How do you wear metallics during the day?
Whoever said you can’t wear metallics in the daytime, never quite understood the magic of metallic clothing. Adding a little festive flair to an otherwise plain outfit is the easiest & most fun way to extend the wear of your metallic clothing. We’ve found that the best way to incorporate metallics into your daywear is to treat them as you would a neutral, afterall, metallics actually pair super well with other colours. Never have we loved a colour combo more than silver metallic with black, although let’s be honest, gold paired with camel or chocolate brown runs it a close second. Approaching your metallics as you would your normal day to day wear is the easiest way to become more comfortable in them. We’re thinking a statement pair of silver trousers paired with a laid back white tee, black blazer and sneakers, a key outfit for any fashion lover! Fancy something a little well…fancier? A shimmering metallic skirt is a wonderful base for any type of outfit. Grab your go-to metallic skirt and layer over a pair of tights, then select a nice high-neck top and your favourite boots (which can easily be switched out with a pair of high heels for an instant day to night outfit shift) and you’ve got yourself an excellent daytime (with definite night time potential) metallic look! Alternatively, a metallic top worn with a pair of jeans and a fluffy winter coat will have you shining bright all day long!
What looks good with metallics?
The better question would be, what doesn’t look good with metallics? For daytime we’re loving metallics with just about everything, from sweater and metallic trousers combos, to metallic blouses and blazers, a metallic dress paired with tights and a fluffy gilet, the options to dress up your daytime outfit with a little metallic twist are endless! For nighttime you genuinely cannot go wrong with a metallic dress and heels, the ultimate in festive season dressing! Amp up the metallics with earth-shatteringly stunning Universe party jewellery, and elevate the whole vibe with metallic chrome nails and out-of-this world, reflective metals eye makeup. This is party dressing to the extreme and we could not be more excited about it!
