Ah, Nina Dobrev. She does deliver a piquant freshness to showbiz, and her look is always young and vibrant. I was momentarily stuck on this photo — perhaps the earrings caught my fancy.

I find it particularly complicated to wear bold chandelier earrings in jeans because it makes me feel oddly overdressed.

Wearing Stella & Dot jewelry, Nina Dobrev attended the John Varvatos Stuart House Benefit at John Varvatos Los Angeles in West Hollywood.

Seeing an oversized pair of coral earrings on Nina makes me want to rethink my attitude: it looks cute, casual, perky, trendy, and appropriate for spring!

She wore a pair of chandeliers by Stella & Dot to the John Varvatos Stuart House Benefit held at John Varvatos Los Angeles in West Hollywood. The corals are in perfect graduating hues, from a light peach to orange to a deep red.

To contrast the colors, she chose a cobalt blue blazer. The earrings retail for $49 at the Stella & Dot website. Not bad, or what? A turquoise version is also available.

Now, in my spur-of-the-moment passion, I hopped on to Nordstrom and quickly found my own spring-y chandeliers:

The design is almost exactly the same except that the first teardrop was added on to make it 3-tier instead of just two. This one fetches $58, and I think it is significantly longer. It comes in purple and pink, too.

Here are some earrings from Shopbop that I would wear with jeans, the more casual pieces with an earthy vibe. Just the right price and just the right statements for spring!

And if I were to splurge, I’d have no second thoughts on getting these earrings from Dara Ettinger. The colors of the stones are just unique! They go well with denim and white, too! Love, love!
