What is your first memory of wearing hoop earrings?
My earliest memory of wearing hoop earrings goes back to when I was about four years old. I remember seeing pictures of myself wearing sterling silver forever hoops—tiny, delicate, and never needing to come out. From what I understand, I was a very active kid, so my mom probably chose small silver hoops because they were secure and practical.
Which celebrities inspired your love for hoops growing up?
It wasn’t until middle school that fashion and accessories really started to matter. Hoop earrings were a must-have for every preteen and teenager at the time. Some of the celebrities I admired who wore hoops included Mary J. Blige—her iconic What’s the 411? album cover featured a pair that every girl either had or wanted. Salt-N-Pepa rocked bold bamboo hoops, and while I never owned a pair myself, I always wanted some. And of course, Sade—there was no one smoother. Her sleek ponytail paired with the simplest yet most elegant hoop earrings was the definition of effortless beauty.
Why do you think hoops are such an iconic piece of jewelry?
Hoops have always been one of those jewelry pieces that go with absolutely anything. There’s something powerful about a woman wearing hoop earrings—it’s almost like putting on a cape. They have a way of making you feel bold, confident, and unstoppable. It’s an unexplainable kind of magic.
What are some hoop earring trends today that you think will stick around?
I love the trend of stacking different-sized hoops along the ear. For example, wearing a larger hoop in the first piercing, smaller ones in the second, and adding a hoop-style ear cuff for extra flair. I’m also seeing more charms added to large hoops, which adds a fun, personalized touch. And let’s talk about bamboo hoop earrings—they’re definitely making a comeback, and I’m all for it! Maybe now is the time for me to finally get that pair I’ve always wanted.
How does the symbolism and history of hoops resonate with women today?
Hoop earrings date back to ancient Egypt, where jewelry was seen as a symbol of good fortune and protection. While those meanings still hold true today, jewelry has also evolved to represent empowerment. In Black and Latino communities especially, hoops symbolize strength, culture, unity, and a deep sense of power. They’re more than just an accessory—they’re a statement.
