Though many fashion experts stand by the ‘skin tone’ rule
when it comes to gold or silver colour choices, I throw caution to the wind and
wear it all! Though it may sound strange, I don’t mind if a piece of clothing,
nail colour or shadow doesn’t suit me, as long as it makes me feel pretty and
happy. Rose gold definitely fits that bill, and these recent additions can
attest to my love for the middle of the road shade.

I see rose gold as a more modern and chic metal when
compared to silver (or white gold) and the traditional yellow gold. Working in
the retail jewellery sector, I often advise people on what styles look good and
what suits them. I always say, go with your gut, and customers are always
content with a new piece of jewellery if it makes them feel the warm and
fuzzies. This rose gold phone case from Portmans gives me the warm and fuzzies,
no doubt!
I didn’t hesitate to buy the new Australis nail polish in Rose
Tattoo when I saw it land in my local Priceline (side note: check out the
new polish range, they are all ace!) This glittery Rose Gold topcoat from Portmans
was stashed inside my stocking on Christmas morning, and the two were totally
made for one another. I love the way the rose gold glitter flakes sit atop the
metallic rose gold, and next time I am going to try it out the glitter with a nude
underneath to let it really stand out. I have worn the Australis shade by itself as a mani,
and absolutely loved it.
What metal tones do you gravitate towards? I’d love to know
who wears what!
*I purchased the Australis shade myself, and as stated the
Portman’s polish was a gift.
I almost bought that Australis nail polish today. There's an Orly rose gold colour that I've seen on YouTube gurus. Must find it somehow! Love the NOTD. x
ReplyDeleteThat looks beautiful on you!
ReplyDeleteMy engagement ring is gold, and even though most of my jewellery is silver, I prefer the way gold looks on me. I prefer gold polish but the magpie in me appreciates that silver polish (in my experience) tends to look more *sparkly* because it stands out more against my skin.
I actually think this really suits you!
ReplyDeleteThat's a gorgeous polish! Very glitzy and glam!
ReplyDeleteI love rose gold! And I love your pick for rose gold polish - very cute and dainty!
ReplyDeleteI love rose gold but never found the right polish. I love this combo! I tend to do silver more though.
ReplyDeleteI am loving the rose gold! I find I only wear yellow or white gold mainly - although my Pandora rings are mixed metals really (silver being the main one)... I found Rose Tattoo kind of went blotchy on my fingernails? Pretty though!
ReplyDeleteI love rose golds too! I think they're so fresh and pretty. It's actually one of my fave eyeshadow shades too! Love the polish on you!
ReplyDeleteI wear a lot of yellow golds but love rose and white gold too! I've always dreamt of owning a classic Cartier 3-gold Trinity ring...
ReplyDeleteThis combo is just perfect! Must recreate this mani... :DD
