I’ve never really liked the look of gold, and not just the metal, but the color in general. This is especially the case with jewelry and cars. For example, I never understood the people who would pay extra to get their car logo in gold… you couldn’t pay me to drive around with that add-on, yet there are people who pay a premium for it. That look just doesn’t appeal to me; in fact I find it rather tacky.
While I will never get a gold-colored car, I’m not as averse when it comes to jewelry. For the most part I find gold jewelry to be too much for me, but occasionally I have come across a piece that I like. Still, I strongly gravitate towards the silver or platinum versions of a given item. Perhaps part of it is due to the warmth that is associated with that color – I guess I expect metal to be a cool thing, hence my attraction to silver, black, white, and clear – all very cool shades.
Just an observation about some of the quirky things that can drive a person’s decisions. I guess the nice thing is that I never have to worry about spending extra money to upgrade an item with gold!
