Nowadays - you can't tear me away from the jewellery sections online. I can't stop buying and wearing it! I have the classic Pandora bracelet with a few charms on, an 'L', two spacers and a running shoe. Just thought you'd like to know the specifics. I also have a couple of other silver pieces, however, there is one stand-out metal that sits in my jewellery tray - gold.
I'm obsessed with gold jewellery, It's so classic and I think it suits me better than silver jewellery. Can you actually suit a different metal better than others? Maybe. Anyway, gold jewellery - I love it. Whenever I accessorise an outfit, gold jewellery is a must. It literally goes with everything I seem to wear, which is a bonus. I mainly wear imitation gold, as real gold jewellery is not the cheapest jewellery on the market. But that's fine with me, as long as I get to wear some sort of gold, I'm happy! As you can already probably tell by now, this post is basically an ode to gold jewellery.
It could be yellow gold, white gold or rose gold, I'll still wear it.
Here are a few reasons why I always love wearing gold jewellery -
1) IT'S SO VERSATILE
___________
Gold jewellery goes with anything. Literally. There's not an outfit in my wardrobe that I wouldn't accessorise gold with. Ok, sometimes with a cool, softer look, I may go for silver. But more often or not, instead of silver, I go for more of a softer gold. There's always a gold for every outfit. I need to make that my new mantra.
2) IT'S CLASSIC
___________
It's such a classic and timeless metal and gold symbolises warmth to me. You can't have a jewellery box without it containing a piece of gold of some sort.
3) IT HAS HEALTH BENEFITS
___________
Say what? Yes, it's true, apparently wearing gold jewellery can reap the health benefits. Who knew?! It apparently regulates temperature, boosts immunity and helps overall wellbeing. This is according to science. Who thought of studying the health benefits of gold jewellery?! I hope that scientist has gone on to greater things.
4) IT'S AESTHETICALLY PLEASING
___________
Any Instagram photo I shoot, I always (try to) remember to wear some gold jewellery, whether that be a necklace, bracelet or ring. I think it looks so aesthetically pleasing on the photo. Every time I see someone I follow wearing gold of some sort, if they haven't tagged the brand, I like to ask them where it's from!
5) IT'S ALLOWED ME TO DISCOVER BRANDS
___________
Like I said in the previous point, I like to find out where people buy their jewellery from, and, because of this, it's allowed me to discover brands, new and old. I love bookmarking brands to my saved items on Instagram and treating myself to a new piece once in a while (or when I can afford to)!
There you have it, these are the reason why I always love wearing gold jewellery. I realise that gold will not be to everybody's taste. You may prefer silver or not wear any jewellery at all like I did in my teens. Gold jewellery will forever be my go to accessory, more than bags!
Are you a gold jewellery lover like myself? Or do you prefer silver? Or love both?! Let me know!

It really is timeless, it's so classic! Yes I know, I was so surprised that it has health benefits! x
DeleteI really wish I could wear jewellery more! As a beauty therapist I can only really wear earrings but I love wearing rings and necklaces my favourite gold is rose gold for jewellery! X
ReplyDeleteAh that's such a shame Aaliyah! My best friend does nails and she can't wear much jewellery for that reason! I do love a bit of rose gold jewellery, it's so subtle and classy! x
DeleteI've never been a gold girl, my engagement and wedding real is silver. But some gold bits are just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteRosie
I think if/when I was ever to get engaged or married, I would want my engagement and wedding rings to be silver too!
DeleteI'm a silver fan, I have a few sentimental gold pieces but I don't wear them. My wedding and engagement rings are silver too! Xx
ReplyDeleteI do like silver also, I always think that wedding and engagement rings should be silver anyway! xx
DeleteI’m definitely a silver jewellery person. For some reason gold just doesn’t suit me. I’m not sure if it’s because of my skin tone or colouring or what.
ReplyDeleteI’ve really got into jewellery recently. Stacking bracelets and pretty necklaces are my favourites.
I do love the palm tree necklace on your pics, I would wear that in silver! X
I do love pretty necklaces, stacking bracelets is one trend I'm eager to get on board with! x
DeleteI used to be such a silver jewellery snob! Would never even consider gold but i love how gold jewellery looks more sophisticated and goes with so much more!
ReplyDeleteEllie // www.thediaryofellie.com
A silver jewellery snob, that's a type of snob I've never heard of before!
DeleteGold jewellery does go with so much though doesn't it? x
I'm not the biggest jewellery wearer either I wear a necklace and only ever put earrings in for a night out or an occasion. I never really wear rings but when I do I never really wear gold I just don't think it suits me, but there are so many benefits to wearing gold jewellery I had no idea it was great for your health!
ReplyDeleteIt's so surprising how many health benefits there are to wearing gold jewellery Sarah! x
DeleteI have so much jewellery but definitely find myself sticking to the same pieces. I prefer silver but I do also love Rose gold.
ReplyDeleteRose gold jewellery is so pretty also, it goes with quite a lot of outfits too!
DeleteI am a sucker for gold jewellery at the moment!
ReplyDeleteDanielle | thereluctantblogger.co.uk
It's so pretty isn't it?!
DeleteGold jewellery is such a classic. But I remember I used to despise them because I think they made me look like I'm 40 haha! It's all just in my head. It's really gorgeous though and one can look so "expensive" wearing them xx
ReplyDeletelenne | lennezulkiflly.com
Yeah I felt the same before wearing gold jewellery too Lenne! xx
DeleteSuch gorgeous pieces and gold jewellery really is classic! I'm more of a silver fan but I'd love to be able to pull off gold x
ReplyDeleteThank you Della! Silver is such a lovely metal too x
DeleteSome gorgeous pieces here! I'm a fan of silver personally!
ReplyDeleteSilver is just as an amazing piece of jewellery too! x
DeleteI only ever wear gold jewellery. If you looked at my jewellery collection you'd laugh, it's literally all the same. Yellow gold with hints of pearl. I sound so old before my time! I used to work in a high street jewellers before going freelance with my blog and the amount of white metals compared to yellow gold was crazy. White metals are much more 'popular' these days, but like you say, gold is timeless. I'd feel strange wearing silver or white gold. PS. Totally didn't know about the health benefits of YG. I'm taking that one! Haha.

Nothing wrong with that Claire! My jewellery collection is mainly gold too!
DeleteI agree babe, gold is timeless and won't ever go out of fashion in the jewellery world!
I know, the health benefits are surprising! x
Gold jewellery is just so pretty! I love to switch up between gold and silver, especially with delicate pieces.
ReplyDeleteJordanne || Thelifeofaglasgowgirl.co.uk
Delicate pieces are good to switch up!
DeleteYou have got some lovely jewellery pieces! I mostly have silver. I prefer silver earrings and rings but have got some gold necklaces. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLauren.
Thank you Lauren! x
Deletegold just hits different!! i'm totally with you on how it suits me better than silver, and how it exudes warmth :') it reminds me of summer sunsets, and the sun hitting the sea, and everything lovely about the world. i had no idea there were health benefits, omg, all the more reason to invest in some great pieces :')
ReplyDeletebrineandbooks.com
I'm glad you agree with me Macey! I agree, gold just exudes warmth doesn't it?! I was surprised about the health benefits also!
DeleteI love gold jewellery, and can only wear gold or silver as I react to the rest! So the pieces I pick are usually simple, but I love them!
ReplyDeleteSimple pieces of jewellery end up being the best pieces we own!
DeleteWow, what an informative post! I didn't know gold jewellery had health benefits. I'm usually more of a silver jewellery person, but your photos make the gold look so elegant! :)
ReplyDeleteNo I didn't either until I researched it! Silver is an elegant jewellery, but it's good that you can see gold that way after reading this post! x
DeleteI only wear gold too. I don't know what it is but I hate the appearance of silver on my skin. I totally agree that gold is so much more aesthetically pleasing. And I love the classic simplicity of it too x

I'm like you Sophie, silver just doesn't sit well on my skin as much as gold does! Gold really is aesthetically pleasing and it's so classic, I just love wearing it! x
DeleteI used to wear silver when I was younger but switched to gold in my twenties and never looked back - gold makes everything look better! x
ReplyDeleteI agree Lisa, gold does make everything look better! x
DeleteI used to not be a huge gold jewelry wearer. But now I love it too! It is so classic for sure!
ReplyDeleteIt definitely is a classic!
DeleteI don't wear loads of jewellery but I love gold! White and rose gold seems to be the fashion lately though!

Yes it does seem to be the trend lately doesn't it?! x
DeleteI'm normally a silver jewellery kind of person but I do like the odd gold piece too. I had no idea it could have health benefits though, that's so cool!
ReplyDeleteTash x
It's so surprising that gold jewellery has health benefits, I wonder if silver has health benefits too! x
DeleteI recently made the switch from silver to gold and it's the best decision! Looks way better with my skin tone, and a pretty colour to wear overall. Great post.
ReplyDeleteGold is just so good isn't it?!
DeleteOoh! I love jewelry so much but I can't wear it! I rip it off me within the hour. It's rare. I do love both gold and silver pieces though! I've got to learn how to keep them on haha You've got great pieces here, Lucy! x
ReplyDeleteLynn | https://www.lynnmumbingmejia.com
Ah really?! I hope you learn to keep them on! x
DeleteMy issue with gold jewellery is I grew up in an area where a lot of people wore LOTS of tacky gold jewelry and it just put me off, I much prefer silver
ReplyDeleteFair enough lovely!
DeleteI would wear jewellery every day of I could! They're such timeless pieces and always a great add on! I love gold or rose gold and was totally surprised by the health benefits of it! x
ReplyDeleteThey really are a great add on to any outfit Cristina! x
DeleteI really like the look of gold jewellery, however it just doesn't suit me - the same with gold eyeshadow! Almost all of my jewellery is silver but I do have a ring that is rose gold <3 x
ReplyDeleteOh gold eyeshadow definitely doesn't suit me either Caroline! x
DeleteI used to always lean towards silver, because I hated the look of gold (well the bright tacky gold), but now I absolutley love gold. I tend to steer towards more rose gold type, but it just goes with everything, doesn't it? I didn't realise the health benefits, so I have deffo learnt something new today!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing Lucy!
