The first rule, don’t be shy about wearing metallics during the day; this trend is not reserved for the evening. In fact, adding a little bit of metallic glamour to your daily wardrobe is an instant mood pleaser and a great way to liven up your day-to-day style. Just follow these golden rules and you can’t go wrong.
1. Don’t overdo it:
Wearing one piece of metallic in your outfit prevents this look from being over the top during the day. A matte finish on a metallic outfit can soften the look for daytime wear; mixing metallic with neutral shades is a fail safe way for carrying off this look with serious poise. Silver metallics are better suited with black and grey, while copper or gold shades work better with pink and cream.
2. Avoid looking like a superhero:
If you are wearing this trend for a night out then a metallic dress with killer heels will look fab, but keep the accessories simple. Nothing too tight or short is the key to carrying off this trend. Keep it chic and classy alongside minimalistic accessories such as a simple cuff on each arm.
3. Less is more:
If you are unsure about wearing metallics then accessories are a great way to break this look gently into your wardrobe. Adding a metallic belt or bejewelled clutch bag to your outfit can really make this look work. Don’t forget a statement pair of metallic shoes can also be worked into any outfit for an instant metallic hit.
There is nothing scary about metallics, just remember less is more and with these guide lines the C3PO look can definitely be laid to rest.
