Stud earrings

What are stud earrings?

Stud earrings are one of the most classic and timeless types of earrings. A stud earring — also known as a stud — is a small piece of jewelry that rests directly on the earlobe with no visible hanging part. The earring is usually held in place with a post on the back, also called a butterfly clasp or simply a "back."

What this minimalist jewelry in the form of stud earrings is their subtle, understated shape. Instead of dangling or moving, they stay firmly in place. This makes them ideal for everyday wear, but also surprisingly stylish for festive moments. Think of a small sparkling stone, a geometric shape or a pearl — anything goes, as long as it is compact and refined. See also here for inspiration in the field ofngold stud earrings.

Why choose a stud earring?

There are several reasons why stud earrings are so popular:

• Comfort: they are light, do not prick the skin and are comfortable — even when worn for long periods. All our earrings (including our statement earrings for example) are light earrings incidentatly.
• Stylish and subtle: perfect for a minimalist look or as a finishing touch to a striking outfit.
• Versatile: suitable for any occasion, from work to wedding.
• Ideal to combine with: wear multiple studs next to each other or mix with other types of earrings.
• Timeless: their simplicity means they never go out of fashion.

At Le Rêve Amsterdam you will find a carefully composed collection of stud earrings that perfectly embody these qualities.

Earrings as pieces or as a set?

An important advantage of stud earrings is that you can wear them individually or as a pair.

Do you have multiple holes in your ears? Studs are ideal for creating a layered effect. For example, wear a striking pendant in the first hole, a small stud in the second and possibly an even more subtle earring in the third. The possibilities are endless.

The different styles of stud earrings

The power of the stud earring lies in its versatility. They may be small, but the style options are endless. Here are some of the most popular styles:

1. Minimalist studs

Perfect for those who love subtle elegance. Think of a small golden ball, a tight geometric figure or a stone in a soft color. Minimalist studs match every outfit, from jeans to evening dress.

2. Stud earrings with stone

One of the most beloved styles: a small Swarovski stone as a sparkling centerpiece. This earring stud adds just that little bit of sparkle without being too obtrusive. Ideal for everyday wear, but also perfect as an accent for a festive occasion.

How to Combine Stud Earrings: Tips for a Stylish Ear Stack

Ear stacking — or combining multiple earrings — has been the trend for years. Studs are the perfect base for this. Some tips:

• Start with a larger stud in the first hole and work your way up with smaller studs.
• Mix materials: combine gold with pearl, shine with matte, or add a small pendant for contrast.
• Stick to one colour palette for a harmonious look or opt for a striking colour stud as an eye-catcher.
• Combine with cuffs or minimalist earrings for extra dimension.

The ideal choice for any occasion

Whatever the occasion, a stud earring always fits. A few examples:

• Working day: choose an elegant stud with a transparent stone for a neat, professional look.
• Date night: go for a sparkling Swarovski stud or a striking geometric design.
