Now that belly chains, anklets and vajazzling trends have come and (thankfully) gone, there’s a lack of new real estate of the body to embellish. What better time to rethink the humble earring? Ear climbers introduced the idea that jewelry could not just be attached to the ears but could sparkle in, over and around them, and now ear jackets present a new dimension in earrings, adding depth by adorning both the front and back of the lobe with pretty possibilities.
