How to Style your Black & Gold Homecoming Look
With a black and gold dress, your accessories can either enhance the glamour or let the dress do all the talking. Gold jewelry is an easy choice, especially with heavily embellished styles. Try statement earrings with a hair updo. Or, keep the accessories sleek and delicate pieces if your dress already has a lot of sparkle.
For shoes, metallic gold, black, or neutral heels can all work beautifully. If your dress has a lot of gold detailing, matching your shoes to the gold tones can create a cohesive head-to-toe look.
When it comes to hair and makeup, think about the overall vibe you're going for. Soft waves create a romantic finish, while a sleek ponytail or polished updo can make a modern and dramatic dress feel even more modern. A glowing complexion, defined eyes, and a neutral or rosy lip can complement the warm tones of gold without competing with the dress.
