Type of earring (4)

I believe the answer is:

hoop

(Other definitions for hoop that I've seen before include "Circular band, in basketball, say" , "Rigid circular band" , "Circlet" , "Large ring" , "Wood, metal or plastic band" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.com, the Family Time and The New York Times.
