuestros aros Matrix para añadir un toque de elegancia atemporal.
Cómo ponerse unos pendientes huggie
There are different types of huggie earrings. Most are designed for pierced ears although some are made with a clip-on mechanism. Similar to small hoop earrings, huggies usually feature a latched or hinged back closure and shorter post. As huggies have a continuous circular design, they very rarely have screw or butterfly back closures, which are more often used to fasten studs or drop earrings.
 
If your huggie has a hinged back clasp, begin by pulling the hinge open. Thread the post carefully through your piercing before snapping the hinge closed. The huggie should sit securely in place but not pinch the skin or feel tight.
Style Huggies for Self-Expression

Embrace experimental styling and get creative with how you wear your huggies. Wear a stack on the earlobe to channel classic sophistication or lend looks a punk feel by placing huggies in your helix, tragus, or daith piercings. For a cool contrast, play with proportions and pair mini huggies with oversized silhouettes like our Constella or Idyllia drop earrings and Hyperbola hoops.

Shine with confidence in a pared back t-shirt and jeans combo teamed with a single Dextera huggie hoop. Or unleash the maximalist in you with asymmetric accessorising – juxtapose a row of monochrome huggies on one ear with a vibrant Gema ear cuff on the other.

Love a little luxe? The high shine metallics and pearl injections of Swarovski’s Matrix earrings work beautifully with our silver-tone Millenia clip-ons. Or why not accent an all-black ensemble with our striking Sublima huggies; wear with dual-colour Matrix hoops for the ultimate expression of joy.

Can You Sleep in Huggie Earrings?
Thanks to their small shape and size, and typically lightweight feel, you can wear huggies when sleeping. Like studs, they are considered one of the safest earrings to keep on at all times – whether you are out and about or relaxing at home. However, to avoid any potential discomfort, you may wish to remove your huggie earrings before sleeping, especially when piercings have not fully healed. To remove huggies, unfasten the clasp and gently pull the post out from your piercing. Store your huggies in a fabric-lined jewellery box or cloth pouch to prevent scratches.
Creative Ways to Wear Huggie Earrings
Huggies are all about expressing your creativity. With their versatile styling options, they’re perfect for crafting a look that’s individual to you. Huggie hoops in mixed sizes are a great choice for bold self-expression, while designs with colourful charms are uniquely sweet.
 
Break the mould and wear your huggies with more formal ensembles like a sharply tailored suit, or glow bright after dark in a kaleidoscope of colours. Try slimmer huggies for a hint of opulence or go bolder with chunkier shapes. However you choose to wear them, huggies are made to amplify your shine.
