How to Choose the Right Hairpieces and Earrings for Hanfu?
I’m planning to wear hanfu for a photoshoot, but every time I try on the accessories, I feel like something’s off. I see other people wearing hanfu with perfect accessories, but I can never get the hairpieces and earrings right. Any tips on how to choose them so they look just right with the outfit?

Choosing the right hairpieces and earrings for your hanfu is all about complementing the style of your outfit while keeping it elegant. For hairpieces, think about the style of your hanfu first. If you’re wearing a simple, everyday hanfu, you’ll want a more understated hairpin. Something delicate and subtle like a jade flower pin or pearl hairpin can add a touch of elegance without overpowering your look. But if you’re wearing a more elaborate style for a special occasion, go ahead and choose something more extravagant—phoenix-shaped hairpins, gorgeous combs, or hairpieces with crystals and gold accents can really enhance the beauty of your hanfu.
As for earrings, start with something simple but elegant. Jade or pearl stud earrings are always a safe and timeless choice that can go with almost any style. If you’re going for a more formal or ornate look, gold earrings with intricate designs or even dangly earrings with jade or gemstones might work better. Just make sure your earrings don’t overshadow your hairpieces or the hanfu itself—balance is key.
Remember, accessories should always complement the outfit rather than dominate it. So, pick pieces that enhance your look while staying true to the style you’re going for.
