What Are Huggie Earrings & How to Wear Them

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.

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 accessorizing – 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-color Matrix hoops for the ultimate expression of joy.

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’re 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 haven’t fully healed. To remove huggies, unfasten the clasp and gently pull the post out from your piercing. Store your huggies in a fabric-lined jewelry box or cloth pouch to prevent scratches.
