How to wear silver
Silver shines in accessories: shoes, purses, jewelry and watches. A silver dress looks great with black or silver shoes. With jeans and a white tee, a silver detail modernizes the look. It suits cool skin tones best.
Silver in home decor
Silver shows up in lamps, faucets, frames and metal furniture. Pair it with white, gray and blue for a modern or industrial style. With blue or green velvet it looks more elegant. Use it in details so the room doesn't feel too cold.
Silver in graphic and web design
On screen, silver is shown as light gray with gradients. It works for tech or modern luxury brands, on dark backgrounds with white text.
What to avoid
Avoid pairing it with very warm earth tones like mustard or camel if you want harmony, because the temperatures clash. With gold, only do it on purpose.
