Mixing Metals?

[thebella111]

I personally prefer silver. I'm half asian, and I find that yellow gold can look tacky on me because of the yellow in my skintone.

However, I have handbags with gold hardware that I use all of the time, I guess I don't count handbag hardware as a part of my "no-yellow-gold" rule lol

I usually don't mix

Mix & match can work well, keep it simple though

I'm so anal I match my jewelry, handbags and shoes.
I've got to break this cycle! Tonight, I may try silver jewelry with GHW handbag/shoes.

I like to wear both metals, but I like them to be tied in some how. I think my TT watch really helps integrate both metals.

i say if they compliment eachother, go for it!

I'm all about mixing...I just put on what I feel like that day.

I'm wearing my diamond white gold prong studs with a yellow gold necklace...diamond match any colour, and the prongs on studs are so small, they blend in with the diamond and aren't that noticable... Go for it!

I'm the same way; one piece of two-tone jewelry like a watch really opens up the options for mixing your other pieces.

I agree, and I like to mix white and yellow gold by tying them together. I usually wear 2 "sister" (1 white, 1 yellow) bangles with 1 white, 1 yellow band for thumb rings. My watch and wedding band are both 2tone as well, so I figure I'm covered, to wear whatever other pieces I like in any color. I have a pair of diamond hoops in yellow gold, that I like to wear often because the prongs are white gold, and it seems like the 2tone effect too.

i'll wear white gold diamond studs, rose gold necklace, and yellow gold and white bracelets...I think if its evenly dispersed throughout your jewellery that you are wearing it doesn't look obvious and forced, everything works together.

Ditto. You can wear whatever without having to think twice about it!

Hm, I guess everyone mixes metals now! I used to think it was kind of odd, but now I don't think so at all. It's nice to have a bit of everything

^^ Agree. Four years ago I wouldn't have done it. I wouldn't dare mixing anything. Clothing, fabric, metals, etc. The purse forum has definitely change my style !

I was wondering how my fellow TPFers mix their white gold jewelry with their yellow or rose gold pieces. Growing up in the 90's I wore all yellow gold, as such was the trend, but as I got older (particularly in middle and HS) I only wore silver and WG. About a year and a half ago I got my Cartier Love bracelet in RG and I got the matching ring this spring. I have since tried to buy some YG to match (as cartier's RG is very subtle and goes with YG) but I hate to get rid of all my WG jewels. I would love to see pics of how you all mix your gold colors and still pull off a sleek look. TIA!
