What is the difference between dangle earrings and drop earrings?

While both earrings hang below the earlobe, there are a few differences between dangle and drop earrings. Drop earrings are usually a bit shorter than dangle earrings and don’t have as much movement. They often feature just one gemstone or bead hanging from the ear. Dangle earrings are longer and made with movement in mind. The backing on dangle earrings is almost always a hook style making them easy to slip on and allowing them to sway and move.

What styles of dangle and drop earrings are popular?

Shops on Etsy make a wide variety of dangle and drop earrings for women and men to suit every occasion and personal style. Accessorize casual outfits with charm-style drop earrings in playful shapes or dangle cross earrings. A pair of delicate teardrop earrings in gold or silver adds professional polish to an office look. For formal events, long dangle earrings that graze the neck or collarbone add dramatic flair to evening style—think chandelier earrings with multiple gemmed tiers or sparkly chain threader earrings for an edgy look. Work with a seller on Etsy to create personalized dangle earrings featuring your name for one-of-a-kind style.

What do you wear with dangle and drop earrings?

Because of their versatility, dangle and drop earrings are among the most popular earring choices to go with any outfit. Pair colorful beaded dangle earrings with a boho-chic ensemble for an easy, casual look. Or adorn your ears with fun tassel or animal print earrings to add whimsy to a simple white tee and a pair of jeans. A pair of mixed-metal dangle earrings will add visual interest to a formal dress or suit. Add a touch of old Hollywood glam with Art Deco dangle earrings . Wear diamond and pearl bridal drop earrings with your wedding look to dazzle on your big day.

"These earrings are just delightful! I've bought four pairs and I wear them all the time. They're very well made, very nicely finished, slightly different in length which makes them even better because they aren't so matchy-matchy. I love them. Wrens, chickadees, chipmunks, wren/birdhouse. So far. Thank you!"
