Gold offers a quick chic fix to your wardrobe bringing with it elements of luxury, sophistication and maturity. Wonder how to inject golden hues into your wardrobe? Stay on to find out.
Being a wearable shade that reflects light, gold can be a wonderful statement piece or used wisely as accents.
When I was young but old enough to have my ears pierced and wear jewelry, I thought silver was my thing.
Gold for the Old (Notice what I did there? No? Never mind!)
In my rebellious years, I associated gold jewelry with aged people (usually, above 18) who were old enough to get married or were already far along in their golden years.
I strongly felt that it would be the death of anything that’s ‘cool’ with me if I were to be caught wearing anything made of gold or plated with gold. The teenage mind was indeed a powerful thing where any given self-perceived uncoolness would be far worse than anything else!
So gold pants or skirts were simply just out of the question.
The Return To Gold
Fast forward up to now, this grown up gal has changed her mind!
Realizing that gold suits me better as it complements my yellow skin undertone, the teen rebel with a faux silver fetish has been finally put to rest. I’ve not a qualm with mixing gold and silver jewelry either.
Ever since my stumbling into the gold bandwagon, the idea of wearing gold-inspired wardrobe and accessories doesn’t feel unthinkable anymore. Imagine gold studded shoes, vintage-inspired gold purses, belts with bronze gold beading and blouses with gold appliques.
Aah, they’re all just awesome, right?
Gold, just like any other color in fashion comes in a wide variety of shades. From pale gold to golden brown, there’s a sea of looks that can be interpreted in between and the fact that these glittery shades will always be all-season appropriate is one that makes gold so covetable.
