Hello my beauties and welcome to Looks By Li! I
hope you are all having a wonderful day. I wanted to delve into some of the
hottest trends currently overtaking the Spring season in fashion this year.
More and more I am seeing metallic silver and gold prints on every type of fabrics
you can imagine accompanied by white sneakers, not always together, but also
separately. Though these aren’t your typical colors for Spring they still bring
out a sort of transitional style from fall into a more colorful season.
It seems metallic fabrics are making their way to all types of
clothing and accessories so don’t worry about strutting those flashy colors
till late at night, this Spring it’s all about the metallic and white sneakers
look. I want to show you some fun and easy ways to combine these metallic
fabrics and white sneakers into looks together or separate if you desire.
If someone would have told me last year that metallic knits would be
topping everyone’s fall shopping list, I would have told them they had flown
off their rocker. But this trend has definitely seen an evolution and mature
rise since the days of sequin tops and skirts on our way from the office to
cocktail hour. See how you can style this trend for work, date nights,
weekends, or pretty much every style mood of the season.
For the Trendsetter:
I am a huge fan of mixing trends together so I took these very popular
looks and combined them into one look. One of the most popular white sneaker
looks at the moment is the iconic Adidas
Superstars and pairing them with just about any look. I went with my White Converse Classic Chuck Taylor’s
and paired them with this metallic infused grey sweater top from ZARA and black leggings from Forever21 to balance the contrast of bright
fabrics with a more demure hue. I would have loved to also pair the look with a
metallic handbag, but since I am currently in the market for one, my Louis Vuitton Alma BB in Damier Ebene
had to do the trick.
For the Working
Hipster:
Blazers can elevate a look to business casual in one fail
swoop. You could easily wear a metallic blazer
with a white or black boyfriend shirt and jeans. But for this look we went with
the metallic pants, white boyfriend top and black blazer paired and topped off with black sandals. Although I would substitute the sandals for black
Oxfords or Loafers. This compete look can be found at Forever 21.
The New Bohemian:
I absolutely love the boho look! I think it can be very
dressy and causal all at the same time. For this look, though it is not
pictured, I would pair this metallic
boho style dress with a medium wash
jean jacket and black heels to
make the look casual. For a more dressy and night out alternative substitute
the jean jacket for a black mid-length
blazer or black solid print kimono.
This complete look can be found at Forever 21.
Lastly, I want to close by saying I was not sponsored to do
this and I happen to simply love forever 21 for trendy, affordable fashion
which is why I used a lot of their pieces! I hope I have inspired
you to incorporate more metallic accents into your style and till next time,
stay chic everyone!
