Vacation season is right around the corner. When I’m planning for a trip, I always try to pack light with outfits and accessories I can mix and match. It saves space for shopping and makes it easy to put together outfits without having to overthink them. Chunky earrings take a minimalistic, neutral-toned backless dress and elevate it for date night or cocktails at golden hour.

There’s nothing I love more than lounging around in a bikini and working on my tan. I like to keep it lowkey by the pool with a sleek back bun, which means it’s the perfect time to wear gold statement earrings. They instantly make it feel like I’ve put a little bit of effort into my pool side outfit and are the perfect match for a pair of oversized shades.

Nothing shows off a fresh tan better than a white dress.

I always think this combination gives you the feel of an IT girl. A simple day dress in a light color and statement gold earrings is the outfit is one I live in during the warmer months.
Oversized Gold Stud Earrings with Winter Staples
Back home, where it's not that warm, my gold stud earrings remain my go to jewelry staple. When I’m wearing a sweater and a coat, I sometimes think the rest of my jewelry gets a little hidden.
