Metallics
Think of this post as your holiday party crash course.
It’s officially that time of year, tis’ the season to spin in sparkly skirts and dance the night away.
Holidays arrive with endless party invites, and the perfect excuse to get dolled up. Shiny shoes, statement jewels, a bold lip… the more metallics the merrier!
Whether you have a holiday happy-hour, a formal dinner affair, or a family gathering, this season is all about infinite shine. With so many acceptable options to choose from, it can be hard to decide what to wear. From silver standout dresses to glittering separates and metallic sneakers – they all seem to be making a case for evening attire.
Like anything else, it’s about knowing what works best for you, when aiming to attract that cosmic energy.
This liquid silver skit from Anthropolgie is all dazzle and softness. Is anything more festive than sparkle and shine!? I’ve been after a metallic pleated skirt for a while now, and fell in love with this one because the material is fluid and reflective, so no need to worry about leaving a trail of glitter or sequins. It runs a little big, so size down, but it’s sooooo fab! Lightweight, comfortable, and flattering. Dressy to casual - you can always skip the strappy heel and add a chunky boot (perhaps in white!) for a fresh combo that equals that laid back holiday look.
Layer on space-age silver accents with pieces like this pearl encased clutch and luxurious white beaded texture necklace from Stella & Dot. This statement necklace has four shades of stones that look stellar set against, black, grey, white or other neutrals. (I could even see it paired with blush or mint!)
As for keeping warm, electrify the night in a pristine white coat that captures the essence of the first snow of the season. There’s something magic about this time of year that infuses the air and beckons you closer, inviting you to snuggle up inside a warm, cozy jacket and a cheeky knit cap in flawless frosty fashion.
So, cozy up in minerals and metallics, mimicking the night sky’s flashes of light and evidence of distant stars. Don’t forget to look up and simply be captivated by the sparkling, white flakes as they flutter and fall kissing lashes and dusting the earth in a glitter all her own.
