Metallic is a sure trend for this fall and winter; it was seen all over the runways in fall/winter collections presented months ago. But, there are some summery pieces you can start to mix into your current wardrobe and wear them into the fall with layers.

When you begin to search for the right metallic, look for pieces that are actually metallic, not just shiny. Shiny material does look cheap and old fashioned. Metallic thread and fabric is not overly loud and actually quite wearable- even in the day!
Paul & Joe Miette Smock Top, $197.50 from theOutNet.com
Metallic pieces should be a simple silhouette to keep from looking to busy and over the top. Don't wear metallic from head to toe; one metallic piece is enough to make a statement. If you are dying to wear a metallic top and metallic shoes, keep your pants subdued (black skinny pants, dark wash denim). Busy, large patterns can also be overwhelming and bring you into the realm of tapestry. Simplicity is the key.
