GLOW-GETTER


Metallic trend certainly made an impact with shiny textures and iridescent fabrics being a hit on the runway. If you gravitate towards anything of the shimmery persuasion, congrats Fall 2019 is your season. Congratulations on adding a shimmering little sequin something to your wardrobe! Now it's time to step outside and get noticed. But how much sparkle is too much?What are the rules for how to wear sequins? And more importantly, because life should be fun- especially when wearing sequins- how do you break those rules?.

Metallic pieces can be tricky to wear for work because they are loud and feel very "out there" . However if you select the right colours it can look professional, for example if you wear darker hues/shades like a pleated midnight blue skirt with light shimmer, then it feels more elevated already. If you want to add a little sparkle to your outfit then you can wear a glittery metallic jacket on your shoulders or you can use sparkly accents to help direct the eye where you want it to go. Like a shiny, beaded waistband or belt to emphasise curves. You can also amp up a sleek all- black outfit with shiny metallic shoes or a mirrored clutch. Jewellery is by far the easiest way to add sparkle to any look. Draw attention to your face with a shiny metallic necklace or big, glittering earrings.

There are no restrictions for weekend party outfits. My outfit is weekend party ready because it combines a relaxed black metallic body suits with snug fit flared leg trouser and a strappy sequin midi dress. If you have metallic sneakers , shiny pants, or a jacket with edgy metallic details , the weekend is the best time to go out in those item. Whether you are looking for the last minute party saviour, muted, brushed and lacquered metallics are what to wear right now. Are you ready to rock metallic for fall?.
