2. Danglers To Dazzle
Danglers, as the name suggests, have little elements hanging below a centre piece. These earrings look gorgeous and they even show through an open hairdo. They go well with suits and anarkalis and you don’t even need to add a necklace if you don’t want to, because these are grand enough! POPxo Recommends: Voylla Golden Drop Danglers (Rs 1,336)
3. Statement Chandelier Earrings
This style of earrings become broader towards the end and start from one small stud, similar to the shape of a chandelier. They’re perfect for adding oodles of glamour to your ensemble. We recommend you keep these for the events where you need to make a statement or want to dress up a simple outfit. POPxo Recommends: Inaya Blue Alloy Chandelier (Rs 399)
4. Chand Balis To Shine
Deepika Padukone in Ram-Leela definitely inspired us all to add these to our collection. Multiple styles are available nowadays, but the one thing that remains constant is the semi circular edges and the crescent. This pair with white stones is a tad atypical and that’s why we love it! POPxo Recommends: Gold With Pearl Chand Bali Earrings (Rs 950)

Hoop balis are simple, elegant and a classic. They look amazing and are great for when you’re unsure of what to pair your outfit with.

6. Studs – Simple & Sophisticated
If you’re a girl who likes to keep things, then a pretty pair of studs is going to be your best friend! From a single pearl design to a simple diamond or a small cluster of stones, you can wear them for any occasion.These elegant floral studs will help you look stylish without being OTT. POPxo Recommends: Golden Floral Studs (Rs 610)
7. Kaan Chains For A Royal Touch
These are for the girl who likes to keep things conventional. These earrings come with long chains that get hooked or pinned on to your hair. They look great with updos as well as loose hairstyles. Wear these for shaadi functions and you’re sure to fetch a lot of compliments. POPxo Recommends: Kundan Drop Earrings With Kaan Chain (Rs 2,449)
8. Drop (Dead Gorgeous) Earrings
We think drop earrings look super elegant. They can be long or short, either way, they look beautiful. These ones are quite offbeat. The rectangular disc with blue stones neatly aligned and the large pearl drop look delightful. Pair them with anything from sarees to anarkalis. POPxo Recommends: Blue Rectangle Pearl Drops (Rs 1,208)
9. Needle Thread Earrings
These ones work like a needle and thread. You use the needle to insert these earrings into the earring hole and pull it on the other side as much as you want. The rest of the earrings work as a metal thread. These look simple but fancy and there’s no hassle of an earring fastener either. You can wear these with western outfits as well! POPxo Recommends: Jade Thread & Needle Earrings (Rs 775)
10. Look-At-Me Ear Cuffs
Ear cuffs have been quite a craze in recent times and for good reason. You can make them work for you with western as well as ethnic ensembles. This style is for the girl who likes experimenting when it comes to fashion. These ones with a cluster of pearls and stones are WOW! POPxo Recommends: White Kundan Pearl Ear Cuff (Rs 799)
11. Kashmiri Dejhoor Earrings
Traditional Kashmiri earrings that include one pair of danglers that rest on the ear lobe and an extra chain with a drop going behind the ears for a gorgeous style statement. These one with red and green stones are a great find. Wear them with your desi outfits and let your ears do the talking. POPxo Recommends: Green Drop Pearl String Dejhoor Earrings (Rs 492)
12. Pretty Passa Style Earrings
We’ve all seen beautiful jhumars or passas that many brides wear on one side of their heads. These ones are a take on that. The earrings have strings that form a fan like structure and look even more gorgeous when they are matched with a heavy necklace. We like the white and blue combination in this pair.
