15 "Smedium" Gold Hoops That Won’t Cost You A Fortune
Where to snag quality jewelry box staples for under $100
Here at NYLON, we think that everyone needs a pair of smedium gold hoops in their jewelry arsenal. Easily dressed up or dressed down, a simple gold hoop looks as good paired with jeans and a T-shirt as it does with a silk slip dress.
What is smedium, you ask? It's that sweet spot between small and medium, of course. And in a world where everything is either lobe-huggingly tiny or absurdly oversized, we're here to sing the praises of this versatile, perfectly sized jewelry box staple.
However, finding a quality golden hoop earring at a non-absurd price point isn't easy, so we did all of the research for you. Below is your guide to finding the perfectly sized and perfectly priced basic gold hoop (okay, fine, some come with a twist) that—bonus!—won't turn your earlobes green.
