Once upon a time, “fashion rules” told us never to mix gold and silver. Thankfully, those days are over — and the new rule is simple: If you love it, wear it.
At Bidayamist, we believe mixed metals are not only stylish but also practical. They make your jewellery more versatile and let you wear your favourite pieces together, instead of choosing between them. Here’s how to master the art.
1. Pick a Dominant Metal
When mixing, start with one metal as your base tone. This keeps the look cohesive, even if you add others.
- Example: Start with gold as your base, then add pops of silver and rose gold.

2. Use a Statement Piece to Anchor the Look
A chunky bracelet, bold ring, or layered chain can serve as the “centerpiece,” letting the mixed tones feel intentional.

3. Layer Different Lengths & Textures
Mixing metals works best when you add visual variety:
- Pair a smooth gold chain with a textured silver rope chain.
- Add rose gold studs to balance warm and cool tones.

4. Keep Balance Across Your Outfit
Spread the metals across your look so one area doesn’t feel heavy.
- If your necklace is mostly gold, add silver rings or a rose gold bracelet.
Image Idea:
Model with a gold necklace, silver hoop earrings, and a rose gold bangle.
5. Let Personality Lead
The best mixed-metal looks are personal, not “perfect.” Feel free to combine vintage silver, modern gold, and sentimental charms — it tells your story.
✨ Final Thought:
Mixing metals isn’t breaking the rules — it’s rewriting them. With the right balance, you can create a jewellery style that’s fresh, flexible, and uniquely yours. At Bidayamist, our collections are designed to layer beautifully, no matter your favourite mix.
