Make It Shine! Metallic Trends From Day to Night

The night scene has consistently dominated the metallic trend, but Spring 2012 shows that just a few alterations can make any metallic-inspired outfit become a day-to-night look. It’s as easy as 1,2,3…

1) Choose structured pieces. Metallic pieces are visually demanding, so to make your outfit appropriate for day and night, pick pieces that don’t feel overdone.

2) Combine metallics with neutrals and solids. To balance out the shine, complement your metallic pieces with soft and compact textures and colors.

3) Use one metallic central piece. Whether it’s the skirt, the pants, the jacket, etc, pick one item to be your metallic star. This will centralize the outfit’s focus and give you a polished look. The rest you can save for the other days of the week! Happy Friday everyone!
