Have you ever noticed how much difference earrings can make to an outfit? It's strange, really, because they're generally situated above the ensemble, but the right earrings can take an outfit from bland to glam.
We think these Faceted Gem Drop Earrings, $39 at Banana Republic, are the type of earrings that can do that. No, they're not the fanciest earrings we've ever seen, but what we love is that they're simple enough to be paired with a casual outfit, like jeans and a silky tank, but could just as easily be worn with a gown for a black tie event.

Plus, we're suckers for that deep shade of greenish-blue -- there's not much it won't go with, and if you've got earrings in the right color and the right style, like these, what else do you really need?
