STATEMENT EARRINGS ARE back with a vengeance after years of delicate, multi-part ear curations. That’s not to say that constellations of tiny earrings are out the window — they’re staying as a staple — but more and more jewelry lovers are choosing to wear one big pair of earrings for their special occasions. Even solo studs are becoming more interesting! Because when you’re wearing just one earring on an ear, it needs to be a great one.
Jewelry by Lisa Nik includes asymmetric peridot drop earrings with diamonds, $7,140; 18K white gold diamond line necklace, $19,950; 18K yellow gold diamond wave band, $4,620; 18K rose gold green quartz ring with diamonds, $2,940; and 18K white gold oval shaped tanzanite ring with diamonds, $12,600.
