Yes. Try a pair of mixed-metal earrings, or wear a gold chain with a silver ring. Choose a mix you enjoy.

Does this mean I should stop wearing my wedding ring?

No. Keep wearing a ring you love. A color suggestion is not a rule about meaningful jewelry.

What if I like gold but silver looks better?

Wear the gold if you enjoy it. You can also try smaller pieces, a brushed finish or a mix of both metals.

Silver suits you: what that means, and how to wear it

Your answers lean cool, so silver is a useful place to start. Try silver hoops with a blue blouse or gray knit. Pewter offers a darker, softer-looking choice.

Compare a bright polished piece with a brushed one. Notice which you prefer beside your face and with your clothes. Gold can still have a place in your jewelry box.

The metal names you will see in this range:

Soft Silver
Platinum
White Gold
Silver
Pewter
Brushed Silver
Smoky Rose Gold
Gunmetal
Polished Silver
Chrome

What your answer means

Gold: try yellow gold, bronze or copper. Explore wearing gold.

Silver: try silver, platinum-colored pieces or pewter. Explore wearing silver.

Both: compare finishes or mix the metals. Explore wearing both.

A woman holding a gold hoop by her jaw while a silver hoop waits on the dresser. — Try one piece near your face in soft daylight. Swap it for the other without moving. Look at the whole face as well as the jewelry.

Keep the jewelry you love.

The result gives you something to try. It does not decide what you are allowed to wear. A favorite ring, a gift or a pair of earrings can matter more than a color suggestion.

This short quiz cannot see your face. Try the suggestion with your own jewelry and clothes. You may prefer a small gold hoop, a large silver one, or a mix of both.
