December starts in just a few days, which means festive season is officially upon us – hooray! I absolutely love this time of year, from the great food (how am I going to get hold of mince pies in Canada?!), beautiful light displays and the smell of Christmas trees to snuggly nights in and, of course, festive fashion. Although I wear metallics all year round, I especially love the excuse to get my sparkle on at this time of year so I thought it was about time to share a silvery outfit, which I am absolutely loving.
I hope that this outfit shows those of you that are a little wary about wearing metallics outside an actual party, that it is totally possible to make glittery pieces work in your daytime wardrobe. I love the slouchy look of this outfit, which is exactly how to nail sparkly dressing during the day – no figure-hugging pieces, please, and my favourite knit helps to really dress down this incredible blue toned silver pleated dress that I bought a few years ago. How satisfying is it when you find something in your wardrobe that is so on trend?
I finished off the look with my snuggly, chunky black boots and some totally not weather appropriate fishnet tights – my legs were completely numb after this little outing on Saturday but I am just not into the “look” of proper tights right now. Oh and let’s not forget everyone’s favourite hat – the beret, which completes the outfit just perfectly.
How are you wearing metallics this season?
Décembre commencera dans quelques jours, qui veut dire que la saison festive a commencé officiellement – hurrah! J’aime trop cette période de l’année – de la bonne bouffe (comment je vais trouver des minces pies en Canada?!), des belles lumières, de l’odeur des sapins de Noël, des soirées cocoons à la maison et, bien-sûr, de la mode festive. Même si je porte des pièces lurexes pendant toute l’année, j’aime bien l’excuse d’en mettre encore plus autour de Noël. Alors, enfin c’est maintenant de vous montrer un premier look argenté dont je suis tellement fan.
Pour ceux qui ne sont pas sûr d’inclure des pièces métalliques dans vos placards de jour, j’espère que cette tenue vous montrera le contraire. J’aime bien la forme oversized de ce look, qui est exactement comment on met des scintillements pendant la journée – pas de pièces serrées et mon pull préféré aide à produire une tenue plus décontractée avec cette robe argentée plissée que j’ai acheté il y a quelques ans. Comment c’est tellement satisfaisant de retrouver une pièce super à la mode dans votre placard?
Pour finir le look, j’ai mis mes bottes super confortables et des bas résilles qui ne sont pas appropriés pour le temps qu’on a maintenant – à la fin de notre petite sortie samedi, mes jambes étaient complètement engourdies! Oh et on n’oublie pas le chapeau préféré de tout le monde – le beret, qui complète la tenue parfaitement.
Comment portez-vous des pièces brillantes cette saison?

Love this look so much! I am loving these style of skirts at the moment but don't think I'm tall enough to pull them off! X

Thanks my dear! It's actually a dress so win win as it makes for a great layering piece too! How tall are you? I'm 5 foot 6 so kind of average…XX

Didn't notice this was a dress! Love the idea of making a combo of metallic and knit. Very down to earth and looks great for day wear. May need to try this with a few pieces of my own.
