Silver vs. Gold Jewellery: How to Choose Based on Your Skin Tone

Silver vs. Gold Jewellery: How to Choose Based on Your Skin Tone

Ever stood in front of the mirror holding a gold necklace in one hand and a silver one in the other, asking, “Which one actually suits me better?” You're not alone.

While style and preference play a big part, there’s a simple tip that can help make your decision easier: your skin tone.

 

Warm, Cool or Neutral... Let’s Break It Down

 

Warm Undertones

If your skin has a golden or peachy hue, and your veins appear greenish, you likely have warm undertones. Gold jewellery tends to complement this beautifully, enhancing that sun-kissed glow. Think of our best-selling Sidewalk Gold Necklace or the Luxe Drop Gold Huggies—rich tones that bring warmth to your everyday look.

 

Cool Undertones

Bluish veins, pinkish skin, or a tendency to burn before tanning? Cool-toned skin looks incredible with silver jewellery. It offers a fresh, clean contrast and highlights your natural radiance. Our Harmony Silver Hoops or the Game Day Necklace in Rhodium are go-to options for cool-toned beauties.

 

Neutral Undertones

Lucky you—if you have a mix of warm and cool, you can wear both metals with ease. Try mixing and matching gold and silver pieces for a layered, dimensional look (and yes, it’s 100% in style).

 

It’s Not Just About Rules

Your jewellery is an expression of you. If you love the look of gold, wear it with pride. If silver feels more “you,” go for it. And if you’re feeling both?

 

Our waterproof and sweat-proof pieces are made for stacking, styling, and breaking the rules, without compromising on durability.
