Question: What Earrings Should I Wear With an Updo?
I'm wearing my hair up for a party. What type of earrings should I wear with an updo?
Answer: If you are wearing your hair up, a pair of dangly earrings is always appropriate. If you are attending a formal affair, select earrings that add a little sparkle, such as diamonds, rhinestones and colorful gems. Hoop earrings are also a wonderful choice.
