Choosing the Right Gold Colour for You | Peoples Jewellers
If you have ever tried on a piece of jewellery and thought it looked better in the case, then it may be the wrong colour of gold for you. But don't despair—we have a few tips for finding what colour of gold works best with your skin tone.
The secret to choosing the right colour gold is determining your skin tone. Once you figure that out, you can shop your favourite styles with confidence, knowing you'll always look great.
Undertones are the colours that can be seen beneath the skin. To identify your undertone, take a look at your veins. Virtually everyone will fall into one of three buckets: warm, cool, or neutral.
Warm Undertones
Greenish-hued veins signal warm undertone
Cool Undertones
Blue or purple-coloured veins point to cool undertones
Neutral Undertones
Seemingly colourless or invisible veins suggest neutral undertones
There isn’t a definitive manual on how to wear gold colours. And guidelines are just that – guidelines. Ultimately the choice is yours. If you find a jewellery style you love - whatever colour gold it may be - we encourage you to wear it, love it, mix it, layer it and flaunt it! Then you’ll be ‘gold’ to go!
