Move Over, Yellow Gold—This Nostalgic Y2K Jewellery Trend Is Making A Comeback

Opulent gold has reigned supreme for years on the runway and on social media alike, but the early aughts’ favourite metal is making a comeback. Dripping in silver is cool again thanks to modern and minimalist designs by homegrown brands like Biko, Jenny Bird and Nina Janvier. (Don't worry, yellow gold is here to stay and plays well with silver for a mixed metal moment.) Not sure where to start? Opt for chunky, sculptural pieces that make a statement to put the finishing touches to your festive looks. Below, we've rounded up shiny new pieces from Canadian brands to add to your collection.
