Best Earrings for a Heart Face Shape

Earrings that widen toward the bottom balance the narrower jaw.

This guide is for the heart face shape: forehead at least 95% of the cheekbone width, with a jaw at 80% or less of the cheekbone width.

Try

  • Teardrop, triangular and chandelier earrings
  • Drop earrings that get wider toward the bottom
  • Round hoops that sit at the jaw line
  • Statement studs in a soft, bottom-heavy shape

Skip or adjust

  • Short, wide studs that add width near the forehead
  • Long, thin dangles that narrow the lower face further
  • Very small earrings that add no balance to the jaw
