Inspired by: Gold Accents

{images via}
I know I've been talking about this for what seems like forever, but we are FINALLY getting ready to pack things up and start on our renovation. I am scouring Pinterest like it's my job for inspiration to help give our designer an idea of the direction we want to go in. Clearly I'm a little crazy over gold accents. My husband is not so on board with this idea but I just love it! I'm thinking if we just do gold hardware in the powder room then it won't be too overpowering.
So what are your thoughts on gold accents? Timeless or just a trend?
