Coated in silver and gold or with pearl and jewel appliqués, hoop earrings are a classic accessory that is somehow always modern. It’s good to take style notes from celebrities such as Jennifer Lopez and Selena Gomez, who use hoop earrings to give their outfits a bold touch. Hoops have been part of fashion trends since Ancient Egypt and the Sumerians, and they’re also a powerful style symbol in Latina culture. Chic hoops connect these two Latinx stars in a unique way, from jazzing-up understated outfits for edgy street style to adding an extra bit of glam to an evening dress, JLo and Selena know how to work the hoop.

It’s not uncommon to see Jennifer Lopez in New York or LA wearing an infinite selection of models – such as these gold, ultra-smooth, maxi hoop earrings – that are great at reflecting the light of the camera’s flash.

Selena, on the other hand, prefers medium hoops. And when she uses hoops with a matte finish and sportswear, like she did at the presentation of her collaboration with the brand Puma, she creates a statement look.

Hoops are unquestionably versatile. And the Lose You To Love Me singer reaffirmed this on the red carpet. Wearing a black dress with a low neckline and a classic bun, she only needed embossed hoops to bring the look together.

Always present on runways, hoops also work as urban accessories, giving an immediate “cool” quality to any outfit. The Jenny From The Block singer illustrated this perfectly by combining hers with a trending denim-on-demin look.

The symmetry and the materials that hoop earrings are made from are also important. For a day event, Selena opted for medium-sized, glass and silver hoops.

Hoops are one of the few accessories that have transcended fashion trends. And these earrings are ideal for adding a funky edge to a pastel print dress, like the A Rainy Day in New York actress did.
