It is rich yet warm, and gold is now more precious than ever. Perhaps it's due to the rising cost of gold that we now become gold diggers and want it all to glint. One flashy gold item is all you need to match with everything else, even bright strong colors such as pink, green and blue. It might seem a bit 80's, but the final look will work just fine. Metallics have been on trend for the past few years now, and they don’t seem to be going anywhere soon. Shifting from the harsh metallics (dark bronze, deep pewter, bright pink) of the past few years to soft gold, is one great way to update your wardrobe. And don’t be scared of mixing metallics either! We’re seeing lots of gold handbags with silver hardware- a great way to mix and match your own personal style.
