It's all about balancing your facial shape into an oval face shape. Learn more about determining your face shape and flatter it here. If you have a squarish face then focus on elongating it and soften the edges with round chandelier beads.

For ultimate comfort, especially when you'll be wearing them for many hours, go for well-balanced chandelier with the weight evenly spread throughout the earrings. Disbalanced large earrings are one of the reasons why the pull so much and hurt your ears.

Go for colors that look best on your colorings. This is important if you want to look healthy and dazzling. Silver metal tend to look best on cool-toned women and gold metal on warm-skinned gals. However you can for example still wear silver chandelier earrings as long as they have bead or crystals in your best colors like warm topaz or forest green. Learn more about your best colors here.

Chandelier earrings suit women of all ages. But if you're over 40 opt for more modest looking styles with a maximum of 2 different colors. Like for example sleek silver chandelier earrings with beautiful cubic zirconia or diamond beads. Unless you have a very creative and eclectic spirit which shows through the way you dress, then by means, go for boho multi colored chandeliers!

If you want quality and durability for your money then opt for gold-filled, vermeil, real gold and sterling silver metal. The metal coating is heavily bonded and often purer than cheap and thin plated earrings. They cost more but last a long time!
