How to wear: Metallic accessories

MANILA, Philippines – For glitz, glamor and shine, the metallic craze is still the ultimate way to bring instant sparkle to your outfit.

We’ve decided it’s time to embrace this lustrous trend. Whether it be gold, silver, sequins, glitter or the more daring holographic metallics that you add to your closet, we’re here to help.

Here are tips on how to pull off these accessories — avoid the gaudy, experience the glam:

1. Wear one piece at a time

If your heart is absolutely set on wearing a metallic dress or a statement bag, just stick to one piece. You will run the risk of resembling a disco ball if you combine too many metallics.

A metallic piece will shine brighter on its own.

2. Keep accessories minimal

To avoid overbearing your already great outfit, use metallics as an accent. The best thing about this show-stopping trend is that it packs a visual punch.

Pick accessories with metallic details as a subtle addition. If you opt for a gold sequined dress, choose understated accessories like gold nail polish or an embellished hair clip.

3. Pair with neutral colours

Keep your look clean by pairing the metallics with stark whites, pastels and nude hues. Incorporating metallics will be much easier and you will be well on your way to creating a look that’s both fresh and futuristic.
