ARE YOU A GOLD OR A SILVER PERSON?
How many times have you heard this question? Or better yet, how many times have people come to you and stated that you are a gold (or a silver) person? Many, right?
But what is a gold or silver person, anyways?
How do people know if they are one or the other?
Why is it important?
SO WHAT'S THE SECRET?
Apparently there is a way to KNOW what kind of person you are. You would think that you would have to come to this fortune-teller-like woman and she sits you on a stool while whispering foreign words and waving her arms around your head, wouldn't you? You wouldn't? OK…so it's just me with my wild imagination...ok then. Picture my surprise when I've learned that in fact, it is based on our anatomy. Yes, you heard right!
So here is the secret, the key is in your veins! Look at your wrist veins carefully. Now, they can be seen through your skin as either blue or green. Cool ha?!Ok, concentrate, we are to figure out what kind of person you are, silver or gold.
WELL? BLUE VEINS OR GREEN VEINS? THAT IS THE QUESTION
If you have blue veins (and burn easily in the sun) you are categorized as a cool skin undertone person and drum roll…directed to wear silver.
If you have green veins (and tan well) you are categorized as a warm skin undertone person and drum roll…directed to wear gold.
If your veins appear as a bit of both blue and green, then you are neutral and can wear both silver and gold, Ta Da!.
Of course hair color, eye color, your make-up and the color of the clothes you are wearing are also factors that should be considered too.
SO RULES? REALLY?
You could go by these rules, sure. However, it is much more fun to play with the rules or better yet, decide you need NO rules at all. That is what's fun about fashion, you can totally do whatever works for you. You could go with silver one day and the next with gold. Why? No reason, it could be based simply on how you felt at a certain point in time. Not to mention that jewelry is much more than just metals. Jewelry involves feelings too. Sometimes the piece has a sentimental value of some sort, sometimes the piece generates some sort of good vibe and sometimes wearing a piece makes us confident, makes us SHINE! How so? Simple! Our inner self projects to our outer self and when we feel we are confident and radiant - we will project it too! Trust me, nobody is going to look at your veins and say "Wow, you really pulled it off here the way you matched the metals to your undertone!".
CELEBRATE YOURSELF!
Feel free to mix and match metals as you please! You can even mix gold and silver in the SAME piece of jewelry – I've done it, it is very refreshing. Plus, keep in mind that it is fashion, your fashion, YOUT STYLE! and you can change it whenever you see fit. Just let your style lead you in choosing the earrings, the necklaces, the bracelets and rings that you find exciting.
CELEBRATE YOURSELF TO THE FULLEST AND LET THE JEWELRY EXPRESS WHO YOU ARE !
Wear with love
