Bold yellow gold jewelry is a trend for Spring and Summer.  So if you have some that have been sitting in a box, now is the time to dust them off and make use of them. I love a bold gold earring and was very sad when I lost one of my favorite sets because it is such a classic shape and the perfect size to be impactful but worn everyday. My clever mother suggested that I have the remaining earring made into a necklace which I did and I love it. Check out the selection of gorgeous Verdura ear clips for inspiration. There are some great costume options. I’ve heard many women say that even pricier costume jewelry turns color too quickly and so they would prefer one nice real piece versus several of costume. Maybe less (of real) is more?
