From experience, I’ve learnt that you’re either an earring person or you’re not.
For some (myself included), no outfit is complete without the addition of a pair of earrings, and on the rare occasion I’ve somehow found myself stepping out of the door without them, a sense of horror washes over me. I feel akin to being naked without a hoop, stud or huggie hanging from my lobes. Is my attachment to an item of jewellery a little on the dramatic side? Possibly. But, seeing as you’ve found yourself here, I’m going to assume you know what I’m talking about and that we’re kindred spirits when it comes to the necessity of a great pair of earrings.
It’s for this reason that I believe it’s smart to have an arsenal of styles at your disposal. After all, if you never want to be caught sans earrings, you need a pair that can work with every type of outfit. Thankfully, this season, earrings have gone into overdrive, and there are a whole host of earring trends that make the perfect pairing for whatever you have planned. From sleek, sculptural creations that are ideal for adding a little edge to even the most classic everyday looks to elegant old-money-inspired styles sure to add a touch of polish, this season’s best earrings are better than ever.
Heading away on holiday? There’s an earring trend for that; just look to this season’s elevated take on the mermaidcore trend or bold, bright colour-pop styles to upgrade all your beachside looks. And that’s just some of what’s in store. 
The Best Earring Trends of 2025:
1. Sculptural Shapes
Style Notes: Sculptural earrings come in many different forms, from fluid molten creations to more graphic shapes. I’d argue that this makes the trend incredibly wearable, as you can tailor the style to suit your tastes, going as big or small as you want whilst still tapping into the trend.
