The J-hoop stud form - a curved arc that follows the lobe rather than encircling it - is a hybrid between the stud and the hoop that captures something from both: the security and simplicity of a stud with the elongated, face-framing presence of a hoop. Rachel Zoe lines the J arc with pave CZ in rhodium over sterling silver, turning the curved silhouette into a continuous arc of sparkle that catches light as the wearer moves. Butterfly back closure. The J form means the earring shows differently in profile than straight-on - a detail that makes it more interesting across the full range of viewing angles.
