It's official: Gabrielle Union marks gold accents this season's must-have desk accessory
Master the art of gold accenting the Gabrielle Union-approved way – here's how

As we inch closer to almost an entire calendar year of working at home, we've started approaching our home decor with as much precision and thought as we previously did our wardrobes. And our home offices or work spaces are getting the most attention, naturally.
Take Gabrielle Union, for example. The 48-year-old presented a compelling case for accenting a study with a gold lamp in a recent Instagram post. She's (un)officially deemed it this season's must-have desk accessory – and we're taking note.
