Golden Moments: Your Summer Guide to Gifting and Styling Gold Earrings

Whether you're heading off on a sun-drenched city break or just looking to freshen up your jewellery box, gold earrings are the season’s ultimate must-have. Timeless yet playful, bold yet versatile — they’re the perfect finishing touch to your summer wardrobe and an effortless gift for someone special (yourself included, of course).

At Licensed To Charm, we’ve handcrafted a golden lineup that celebrates iconic characters and individuality — from whimsical Miffy drops to statement Frida Kahlo hoops and adorable Moomin studs.

So, whether you're shopping for a friend, a festival or just because… here’s our sparkling guide to choosing the perfect gold earrings this summer.

Why Gold Earrings Shine in Summer

There’s something magical about the way gold catches the light — especially when the sun’s out. Our 18ct Gold Vermeil earrings bring warmth and radiance to any outfit, pairing beautifully with linen dresses, breezy beachwear or summer knits.

Gold also complements every skin tone, making it an ideal gift choice when you’re unsure of what someone might like. And because all our pieces are handmade in the UK, you’re giving something meaningful, sustainable and full of story.

Gold Earrings Make Perfect Gifts (And Here’s Why)

Looking for a gift that’s thoughtful but not over the top? Earrings strike that perfect balance — personal but not too presumptive, stylish without being size-dependent.

• Miffy Gold Earrings – Sweet, subtle and full of nostalgia. The tiny Miffy heads or mini hoops add charm to any everyday look. A perfect pick for birthdays or “just because.”

• Frida Kahlo Gold Earrings – Bold, beautiful and full of meaning. Choose from drop earrings with intricate symbolism or mini motifs like the sugar skull. Ideal for fans of Frida’s art and spirit.

• Moomin Gold Earrings – From Little My’s feisty charm to Snorkmaiden’s sparkle, these make the loveliest gift for fans of Scandi-cool storytelling.

From Studs to Statement: Gold Earring Styles We Love

Here’s a quick style guide to help you (or your giftee) find their perfect match:

• Stud Earrings – Great for daily wear, layering, or minimalists. Our Moomin and Miffy designs add a little storytelling to the mix.

• Hoop Earrings – Effortlessly chic. Choose small everyday hoops for subtle shine, or go bold with our Frida hoops that turn heads and spark conversations.

• Drop Earrings – Made for movement. These are ideal for evenings out, special occasions or adding a bit of drama to a simple outfit.

Handcrafted with Heart (and Gold Vermeil)

All of our gold earrings are handcrafted in the UK using high-quality 18ct gold vermeil over solid sterling silver — that means thicker plating, longer-lasting shine, and pieces that feel truly special. These aren’t throwaway trends — they’re timeless treasures.
