Much like tennis bracelets and pendant necklaces, hoop earrings are a timeless essential in every modern jewelry collection — effortlessly versatile and always in style. Whether you gravitate towards chunky statement hoops or delicate, barely-there huggies, the best hoop earrings can transform any look while reflecting the essence of your personal style. With an array of sizes, shapes, materials, and price points, today’s top jewelry brands have made it easier than ever to find the perfect pair for every style and occasion. 

With origins tracing all the way back to 2500 BCE to trending appearances on the Fall 2025 runways, hoop earrings have remained a timeless symbol of style, power, and self-expression. Their presence spans not only fashion history but also pop culture — think Josephine Baker’s dramatic hoops in the 1920s, Cher’s glamorous ‘70s iterations, or Sade’s sleek signature pair. Today, celebrities like Rihanna, Hailey Bieber, Jennifer Lopez, and Selena Gomez showcase the enduring versatility of hoops, wearing them everywhere from red carpets to casual everyday outings. Whether you lean toward polished gold, cool silver, bold mixed metals, diamonds, or unique, statement-making designs, the styling possibilities are endless — which can also make shopping for hoop earrings a bit overwhelming. 

“When choosing hoop earrings, it’s all about personal preference and striking the right balance between style, comfort, budget, and longevity,” says Xenia Lally, Fashion Director at Mejuri. Today’s trending hoop earrings range from minimal chunky styles to playful designs featuring colorful enamel, charms, pearls, mixed metals, and sculptural elements. Whether you’re searching for the perfect hoops or refreshing your collection with new-season styles, the key is finding pieces that truly reflect your aesthetic. Are you drawn to silver or gold? Do you prefer bold statements or minimalist silhouettes? Classic staples or trend-forward twists? Whatever your style, the perfect pair of hoops should feel like an effortless extension of you.
