Statement Earrings
They literally make any outfit. Courtesy of Zara

Street style is basically a competitive sport. Everyone plans their outfits weeks if not months in advance trying to sway photographers to start clicking away in their presence. That goes for New York, London, Milan and Paris as well as Copenhagen, Tokyo, Stockholm and more. One of the easiest ways to get noticed? Polishing off your look with a pair of statement earrings.

It's a classic trick designed to amp up any ensemble. There are plenty of designer creations to choose from. Like Alaïa's striking hoops. Not to mention the fashion house's thin spirals. If you're looking for color, see Rabanne's tie-dye set. Saint Laurent always pays proper homage to the 80s, including in the form of flashy clip-ons. Jil Sander is also getting in on the "vintage" action with a resin pair. Then there's Simone Rocha's stud earrings that double as danglers thanks to red ribbons that sweep shoulders.

Afraid to break into your emergency designer stash? No problem. There are lots of affordable yet equally ensemble-enhancing options. Mango and Zara lead the charge. The former offers numerous statement makers, from pseudo coins to mixed beads. The latter is also well stocked with bright flowers, fanned silhouettes and even a set of snakes, which is pretty apropos since it's the Year of the Snake. COS' cascading quartz earrings come in a beautiful jade hue. While By Anthropologie's pearl pair are elegant enough for weddings or those long walks to get to the runway venue.
