How to wear gold jewelry. Just like with my makeup, in the summer I tend to gravitate to gold accessories. When I was younger I used to hate gold jewelry. I have no idea why, perhaps silver was more accessible and I built up a fairly large silver based collection of jewelry. Now, however, I’ve realized that gold jewelry has a warming effect on my complexion. Of course I’m referring to yellow and rose gold as white is very similar to silver, at least on the first glance. Rose and yellow shades seem to have a softening effect on my skin almost like an airbrush effect. Almost.
Wearing earrings has a similar effect to makeup. The light reflects off the metal and warms the face. Without harsh contrasts it has a softening effect. I also love the way gold looks with bright colours.
Of course if I’m starting to accumulate earrings, I can’t be without some bracelets. I like these because I can mix them with some of my silver bangles. The metals really seem to work well with each other, the warm contrasting the cool.
Last but not least are rings and necklaces. Mixing metals is a great way to introduce some gold into your collection. Layering silver and gold necklaces is also an option, or even choosing pieces where the metals are already combined. A thin gold chain will always add a touch of elegance to any outfit, giving you an air of sophistication. Whatever you choose remember to have fun when picking your jewelry. If you love it everyone will notice!

I would love to see your entire jewelry collection! You have some amazing pieces!
Ha! It’s kind of big…..I just hate letting jewelry go.

I feel the same way. When I was younger I hated gold jewelry, now I prefer it over silver. Must be the age thing in my case, lol. I love your dangling green/gold statement earrings.

Oh thanks, i just got those and I love them! I’m starting to love gold more and more!

Beautiful jewelry !
I can relate with the experience of having disliked gold at a younger age. I too can’t quite say why it is that I disliked it so much, but now that I’m older I’ve come to realize it looks much better on me than silver ever will. Oh, the follies of youth.
Exactly! I feel like I really missed out.

I’m one of those who adores BOTH – silver and gold – and I don’t get hating either one of them! They are edgy, beautiful, silver is good for the winter and gold for summer 🙂 Loved these pictures!

That’s funny – I usually go for silver in summer and gold in winter. And rose gold year round 😉

Oh rose gold is always good, it’s actually my favourite!
Perfect! That’s what I do. Silver in the winter and gold in the summer!

What a nice collection, I particularly like the bracelet with the enamelling on and the Red earrings! Your photographs are stunning! The backdrop with the Bronze bag is beautifully juxtaposed with the jewellery!

You’re right — gold does create a warming impression on us. I didn’t realize this until I started wearing women’s jewelry. Funny how much we don’t know until we try new experiences.
Exactly! That’s why I love to try new things!

Love your pretty collection 🙂
Thank you so much!

I am not a lover of gold like I used to be. When you age and get older, it just isn’t flattering on the skin tones like silver is. The silver brightens the skin and hey, us older ladies have to do whatever we can. But you girlfriend of course can still rock the gold!
Oh I didn’t know that… On the bright side platinum is nice and bright….
xo
I really like them too, especially the bohemian style ones, i wear them all the time.
