Holiday Wishlist: Dazzling Black & Gold

Black and gold are a color combination that can do no wrong. It is classy, sophisticated and everything about it represents luxury. Black and gold are also the perfect color scheme for this up-coming holiday season. From looks that we've spotted on the runway to street style inspiration from around the world, find out how you too can incorporate these two holiday colors into a chic wishlist to die for.

The trick to pulling of black and gold for the holiday season is to keep it within your accessories. The light shimmer of the gold will pop even more when it is only restricted to certain aspects of your outfit, such as your shoes and handbag, while the black will help tie your overall look together. Upgrade your standard all-black look with accentuated gold flecks in your nails or necklace, for example. Remember, though, to keep the color scheme to a minimum of two items, for a holiday look that's ready to dazzle the crowds!
