<\/p>\nFor the past few years, jewellery has leaned pretty minimal. Small studs, fine chains, simple pieces that could be layered together without thinking too much about it.<\/p>\n
This fall, things are getting bigger. Designers are putting chunky gold chains, oversized earrings and wide cuffs back in the spotlight. Saint Laurent, Givenchy and Chanel have all shown bold gold pieces in their fall collections, and we\u2019re starting to see the same look outside the runway too.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a good reminder that jewellery trends tend to come back around. And sometimes, the pieces that have been sitting in the back of your jewellery box for years are suddenly the pieces everyone wants to wear again.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The big thing right now is yellow gold, especially pieces with some weight to them.<\/p>\n
Oversized earrings are everywhere too. Once the weather cools down, and you\u2019re wearing coats, scarves and higher necklines, earrings are one of the few pieces of jewellery that still really stand out.<\/p>\n
Then there are the chains. Not the fine, layered necklaces that were everywhere a few years ago. This time, it\u2019s thicker chains that are meant to be worn on their own. A chunky gold chain can do most of the work without needing much else.<\/p>\n
Gold cuffs and wider bangles are back too. They look especially good with heavier sweaters, jackets and coats that come with the season.<\/p>\n
The overall look is simple: bigger pieces, stronger shapes and a lot more yellow gold.<\/p>\n

White gold had a long run and, while it\u2019s still popular, yellow gold has clearly started to make its way back. There\u2019s a difference between the two that\u2019s worth knowing if you have jewellery, old or new, at home.<\/p>\n
White gold is made by mixing gold with other metals, and it\u2019s usually coated with rhodium to give it that bright, white finish. Yellow gold is made with gold and other metals too, but it keeps the warmer colour we normally associate with gold.<\/p>\n
When it comes to the value of a piece, though, the colour isn\u2019t what matters most. Karat tells you how much gold is in the piece and the weight tells you how much gold there is. Those are two important factors when jewellery is being evaluated, whether it\u2019s yellow gold, white gold or another gold alloy.<\/p>\n
So if you have an old yellow gold necklace or bracelet tucked away somewhere, now might be a good time to take another look at it. It\u2019s back in style, and it might be worth more than you think.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s another side to this trend: jewellery with a bit of history to it.<\/p>\n
Antique finishes and vintage-inspired pieces are part of the look too. The jewellery feels less polished and more personal, whether the piece is genuinely old or simply made to look that way.<\/p>\n
