What are Sleeper Earrings?
Sleeper earrings are designed for the woman who values both comfort and style.

Whether you're navigating busy work days or enjoying restful nights, our sleeper earrings move seamlessly with your lifestyle, offering the sparkle you love with the comfort you deserve.
Why Choose LYANG & CO. Sleeper Earrings?
Our sleeper earrings are crafted for the modern woman who refuses to compromise:
All-day comfort: No sharp backs or pressure points that dig into sensitive ears
From your first earrings to forever favourites, sleepers are the versatile staple your jewellery collection needs.
What Materials Make the Best Sleeper Earrings?
Designed for comfort, sleeper earrings are usually crafted from hypoallergenic and lightweight materials such as sterling silver, 9ct gold, rose gold, white gold, or titanium — stainless steel is typically too hard for this!
Our sleeper earrings are exclusively crafted in 925 sterling silver, chosen for its lightweight feel, hypoallergenic properties, and timeless appeal.
Unlike cheaper alternatives that can cause irritation, sterling silver are gentle on sensitive ears, durable everyday wear, and offers timeless elegance that catches the light beautifully, adding subtle sparkle that complements any outfit.
Finding Your Perfect Sleeper Earring Size
Sleeper earrings usually range from delicate 6mm to statement 20mm diameters, with most people finding their sweet spot between 8mm-12mm for all-day comfort:
6mm-7mm: Perfect for petite earlobes, helix piercings, or those who prefer ultra-minimalist styling
8mm-10mm: The most popular choice—ideal for standard lobe piercings and comfortable for sleeping
12mm-14mm: Great for making a subtle statement while maintaining comfort for extended wear
16mm+: Bold enough to wear solo or perfect for creating layered looks with stud earrings
Still unsure? Our earring size guide helps you visualise different sizes and find your perfect fit. Remember, sleeper earrings should feel barely there—if they're pulling or catching, try a smaller diameter for optimal comfort.
Styling Your Sleeper Earrings
The beauty of sleeper earrings lies in their versatility. These timeless pieces effortlessly transition from boardroom presentations to weekend brunches, offering endless styling possibilities:
Wear a single pair of medium sleepers for clean, professional styling that works with everything from blazers to casual knits.
Stack multiple sleepers in different sizes, or pair with stud earrings for a curated, editorial look that's still comfortable enough for all-day wear.
Combine sleepers with drop earrings for asymmetrical styling that feels modern and personal.
