Hoop earrings are one of the most versatile things you can have in your jewelry box. They can transform an outfit and add elegance and sophistication or a hint of funk and irreverence, depending on how you wear them. Hoops tend to be very flattering on just about any face shape, which is another reason they're ubiquitous.

Small hoops can be worn with suits or skirts for the office or client meetings, and with jeans or other more casual looks on the weekend.

Medium hoops, especially gold ones, are classic and work almost anywhere and with anything, from a silk shirt to a turtleneck to a T-shirt.

If you have multiple piercings in your ears, a couple of small hoops is edgy without going over the top.

Big hoops? Strictly for a night out. C'mon now, don't make us call the fashion police.
