Things You'll Need:
- Assorted gold accessories and clothing
-
Step 1
Choose your golds wisely. Brassy, yellow gold can be harsh on some complexions. The best shades have hints of coolness to them. Think white, rose and matte gold.
-
Step 2
Whether it's a sequin party dress, a soft satin shirt or a short, velvet mini, gold is definitely a statement. That means leave the head-to-toe gold at the Disco and pair with simple neutrals.
-
Step 3
Seasonal combinations of color that'll work well with gold include chocolate brown, navy and dark burgundy in fall. Try soft peaches, creams and mint greens in the spring.
-
Step 4
Accessories are another great way to get gold into your get up. Small clutches, earrings or groupings of bangles act as an accent to other patterns, colors and prints.
-
Step 5
Finally, if you've always been more inclined to wear silver or platinum, try introducing gold in small steps. Buy inexpensive earrings or a big chunky ring. And if you're not into jewelry, opt instead for a feminine, beaded clutch. The color, mixed with embellishments and textures, will add a touch of glamor to your most basic standbys.
