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 jewelry box, huggies are the obvious choice for effortless elegance.
Gli orecchini huggie sono di moda?
Huggies offer a fresh and fun take on hoop earrings – and the trend is definitely here to stay. Designed to go around the ear effortlessly gives them their enduring appeal as a playful staple with endless styling possibilities. Whether studded with crystal pearls for a shot of joyful extravagance, or crafted from gleaming gold and silver tones, huggie style earrings are ideal for layering on radiance.
How to Wear Huggie Earrings
A style that can be easily and safely worn in different piercing locations, huggies are a must for your jewelry wardrobe. Keep it chic with a simple design that hugs your ear lobe, then pair with intricate studs and fine jewelry-like hoops.
For a bolder, more contemporary vibe choose chunkier huggies in your tragus or helix piercings. Or make them your style signature by placing a single huggie in your daith piercing – spiky or studded iterations plated in ruthenium are the perfect pick for this. And for a distinctive look that celebrates your individuality, combine huggie hoops with other favorite styles to create a full ear stack.
What Size Huggies Should You Choose
Huggies come in different sizes but generally range from 5-15 mm in diameter. The size you choose will depend on the type of look you wish to create and which piercing you want to wear the huggie in. Choose a statement style like the Millenia clip-on if you want it to be the focal point of your outfit, or plan to wear it in your helix piercing. However, if you’re adding to your lower or upper lobe stack and want a style that blends in seamlessly with your existing earrings, opt for a smaller huggie with a more discreet profile.
If you want to work out which size huggie will fit most comfortably on a particular piercing, you will need a ruler and mirror. Place the ruler on the piercing and measure to the bottom of your lobe. To measure huggie earrings correctly, check the width of the hoop’s inner diameter.

Huggies vs Hoops
Huggies are a type of hoop earring. They are smaller than classic hoops and sit much closer to the ear. Huggies are also more versatile than hoops and can be worn in various piercing locations for a non-traditional take on ear styling.
For a dramatic flourish, huggies and hoops can be stacked together in a mix of metals and embellishments. To create a sleek, singular statement, huggies are best - consider experimenting with Sublima’s domed shape - or reach for crystal-encrusted designs like our Matrix hoops to add a touch of timeless elegance.

How To Put On Huggie Earrings
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 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.
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’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.
