Gold Fashion Trend

Every season one metal becomes�the trend, and for Summer 2012 Gold has taken the lead.�It looks great against every skin tone as it can be shiny or matte, and bright or subtle. I like that Gold can look rich and expensive – even if it’s a faux accessory.

Really, it’s up to the wearer with how bold they want to be. �Gold Lam� leggings aren’t my style but I would rock a sequin blazer or Gold accessories.

Wearing Gold nail polish is an inexpensive way to be on trend� – without a big commitment. Gold donned nails look chic typing away on the keyboard…carrying a shopping basket…holding a cocktail glass….

Here are some ways that Gold can be introduced into a wardrobe:

Get it:

1�& 2 – Steffen Schraut Silk Top ($233) & Michael Kors Sequin Mini Skirt (�150)

3 & 4 – Alexon Gold Sequin Pashmina�(�20) & Forever 21 Layered Bead Bib Necklace ($9.80)

5 & 6 – �Blue Nile Ball Earrings ($49) & Forever 21 Double Link Toggle Bracelet�($6.80)

9 & 10 – Robbi & Nikki Gold Sequin Blazer ($111) & Hunter Wellies�Carnaby Boa Snake – Gold (�100)

Gold is not loved by everyone so I say wear what you�like – maybe Silver is more suitable. (My closet and jewelry box have more Silver pieces.)

Get it:

1 & 2 -�L’Agence Silver�Lam� Wrap Dress�($190) &�Nervous System “Root” Earrings�($40)

3 & 4 -�Aqua Multi Layered Silver Cuff�($44) & Amrita Singh Anacapri Ring�($50)

9 & 10 -�H&M Metallic pants ($34) & Melissa Papel�in Silver�Flats�($88)

Metallics never go out of style – Gold, Silver, Rose Gold, Pewter, Gunmetal Grey, Bronze, etc – so just hang onto the pieces bought in previous seasons, and�the trend for each will�come around�again.
