I vividly remember the ear cuff obsession of 2013—JCK had quite a few articles that year spotlighting the style—and then, much like now, the trend was more toward larger, statement-making pieces than delicate ones.
It seems inevitable that ear cuffs would make a comeback. With so many variations on the market, there are endless styling possibilities with ear cuffs, and they require no commitment to piercing by the wearer.
The ear cuff is one of those easy breezy pieces to throw on and go, but it looks anything but simple when it’s an intricately detailed and exquisite design, such as the jewels pictured here. Scroll down for some of the new ear cuffs to stock as summer approaches.
