- Chandbalis
Bollywood made them popular and the trend continues to rule the jewelry world. With a host of inlay work to choose from like stone, meenakari, pearls and chandbalis are statement earrings which do not require a neckpiece to be added to it. Since they are generally heavy, you can add a Kaan chain or a kanauti to it to support their weight and to add some glitz. Pair gorgeous Kundan chandbalis with your lehenga to get all eyes fixed on you when you walk in.
- Chandeliers
Zirconia, American diamond, and pearls are some of the popular choices when it comes to chandeliers. They lend a defining structure to the face and give an illusion of height. Make sure you have a hairdo to match these so have your hair tied up to draw attention to them. Cleopatra was the one who made this design popular and now her legacy is being carried on by women across the globe. Chandeliers add a touch of drama to your outfit without making it seem too flashy. Geometric shapes are the current favorite in this earring style.
