The sighting: Gabby Barrett led an enthusiastic crowd in a singalong of her megahit, “I Hope,” during Nashville’s Big Bash, a New Year’s Eve party. The country singer was radiant under the lights and so was her jewelry.
The jewels: Barrett showed off some serious NYE bling with the Kendall Earrings by Nickho Rey in soulful garnet. They’re a dramatic style featuring four lines of garnets suspended from a horizontal garnet-encrusted bar topped by garnet triangles. The deep garnet red was the perfect complement to the artist’s iconic song about anger after heartbreak.
The earrings are rose gold vermeil and listed on Nickho Rey’s website for $378.
The trends: Celebrities love this kind of extra-wide earring that features a series of cascading drops from a horizontal line. It’s a fun and dramatic take on the classic chandelier and the extra width is still unusual enough that it feels daring.
Barrett herself recently wore gold earrings with a similar silhouette in promo photos for her 2021 CMAs performance, so we know she’s a fan of this trend.
What do we think? I have no nits to pick at all on this one. The look is suitably dramatic for a pop star on NYE with the added bonus of garnet being the perfect color both for a winter event AND for a song with a strong revenge vibe.
Judgement: 10/10 for singing a great song while wearing great earrings.
