Weighing heavy on my mind, and my heart...this one is tough to write. My husband, my best friend and love of my life was recently diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a blood cancer that affects the bone marrow. It’s still sinking in. I’m still asking, why did this happen to him? How is this now our life? I keep thinking I’m having one of those horrible nightmares that I’m gonna wake up from, and say “whew” thank goodness that was just a dream. But I’m not. It’s not just a bad dream. It’s real.

It all starts with an idea, a vague inspiration, until I can’t contain it anymore and I have to sketch it out. There are an infinite number of possibilities. This is exciting, and sometimes daunting at the same time. At its core, a hoop earring is nothing more than a circle made of metal. But that’s really just the beginning… the jumping off point for inspiration. As a designer, I’ve never been plagued with creative drought. Quite the opposite.

Toby Myles • March 5, 2019 What’s your “go-to” earring when you want to look great, but you don’t want to put much thought into it? Your hoop earrings. When you slide into your favorite jeans and soft t-shirt, which earrings do you reach for? Your hoops. Feeling kinda frumpy and light years from sexy? Throw on your favorite hoops and I’ll bet you’ll feel just a tiny bit better. They can be small and simple or large and embellished, but there’s a pair of hoop earrings to boost any mood or go with any outfit. And you literally, can...
