What Colors Work For You?

The easiest way to figure out what color is best for you is the Silver or Gold test!

  • A mirror (not those compact ones)
  • Two jewelry pieces -- the one in silver and the other one in gold
  • Natural lighting
Simply hold a necklace (or whatever piece of jewelry you have) and place it against your face.
Neutral lighting is very important to really get the results
Then you must observe. Ask yourself these questions while observing the jewelry against your face:
Do you look healthier?
Or does the metal make you look bland?
Does the metal create or accentuate dark eye circles?
Does it make your teeth look yellowish?
Notice the difference each metal make to your face?

If it is Gold then you have warm colors

Below are significant colors that should be in your closet:
  • Muted and warm colors such as camel, beige, bronze, mocha's and charcoal gray
  • Exotic mango orange, softer tones of peach and gold are
  • Earthy greens like lime, grass, celery, olive, moss and jade

If it is Silver than you have cooler colors
  • Pure, crispy white looks magnificent on your cool-toned skin.
  • You look gorgeous with blue-toned reds like true red.
  • Almost every hue of the ocean goes perfectly with your complexion (except for warmer shades like bright navy blue, anything warm).
  • Light as we as charcoal gray looks terrific on your skin.


If it is both Gold and Silver than you can wear any color you want!

I did it myself!


Miss Fashionista fits in the warm color pallet! Gold looks best on me!
