Sir Mix a Lot
Hi ladies! This week our blog is all about studs, specifically the mismatched stud earring trend that we have been seeing all season. If you are a stud girl, then keep on reading to find out about our latest Jaimie Nicole studs and to learn a little bit about the history of this style of earring.
Pierced earrings first made their debut in the Middle East as early as 3,000 B.C. and were intended to provide strangers with a quick and easy clue as to the wearer's religious, political or tribal identity. Earrings were also an indicator of the individual's social status in the community and were worn as a matter of choice and pride by those who were in power and as a label of inferiority and shame by those who were enslaved. Originally crafted of metals that could be bent, flattened and twisted into unique designs and hoops, earrings became more elaborate in the second century A.D. when assorted gems were introduced.
Stud earrings are easy to wear, comfortable and a great way to add style to any outfit. This effortless accessory has been a staple in many fashionistas wardrobes for decades. A popular trend that has been on the rise this spring is the idea of mismatched stud earrings. Within our 2018 Spring/Summer collection we have two different pairs of studs which can be bought as a matching set or as a mismatched pair. This is a first for us at Jaimie Nicole! This is a fun and funky way to mix up your accessories. The studs are grouped into cool hues and warm hues. The cool hues consist of quartz, pink opal, and peridot. The warm hues consist of blue chalcedony, carnelian, and beer quartz. These colors are a great way to celebrate the emergence of spring in style!
If colors aren’t really your thing, we have some other classic designs that will be right up your alley. The first is our three cubic zirconia stud earring. These trendy stud earrings come in gold vermeil, rose gold filled and sterling silver. They are not only ideal, but they are playful too. They can be worn horizontally or vertically and look great in either position. These studs make great gifts too. They are under one hundred dollars and are guaranteed to delight anyone that receives them!
Our gold circle hoop studs are your go to studs for every day wear. Made of vermeil, this hoop/stud hybrid is a great way to breathe new life into any outfit. We also have this same style available in sterling silver and adorned with cubic zirconia. These classic circle silhouettes are timeless and will be sure to become a staple in your wardrobe. At under one hundred dollars, these playful studs are also great for gifting. Keep in mind they are also the perfect size for anyone who has a second piercing on their ears.

This non-profit organization helps bring clean and safe drinking water to people in need in developing countries.
