Gold Mine




A sudden, new fancy has taken a strong hold of me as of late: gold. So I thought it would be fitting to create a small celebration of the precious metal that has transfixed me so much all of a sudden, among other things.

From my treasured bottle of Chanel Facettes D'Or Gold Fiction nail polish to shimmering golden eye makeup, I can't get enough of it. Gold jewelry is now in abundance in my wardrobe. Gold accents accompany every outfit -- because a little pop of it here and there goes such a long way and so prettily!

I guess it represents warmth to me, and decadence and richness. As for silver? I avoid it like the plague. It's so cold, so tinny in comparison with a buttery gold ring or belt clasp. However, I am very cautious with metallic cloths -- too eighties for my liking.

Besides the gamut of jewelry, makeup, and accessories, how else do you think you could incorporate gold into your trousseau?
