Style rules for gold

Styling with14 carat gold jewellery is a game of contrasts - on the one hand a minimalist approach based on the principle ‘less is more’, on the other hand maximalist compositions with the metal in the leading role. The key to success here is moderation and a sense of proportion. The 60/30/10 rule works perfectly, with the dominant colour accounting for 60% of the total, the complementary colour 30% and the third colour, if present, 10%.

This ensures that the jewellery doesn't overwhelm and doesn't lose cohesion with the rest of the styling. It is also important that the accessories harmonise with each other in terms of texture, colour and form to create a cohesive whole.

What to wear with gold?

Gold jewellery looks particularly good with warm, deep colours like beige, brown, orange, red, navy blue or purple - all these colours bring out the shine and elegance. It looks equally striking in contrasting styles, such as pure white or classic black, to create a sophisticated effect. 585 gold jewellery fits perfectly into a variety of styles - from casual boho to romantic elegance to urban casual. As a result, they can be worn successfully with a linen dress as well as an evening outfit or your favourite t-shirt with jeans.

Types of jewellery layering

Layering your gold jewellery is one of the most fashionable trends of recent years. Combining chains of different lengths allows to achieve the effect of lightness and depth - a short choker clinging to the neck may beautifully correspond with a small medallion hanging below, and the whole is complemented by a long necklace reaching down to the neckline. Such a set is not only eye-catching, but also gives you the opportunity to express yourself through your choice of pendants - from symbolic to minimalist. The same goes for stacking rings and bracelets - combining several elements on one hand is a way to add flavour to your look. It's worth bearing in mind the balance - if you choose to layer necklaces in a striking way, the rest of the accessories can remain more subdued.

Personalise your jewellery - beauty type, symbols, gifts

Also, matching the colour of gold to your skin tone is a way to enhance your natural beauty. Warm beauty types go well with classic yellow gold - its shade harmonises with olive complexion and golden highlights in the hair. Cool beauty types with fair, porcelain skin and a silvery gleam in the eyes can opt for white gold, which does not overwhelm but subtly emphasises the delicacy of the features. Neutral types have the most room for experimentation - yellow as well as rose or white gold will look great when matched to the styling.

Personalised jewellery is also becoming increasingly popular. Initials, zodiac signs, symbolic dates or birthstones are gaining new meaning as an expression of individuality and an emotional connection to jewellery. Necklaces with a letter of the name, rings with an engraved date or bracelets with a pendant in the shape of a constellation are small details that tell personal stories. Such details mean that jewellery is no longer just decoration - it becomes a symbol.

That's why gold works perfectly as a gift - universal and yet very personal. It suits every occasion: birthdays, holidays, anniversaries or the birth of a child. With a wide range of shapes and styles it's easy to find the right piece for both the minimalist and the fan of glamorous accessories. Gold jewellery is not only pleasing to the eye - it is also a beautiful way to say ‘I remember’, ‘I love you’ or ‘this is just for you’.

How to store and clean gold?

To ensure that your gold jewellery retains its lustre for many years to come, it's worth following a few basic care rules:

• Storage: it is best to keep gold jewellery in separate bags or boxes lined with soft fabric. Avoid contact with other metals and hard surfaces, which can cause scratches.
• Cleaning: use a soft jewellery cloth or warm water with a little mild dish-washing liquid to wipe the jewellery. Avoid strong detergents, alcohol or toothpaste.
• Good practice: remove your jewellery before bathing, swimming in chlorinated water or using cosmetics (perfumes, creams, hairspray). These substances can tarnish the surface of the gold.
• Regular inspection: check clasps and stone settings from time to time - especially if you wear your jewellery every day.

Gold is more than an accessory - it's an investment in yourself and your style, and a way of expressing your personality. Whether you choose classic earrings, a choker or a personalised necklace with an initial - you have complete freedom to create your own sets and styles. Combine textures, play with colours and mix lengths to create combinations that suit you. Open up your heart - and jewellery box - to new possibilities.
