Lele Sadoughi Style Guide
THE MET X LELE TURQUOISE WEDJAT EYE STUD EARRINGS
Shop the THE MET X LELE TURQUOISE WEDJAT EYE STUD EARRINGSInspired by ancient Egyptian amulets reimagined through modern glamour, The Met x Lele Sadoughi Turquoise Wedjat Eye Stud Earrings are 14K gold-plated statement studs finished in turquoise and onyx enamel. Petite enough for everyday wear yet rich with symbolism, they anchor any look with a flash of museum-worthy craftsmanship.
10 Ways to Wear It
- Layer two delicate gold chains — one choker, one longer pendant — with these Wedjat studs to keep the eyes traveling downward, paired with a sleek low ponytail and an oversized blazer for crisp city polish.
- Stack these turquoise studs against a single chunky gold cuff and let them be the only sparkle up top, styled with a tucked white tee, high-waisted trousers, and a structured croc tote.
- Pair the Wedjat studs with a crystal-encrusted knotted headband, a silk scarf tied at the neck, and a fitted cashmere turtleneck for a polished daytime look that nods to old-world opulence.
- Wear these studs with a wide satin headband pushed back, a stack of slim bangles, and an oversized button-down half-tucked into wide-leg denim for that effortless fashion-editor off-duty look.
- Combine the turquoise studs with a pearl-encrusted mini headband, layered silk neck scarves knotted loosely, and a softly draped midi dress for a romantic gallery-opening moment.
- Style these with a sleek metallic headband, a single statement cocktail ring, and a tonal monochrome suit so the turquoise pop becomes the entire color story of the outfit.
- Pair the Wedjat studs with a rosette-embellished silk topper in hair, dainty gold huggies stacked up the ear (different zone), and a crisp shirtdress cinched with a thin gold belt.
- Layer these with an embellished wide headband, a fine chain with a tiny turquoise pendant that echoes the eye motif, and a simple slip dress for an art-opening after-hours look.
- Wear the studs with a crystal hair pin set, layered whisper-thin gold necklaces, and a sharp blazer over a bare-shoulder knit for an elevated take on power dressing.
- Pair them with a satin bow headband, a single bold cuff bracelet, and a soft draped blouse tucked into tailored shorts for a polished warm-weather dinner look.
Occasions
- Sunday stroll through The Met to view the Egyptian Wing, paired with a silk scarf and structured tote.
- Brunch with the girls at a sunlit bistro, where the turquoise pop lifts an otherwise neutral linen look.
- After-work cocktails at a museum-adjacent rooftop, styled with a sleek headband and tonal suiting.
- Dinner date at a candlelit wine bar, layered with whisper-thin gold chains and a silk slip.
- Gallery opening in the Lower East Side, paired with a crystal headband and a tailored tuxedo jacket.
How to Style It With Your Hair
Hair DownWear hair in soft, brushed-out waves tucked behind the ears so the Wedjat eyes sit front and center against the jawline — finish with a deep side part for a touch of old-Hollywood glamour.
PonytailA sleek, low polished ponytail at the nape keeps the silhouette clean and lets the turquoise enamel pop against the neck and collarbone.
Half-UpA half-up twist secured with a gold crystal pin pulls the front away from the face so the studs read clearly, while soft lengths cascade over the shoulders.
BunA low chignon with a soft face-framing tendril works beautifully — the sculptural shape contrasts with the geometric Wedjat eye and feels especially chic for evening.

Styling Tips
- Store flat in the custom Met x Lele pouch to protect the enamel finish and prevent the 14K plating from scratching against harder stones.
- The 1/2" by 1" scale makes these ideal everyday studs — bold enough to anchor a look, refined enough to wear to the office with a crystal knotted headband.
- Let the turquoise be your single color moment: keep necklaces whisper-thin and metalwork tonal gold so the Wedjat eye reads as the focal point.
- Pair with other Masterpiece Collection Vol. 3 pieces — the symbolic iconography is meant to be collected and curated across zones.
- Push hair behind the ear or sweep into a low chignon to fully reveal the silhouette; half-hidden studs lose their museum-quality detail.
