Can you combine gold and silver jewelry?

That question is one we are often asked at Viclara, and the short answer is: yes – and actually much more than that. The combination of gold and silver is not only allowed, it is a stylish and modern approach to jewelry styling. It’s a way to express personality and boldness – with both contrast and character.

It was once considered a styling mistake to wear both gold and silver at the same time. But today, both the fashion scene and the jewelry world have rejected the old styling rules and opened up for the personal trend mix, where mixed metals are both accepted and sought after.

Why is it a good idea to mix your gold and silver jewelry?

Mixing gold and silver jewelry adds depth to your look and a subtle contrast between the warm and the cool metal. This balanced difference creates an exciting and vibrant expression – exactly what mixed metals are all about.

By mixing your jewelry, you create the opportunity to showcase the imperfect and the personal – the very things that make your style uniquely yours. The contrast unfolds beautifully in everything from earrings and necklaces to bracelets and rings, creating a red thread throughout your overall look.

In a time when individuality weighs heavily in the world of fashion, a playful and experimental approach to jewelry styling is a natural way to make your mark.

How to mix gold and silver in a stylish way

Old rules have long been broken, but a few simple principles can help you get started with a balanced and personal mix:

1. Find a common design line

Choose jewelry that complements each other in shape and style. For example, do your pieces have soft organic curves? Then let this expression be present in both gold and silver. This creates cohesion and makes your styling harmonious rather than random.

2. Layering creates harmony

Layering is a popular and effective technique when you want to play with mixed metals. Try combining necklaces in different lengths, in both gold and silver. It creates structure, depth, and a modern expression.

3. Create a visual anchor with one statement piece

Select one piece of jewelry that stands out – it could be a chunky ring, voluminous earrings, or an eye-catching necklace. Use this as the center of your look, and let your other jewelry support the overall expression.

4. Make room for detail

When your jewelry plays with contrasts, it can be striking to keep your clothing in neutral tones and simple silhouettes. This lets your accessories take center stage and creates a style where the mix is the defining element.
