RANGING from subtle gold or silver hoops placed around your helix, to elaborate snakes or peacocks curled to the shape of your ear, and those that stick out like an elf's ears — the options are diverse when it comes to ear cuffs.

Spotted on fashion-forward people of all ages, particularly Gen Z and millennials, these trendy jewellery pieces make a statement, according to image consultant, Bia Sandhu. "It's been in vogue for about a year now with women who want to make a style statement. People are on the lookout for them because it looks funky, giving you that unique sense of style. Depending on the kind you wear, it's not uncomfortable either," she says.
