Is Mixed Metals A Trend Or A Timeless Style?
We have seen the mixed metals jewelry look take off in 2024, so you may be wondering if it's just a trend like the mob wife aesthetic or coquette style, or if mixed metals will continue to dominate the jewelry space. We are here to tell you that, while it is very popular in today's world, it will continue to be a timeless style moving forward. This means you should invest in both silver and gold to wear on their own and mix together depending on the look you are wanting to achieve.
Whether you are a seasoned fashionista, or newer to exploring your style, these tips and tricks will help you perfect your mixed metals jewelry look!
Create Balance When Mixing Metals
Achieving balance is key when mixing metals. Picture this: you're wearing silver earrings, gold necklaces, and silver rings. It might end up looking a bit chunky and uneven, right? Instead, incorporate both metals into your earring, necklace, and ring combinations. This way, each piece complements the others, creating a cohesive and balanced style.
Keep It Consistent
If you're new to the world of mixed metal jewelry, a good beginner tip is to stay consistent with your jewelry types. What do I mean by this? Well, if you're interested in experimenting with mixed metals, stick to a specific jewelry type, such as bracelets or earrings, and mix different colored metals or you could go for similar dainty designs within each jewelry category. This approach keeps your look cohesive and avoids overwhelming your style with contrasting styles. Ultimately, creating an effortlessly chic vibe all the It girls on your Pinterest boards exude and this style of mixed metals with dainty pieces is the perfect combination for your everyday look!
Reach For Mixed Metal Styles
An effortless way to achieve a mixed metal aesthetic with your gold or silver pieces is to invest in jewelry that already incorporates multiple metals. This eliminates the guesswork of figuring out which styles complement each other. Simply grab your mixed metal piece and pair it with similar designs in your metal of choice for a cohesive look.

Experiment with Layering
If you are more confident in your style choices, don't be afraid to get creative with layering when mixing metals. Try stacking different lengths of necklaces in varying metals for an eye-catching effect. We always suggest sticking to odd numbers when deciding how many pieces to add to your stack, so if you wanted a mixed metal necklace stack, grab a gold choker, silver chain, and top it off with a gold pendent necklace. You could also layer multiple bracelets of contrasting metals for a dynamic wrist stack that grabs the attention of a room. Experimenting with layering allows you to showcase your personal style and add depth to your look.
Mix Textures for Added Interest
If you are looking for ways to further enhance your stack, in addition to mixing metals, consider incorporating different textures into your jewelry collection to create more of a statement. Pair smooth, polished pieces with ridged or hammered designs to create contrast and dimension. Mixing textures adds a tactile element to your style, making it even more engaging and attention grabbing.
Play with Proportions
When mixing metals, don't forget to consider proportions. Balance dainty pieces with bolder ones to create a dynamic yet harmonious look. Some may stray away from layering bold statement pieces with other styles, since the statement piece is already an eye catching piece. However, this is one of our favorite ways to create a stack, whether its an ear party, ring stack, or layered necklaces. For example, pair a statement gold necklace with dainty silver earrings, or stack chunky silver rings with slim gold eternity bands. Playing with different proportions adds depth and personality to your stack, allowing you to express your unique style with confidence.
So, there you have it! With these tips in mind, no matter your fashion status, you're ready to embrace your cool girl energy and mix metals like a pro. The last thing to remember is that confidence is key to rocking a mixed metal look whether you are running errands, grabbing coffee with your bestie, or hitting the town for a night out, let your personality shine through your jewelry choices! As we say at Adina Eden, when a women shines, she will rise to her full potential. Embrace your true style and be your own It girl, remember, it's all about finding the right balance and expressing your unique style with confidence. Happy styling!
