At Smoothie London, we believe your ear stack should be as unique as you are - a balance of personality, polish, and play. Whether you’re starting with a single lobe piercing or already rocking a curated constellation of jewels, building your dream stack is all about thoughtful design, high-quality pieces, and a little creativity.
Step 1: Start With the Foundations
Every great stack begins with lobes. Think of them as your base layer — solid, versatile, and endlessly buildable. Our sterling silver huggies are the everyday essential: durable, lightweight, hypoallergenic, and perfect for stacking. They’re the foundation to any high-quality look, giving you that chic, put-together feel without even trying.

Step 2: Add Dimension With Flatbacks
Once your base is set, it’s time to build upward. Titanium flatbacks are our secret weapon for comfort and style - no poking, no irritation, just sleek designs that let you sleep, shower, and live in your jewellery.
From minimalist solitaires to sparkling chain drops, these little details bring elegance to your cartilage and balance to your overall ear.

Step 3: Balance Is Everything
Think of your ear like a canvas. To create a well-balanced stack, distribute sparkle across different zones - helix, conch, tragus, rook. A mix of huggies, studs, and statement pieces keeps things visually interesting without overwhelming the eye.
Our guide to the art of a well-balanced stack breaks down exactly where to place each piece for maximum impact.
Step 4: Elevate Without the Commitment
Not ready for another piercing just yet? We’ve got you. Ear cuffs and connector chains are the ultimate cheat codes - no needles, no healing, no fuss. They add instant sparkle, shape, and drama to any look, giving the illusion of extra piercings without the commitment.

Step 5: Make It Personal
The best stacks are the ones that tell your story. Mix textures, play with asymmetry, and don’t be afraid to layer in statement huggies or charms. Whether you’re drawn to celestial sparkle, dainty details, or bold shapes, your ear stack should feel like you.

“This is the only jewellery brand I buy now! All of the earrings are beautiful but the cartilage earrings are so comfy (both the labret & ball back) and I can sleep with them in with no discomfort. They’re also durable and don’t fall out easily!” – Bronwyn
