Best Earrings for a Diamond Face Shape

Skip earrings that add width at the cheekbones. Choose ones that widen at the bottom.

This guide is for the diamond face shape: cheekbones clearly the widest point, with both forehead and jaw at 85% or less of the cheekbone width.

Try

  • Teardrop and pear-shaped earrings that add width at the jaw
  • Long, slim drops that lengthen and narrow the outline
  • Small studs and huggies that keep attention on the cheekbones
  • Delicate, vertical styles

Skip or adjust

  • Big, wide earrings at cheekbone level
  • Chunky hoops that widen the face at the widest point
  • Cluster earrings that add more width at the top
