Yellow vs. White Gold: Which One’s for You?

How to Choose the Right Gold for Your Skin Tone

You don’t need a trend report or a stylist. Just look at your skin.

Step 1: Match the metal tone

Yellow gold jewelry looks best on warm tones. It enhances golden or olive undertones without competing.
White gold jewelry works for cool tones—clean, subtle, and flattering against fair or pinkish skin.
Neutral tones? You can go either way, based on vibe or outfit.

Step 2: Find your undertone

Look at the veins on your wrist:

• Greenish veins and skin that tans easily usually means a warm undertone.

• Blue or purple veins and skin that burns first? That’s a cool undertone.

• Somewhere in between? You’re probably neutral.

Step 3: Try it on for size

If yellow gold feels right:

• The Sienna Rose-Cut Heart Pendant Necklace

• The Zoe Organic Pear-Shape Loop Cuff

• The Gabriella Undulated Ring

If white gold hits the right note:

• The Token Ray Pendant

• The Viv Wide Huggie Earrings

• The Viv Open Cuff

Not ready to choose? Go with the Viv Triple Rolling Ring, which blends both tones in one piece.

Final word

There’s no right answer. The best gold is the one you actually want to wear.
