……………………GUNMETAL is a color metal that I put in my “Special Color Category”…….It is becoming more and more important as women get accustomed to seeing it used more often, and are learning that there is a world out there beyond Gold and Silver…….Gunmetal has been called the “color with an EDGE”. Originally it was used mainly for Goth inspired jewelry where the color of the clothes was basically BLACK. The Goth wearers wanted jewelry that did not distract from their ominous dark look….GUNMETAL was the perfect answer…………..Since then, with Goth all but fading into oblivion except for some die hards, and when a designer occasionally resurrects it in some tongue in cheek way …..Gunmetal has moved on….and up in the Fashion World………. The look of Gunmetal is more subtle than Gold and Silver, and has taken on a new importance to create new looks and a new way of accessorizing. When the mood is for your accessories to be less bright and obvious….as the more traditional color metals are….using GM can have the effect of calm and tranquility….very Zen……………For me, Gunmetal has become an ESSENTIAL in a women jewelry wardrobe, and without it the possibilities of dressing in new and exciting ways has drastically diminished. Once you have tried Gunmetal jewelry you won’t ever want to be without it……………………….The shirt in the photos is new and looks perfect with the GUNMETAL DINGLE DANGLE NECKLACE…..it will be coming in July too……….sneak peeks to come………………………………………………………………………………enjoy……………….much Love……………………….Louis
This look with this shirt seals the deal for me. I was leaning toward the silver ’til I saw the gunmetal with this shirt. I couldn’t have too many of these shirts in my closet & this necklace is perfect with this color which I also have quite a bit of, including many of yours. You’re killin’ me here.:^)
Oh and what a lovely new shirt that is!
