For the special woman in your life, there’s no better way to express your love than with a pair of diamond earrings. Timeless and elegant, diamond earrings are the perfect gift to make her feel truly appreciated. However, with so many different styles, designs, and options available, finding the ideal pair can feel overwhelming.
In this guide, I’ll talk you through everything you need to know about choosing diamond earrings as a gift. With some practical tips and helpful advice, I’ll help you find a pair that’s as beautiful as your loved one and that perfectly matches her style.
Giving the Gift of Diamond Earrings
When it comes to gifting jewellery, earrings are one of my favourite choices because of their versatility and ease. Unlike rings or watches, there’s no need to stress about finding the perfect fit—earrings generally come in a ‘one-size-fits-all’ design, making them a great option when you don’t have precise measurements.
Diamond earrings are especially versatile, perfect for both everyday wear and special occasions. They add an element of sophistication to any look, effortlessly complementing any outfit. With so many styles and shapes to choose from, I find it easy to find a pair that perfectly matches my own aesthetic.
Styles of Diamond Earrings
At Banks Lyon, we offer a range of diamond earring styles, including studs, hoops, and dangle earrings. The style you choose should be reflective of your recipient’s personal taste. For example, many women opt for a dainty stud for everyday wear, as they offer a comfortable and understated sense of luxury. Alternatively, dangle diamond earrings are exceptionally suited to special occasions and work well as a statement piece of jewellery.
Diamond Stud Earrings
Diamond Studs are my go-to recommendation for a wearable and comfortable pair of earrings. They’re incredibly versatile, fitting easily into any ear piercing, and their sleek design means they’re less likely to get caught in long hair—a practical yet stylish choice. While studs are smaller than many other types of diamond earrings, they come in a variety of designs and shapes, giving you plenty of options to ensure your recipient is wowed by her gift.
For an everyday pair, these 18ct White Gold 0.56ct Multi-Diamond Oval Cluster Earrings are a standout choice. They can easily be integrated into any outfit so that the woman in your life gets as much use out of them as possible. Alternatively, these 18ct White Gold 0.31ct Cushion Cut Aquamarine & Diamond Halo Stud Earrings feature an outstanding cushion-cut aquamarine stone surrounded by brilliant diamonds, creating a pair that your loved one will be sure to cherish.
Diamond Hoop Earrings
Diamond Hoop Earrings can also offer a blend of sophistication and wearability, making them a versatile choice for both everyday wear and formal occasions. Many women stick to wearing hoop earrings only, so if your recipient falls under this category, a fresh pair of diamond hoop earrings will be sure to impress her.
For a simple yet elegant pair that can accompany any outfit, I love these 18ct Yellow Gold 0.30ct Brilliant Cut Diamond Hoop Earrings. If you’re looking for a pair that has a more unique, textured design, then these 18ct White Gold 1.07ct Brilliant & Baguette Cut Diamond Hoop Earrings are a luxurious addition to any outfit.
Diamond Drop Earrings
If you’re looking to gift a pair of earrings perfect for formal or special occasions, drop earrings are my top recommendation. They’re especially well-suited to outfits where necklaces aren’t an option, like high-neck or off-the-shoulder dresses. Drop earrings add a touch of drama and elegance to any look, making them a standout choice for weddings, celebrations, or parties. Personally, I adore drop earrings because of the incredible variety of styles available—there’s truly something for everyone.
For instance, these subtle yet luxurious pair of 18ct White Gold Akoya Pearl & Diamond Drop Earrings would make the perfect pair for a bride on her wedding day. If your loved one appreciates following the latest jewellery trends and desires a pair that will capture the attention of an entire room, then these 18ct White Gold 0.90ct Diamond Linear Bar Drop Earrings are a highlight of mine.
