Contemporary Jewelry and Fashion Go Bold in Black and Gold

Vandy fans will be happy to hear about the striking combination we’re seeing in fashion of black and gold. This classic combo looks richly elegant and can be dressed up or down. Try wearing your favorite little black dress with gold heels and a gold clutch for a look that has instant sophistication. Try using black as your outfit back drop and using different textures in gold accessories to create interest in the look, such as a gold sequin purse or a pair of gold heels with a satin finish or a reptile print (snake skin is very of-the-moment). Metallic tops are also going to be big for fall, so you could also make this trend a bit more casual by pairing a gold top and black skinny pants, then layer a patterned cardigan over the top and pair it with black or gold ballet flats for a look that Audrey Hepburn would be jealous of! And black and gold jewelry is the epitome of rich and refined fashion. Onyx is a fairly affordable stone and a great way to add a black and gold combination to your ensemble, so try pieces like a Gold Onyx Ring, Gold Onyx Bracelet or Gold Onyx Earrings to create simple elegance in your fashion statement. We love these luxurious bold black and gold pieces:
