    Workwear Hall of Fame: Gayle Pumps

    I love a good huggie earring, but the teenier, the better. This teensy tiny gold diamond hoop looks adorable, comfortable, classy — love, love, love. It’s $693 (an oddly specific price) at ShopBop. Ariel Gordon Jewelry Pave Diamond Huggie Earrings Two slightly lower-priced options are here and here; here is a much lower-priced option. (L-5)
