Another vote for silver! I only wish there were more bags with it available~ The only non-silver hardware bags I have are my Balenciaga's. Praying they'll be released with new silver hw soon.
 
My first instinct was to say "silver" but it really depends on each bag. I personally don't wear any yellow gold so I prefer silver tones, but I do have bags with gold HW. I think if the gold is too yellow, it looks cheap.
 
I used to be very strict on the silver hardware idea, but have definitely come around. There are so many beautiful bags out there that do look better with gold hardware.

Totally agree with SuLi - I used to be very strict and buy silver HW bags only. Now I have several bags with patina gold - brass HW (mulberries mostly) which I love and use more than the silver HW ones and today I bummed around town and went into a Francesco Biasia shop and there were truly lovely bags with shiny gold HW. I don´t need another bag right now, but gold HW surely wouldn´t stop me buying a bag now.
 
I prefer silver mainly because all my jewelery is silver and I tend to dress very casual. That being said, I have a few bags with gold hardware that I think looks great on the bag.
 
Definitely silver. In fact no matter how much I liked a bag, if it had gold on it, I couldn't use it. I've never been a fan of yellow gold.
All my jewellery is either silver or white gold too :smile1:
:yes: :yes: :yes: I am glad it isn't just me. It saves me a fortune as bags seem more often to have gold/brass hardware and that isn't my preference.
