Hoops, once reserved for statement-making moments, have somewhat unexpectedly become a classic everyday jewelry style. Gone are the days of a subtle stud for casual outings; worn on repeat by stylish celebrities like Blake Lively, J.Lo, and Reese Witherspoon, gold hoops are the outfit-making accessory you can wear with basically anything, from jeans and a T-shirt to formal dresses. While chunkier weights and heftier shapes (like croissant and teardrop hoops) definitely are having their moment, a delicate and simple hoop has become the timeless staple to stock in your jewelry box, and we found a versatile pair that will quickly become your go-to.
Stefano Oro's Capri 14K Gold Hoop Earrings come in seven sizes, from double extra small to double extra large, and they are so popular that they've sold out 15 times in their lifetime. Starting at $199, the solid-gold earrings are more affordable than options you'll find at your local boutique shops or big-name retailers like Saks, but we also have an exclusive sale code for 20% off to sweeten the deal a bit more.

The reason the brand is able to keep prices relatively low is that they cut out the middleman: These come "straight from the factory," according to the brand, reducing the steps between the gold getting melted down and molded to the final hoops reaching your doorstep. While yellow gold is the best match to recent celebrity looks, these earrings also come in white and rose gold for the same prices and in the same sizes.
People who buy a pair of these earrings wind up coming back to get more, too, either to swap out sizes like Lively often does (we've spotted her in everything from extra large, thin hoops to small huggies) or to stack along the lobe with multiple piercings. One shopper said she bought the large, medium, and extra small, raving, "I love them all."

Others love their pair so much that they go on to get the earrings as gifts for their sisters, daughters, nieces, and husbands, and when these have been sold out, some shoppers have even begged for a restock.
"I am absolutely in love with these earrings, Stefano," one shopper penned to the brand. "They are beautiful, elegant and sexy. Your gold has made me fall back in love with wearing gold again after decades of not! I just picked up another pair for my precious young niece's Sweet 16th birthday coming up … They are ageless and timeless. Beauty and elegance. Please oh please bring them back. I need a pair in the yellow gold in extra large so I can swap them out for evenings out. I don't typically beg."

We saw another top-seller from this brand a few weeks ago, the 24-karat gold Ingot Pendant, and can definitely see the appeal of the brand: The gold was really bright in person, with a deep color and buttery luster that's noticeable even in pictures. According to happy shoppers, the quality of the gold hoops is also high, with people calling them a "great value" for "outstanding craftsmanship and materials" and commenting on the "very nice shine," too. Another selling point people note is that, because of the tubing structure that makes them hollow, they're really lightweight (one shopper commented, "can hardly tell I'm wearing them"), and even those with sensitive ears have no issues and find the clasp secure despite the hoops' thinness.
While there is a shipping fee, the discount code we were able to secure for Parade readers pays for that and then some. Use the promo code SHOPGOLD20, valid for just one more week, at checkout for 20% off your purchase before these sell out again. If you don't absolutely love them, you have 30 days to return them for a full refund.
