Find your perfect pair – stylish, flattering, and uniquely handmade.

At Little Rose Co. Boutique, we believe the right pair of earrings can elevate your outfit and bring out your natural features. But did you know certain earring shapes can complement different face shapes better than others?

Whether you're shopping for your next go-to pair or buying a gift, this guide will help you choose earrings that suit your face shape – while adding that handmade charm you love. 💕

How to Determine Your Face Shape

First things first—what's your face shape? Stand in front of a mirror, pull your hair back, and trace the outline of your face. Here's a quick guide:

Round: Full cheeks, equal width and height
Oval: Balanced proportions, slightly narrower chin
Square: Strong jawline and broad forehead
Heart: Wider forehead, narrow chin
Long/Rectangular: Longer than it is wide, often with high cheekbones

What are the Best Earrings for Each Face Shape?

Round Face

Goal: Add length and angles.

Best styles:
Long dangles or vertical drops
Geometric or angular shapes
Slim, statement pieces that elongate

👉 Try our Blue and Gold Rounded Triangle Shimmer Dangles – these striking dangles bring balance and definition to rounder features. Light-catching shimmer and an angular finish make them perfect for elongating the face.

💡 Tips for Choosing Earrings You’ll Love

Go handmade: Not only are our pieces lovingly crafted in small batches, they’re also lightweight and comfy for all-day wear.

Consider your hair: Long hair? Opt for contrast in colour or shine. Short hair or updo? Let those statement earrings steal the show.

Be yourself: These are only guidelines! The best pair is the one that makes you feel confident and stylish.
