Let’s be honest, shimmery fashion can be hard to pull off without looking like a disco ball. But when gorgeous slip dresses and neat pleated skirts came down the spring runways rendered in sophisticated metallics, we suddenly had the urge to incorporate shine into our everyday dressing. The key to making such head-turning pieces feel chic and not costumey? Let them do the talking by keeping the rest of your look simple.

Shine On

Daytime

Give a rose-gold cropped cami off-duty vibes by layering it over a white tee and vintage-inspired jeans. A tasseled bucket bag, dainty gold choker and sleek leather slip-ons keep things cool.

Evening

Team this yummy statement jacket with your favorite LBD and accessorize with lace sandals for a hint of feminine texture. Complete with a simple box clutch to temper the whole look.

Work

A metallic pleated midi skirt is modest in length yet stylish with its gleaming hue. Keep the look polished with a sleeveless turtleneck, leather tote and drop earrings. Brighten up the ensemble with yellow suede mules.
