Fashion always comes full circle, and in 2025, yellow gold is once again taking center stage. A timeless classic, yellow gold jewelry continues to shine through changing trends, offering both elegance and lasting value. Long considered a smart investment, it’s now one of the top 2025 jewelry trends. From everyday wear to statement pieces, we’re sharing our favorite ways to style yellow gold with DeVons picks.
Where it’s Been
Yellow gold jewelry has symbolized power, divinity and wealth since ancient times. Pharaohs, royalty and priests wore it in civilizations like Egypt and Mesopotamia, and across Europe during the Middle Ages.
Where it is Today
Yellow gold remains a timeless choice in jewelry, blending tradition with modern fashion trends that favor bold, minimalist and vintage-inspired pieces. Notable pieces include Hailey Bieber’s yellow gold engagement ring, Zendaya’s wide collection of yellow gold jewelry and Meghan Markle’s yellow gold engagement ring and vintage-inspired pieces.
2025 Women’s Yellow Gold Trends
18K Yellow Gold Contemporary Diamond Station Choker Necklace
Choker necklaces are popular with celebrities like Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Kendall Jenner and Hailey Bieber. Although contemporary in style, this Gabriel necklace is regal in bearing. It’s made of 18K yellow gold and has a total diamond weight of 4.51 CT.
14K Yellow Gold 1 ½ CT Solitaire Pendant
Wearing a minimalistic pendant is a popular trend with celebrities like Taylor Swift and Jenna Bush Hager. This oval lab-grown diamond pendant is simple, yet striking with a ½ CT diamond.
It’s also been popular to pair simple pendants with complementary pieces like this 14K 1.75 CT Yellow Gold Lab Grown Diamond Necklace. This simple gold chain features three round diamonds mounted separately along its length and would complement nearly any diamond pendant beautifully. You also might add gemstone pieces for some gorgeous color, like this 10K Lab Grown Diamond and Sapphire Halo Pendant Necklace.
18K Yellow Gold Diamond Tennis Bracelet
Incredibly versatile, tennis bracelets are suitable for both formal and casual occasions and have been seen on a wide variety of celebrities, including Meghan Markle, Hailey Bieber and Jennifer Lopez. This particular example has a delicate and striking design with a scattering of diamonds set in 18K yellow gold and a total diamond weight of 7.17 CT.
18K Yellow Gold Diamond Bangle Bracelet
A single bangle bracelet has been seen on Sarah Jessica Parker and Angelina Jolie, while stacked bangle bracelets are a well-known favorite of Zendaya and Kylie Jenner. Suitable to wear alone or with other bangles, this 18K yellow gold bracelet is simple in design and features a sleek row of 4.75 CT diamonds along the middle.
The current stacked trend also involves mixing and matching several styles of these distinctive bangle bracelets. That diamond bangle would look lovely worn with this 14K Yellow Gold Graduating Diamond Station Bangle and this 14K Yellow Gold Diamond Baguette Station Bangle Bracelet.
14K Yellow Gold French Pavé 80mm Round Inside Out Diamond Hoop Earrings
Hoop earrings are a style that has more than stood the test of time and been a favorite of many celebrities, particularly Jennifer Lopez, Hailey Bieber and Rihanna. These 14K Yellow Gold French pavé earrings are a modern take on the design with a simple, yet radiant row of 3.6 CT of diamonds gracing the outer and inner edges.
18K Yellow Gold Diamond Easy Stackable Ladies Ring
Stackable rings are very popular, allowing the wearer to incorporate multiple styles and mixed metals to reflect their personal style. Priyanka Chopra frequently adds delicate diamond bands and statement rings, while Jennifer Garner has been known to wear multiple eternity bands to represent her children.
A mix of delicate bands and chunky statement rings is usually the preferred look. This particular stackable ring is a modern take on a classic solitaire emerald-cut diamond ring, stacking four rings with 2 CT of diamonds in a stunning yet elegant design.
14K Yellow Gold Wide Band Pavé Diamond Ring
The pavé setting style uses smaller diamonds laid close together to resemble a paved, or cobblestone street. Kate Middleton’s engagement ring features pavé settings, as does Lady Gaga’s engagement ring, which features a large pink stone surrounded by pavé-set white diamonds.
Amal Clooney and Ariana Grande have also been seen wearing pavé-style rings, like this pavé diamond ring. It features five rows of 1.85 CT of diamonds set in 14K yellow gold. The effect is beautifully elegant in a contoured shape that perfectly flatters a lady’s finger.
Men’s Yellow Gold Ring Trends
Harry Styles and Timotheé Chalamat are both known for wearing a wide variety of rings, including cocktail rings and simple gold bands. This ¼ CT Diamond 10kt Yellow Gold Men’s Band features a row of smaller diamonds, while this 3/8 CT Diamond 10kt Gold Men’s Band has diamonds staggered along the band.
