Gold jewellery is classic and understated. I feel that is compliments my skin tone and warms my complexion and I also love styling black and gold together; call me a magpie if you wish. When it comes to completing your outfits, as a lover of minimal style, it is the finishing touches that complete a look. This is where jewellery comes in. I believe in investing in your gold jewellery collection to add a touch of personality and character to your outfits. Jewellery is also such a personable thing; buying as a gift for a loved one is always a great present idea that can be kept and cherished forever. My husband James bought me a gold signet ring last Christmas with his, mine and our new born son’s initials on it. Something that I will wear for the rest of my days!

Below I am sharing my top five classic gold jewellery pieces from Blue Nile that you can add to your forever wardrobe.
