Dress Up Your Humble Hoodie With a Glam Pair of Earrings This Winter

Balenciaga’s spring 2021 collection music video release feels like ages ago now. But as I watched the video back in early October, bumping my head to the ’80s song, “Sunglasses at Night”, I dreamed of a future where I too can groove around Paris, meet up with friends, and head out into the night. And although dancing the night away in Paris isn’t our reality at the moment, we can in fact learn a thing or two from the clip, and dress up our humble hoodies with a fabulous diamante earring, just like the models did. 

With the holiday season underway, there’s no better time than the present to pair a cozy sweatshirt with a party-worthy earring, especially if said party is taking place over Zoom. The oversized-sweatshirt-and-statement-earring styling combo seen in a handful of the collection’s looks feels as relevant as ever. Not only is it an excellent waist-up combination, but it’s also a nod to the luxe, festive holiday dressing of years past. Since sweatshirts and sweatpants don’t seem to be going anywhere just yet, this pairing is a superb but small styling hack that will make wearing any ordinary sweatshirt all the more glam, for any day of the week.
