Coco Chanel and the Art of EarringsNovember 2, 2015-Education
“Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.”
An iconic woman in so many ways, Coco Chanel’s words and influence continue to
shape every aspect of style and fashion for women worldwide, especially when it comes
to jewelry and accessories. Classic Chanel pieces are always in fashion. One of the
revolutionary designer’s most famous quotes is all about accessories. Sometimes less
is more, sometimes more is a bit much, but one thing is for sure… earrings are rarely
left behind.
“Costume jewelry is not made to give women an aura of wealth, but to make them beautiful.”
Coco Chanel believed that if women could afford to choose from a selection of beautiful
jewelry, not all precious stones, they would have the freedom to accessorize every outfit
they have. She herself was rarely seen without her signature oversized earrings and
ropes of pearls. A pioneer of costume jewelry, she created fabulous yet affordable
baubles made of chains, beads, and glass to complement her casual daytime collection
dating back to the 1930s. The tradition of Chanel earrings endures to this day, offering
elegant configurations of cultured pearls, plated metals and rhinestones.
“It is the unseen, unforgettable, ultimate accessory of fashion that heralds your arrival and prolongs your departure.”
Earrings often set the tone of other accessories, chosen based on a woman’s neckline,
hairstyle and mood on any given day. We rarely leave home without them, however
casual the look. As essential to a woman’s signature look as shoes and lipstick, the
“Double C” Chanel earrings are iconic and timeless.
Here are a few favorites from our extensive selection of Chanel earrings to finish your
holiday party look.
These classic Double C earrings are vintage Chanel, made in France. Black clip on
earrings detailed in gold are the perfect complement to another Coco creation…the
Little Black Dress.

These gorgeous hoops are oversized at 3” and flawlessly pair with an eye catching
cocktail ring. Regally engraved with iconic imagery, these recognizably Chanel earrings
are at once bold and elegant.
