The Olympics may be over, but gold and silver remain on our minds at Donald Haack. A favorite fall jewelry trend features gold and silver—specifically, gold accents on silver.
Embracing the Trend
Worried about mixing metals? Charlotte’s own Melissa Lamkin, fashion stylist extraordinaire, gives us her glamourous take on silver and gold. ”I don’t think wearing gold and silver together breaks any fashion rule — like the one that says you can’t wear white between Labor Day and Memorial Day — but I’ve had clients and friends who disagree. Options like these, with small hints of gold with silver, are the perfect pieces to suggest to my clients that have a hard time mixing their metals.”
Jewelry designer Phillip Gavriel has a special talent for self-editing, putting the gold in all the right places (and only those places) for the perfect effect that’s classic and fresh.
Stylist’s Pick
“I wear a big gold menswear-inspired watch every single day — regardless of my other accessories — and I’d love to have this bracelet [right] to add to my arm party when piling on various pieces!” ~ Melissa Lamkin, Fashion Stylist
When combining two precious metals into a timeless design, how can you lose?
