Clients are often wary of trends, until we let them into the secret of keeping your look up to date without being a slave to fashion which is to add a few trend led items to your existing wardrobe. In this blog SYW shows you how with metallic which remains a trend for Summer 2015. We have gone for this gorgeous fluid vest from Reiss, in a great soft metallic bronze.

We have hardly stopped wearing ours since it made it into our wardrobe. Think metallic is only for evening dressing? Think again. The colour and cut of this vest make it very versatile. Here’s how to make it work.

Take one metallic vest and pair it with……..

…….Silk look joggers, sleeveless jacket, Bright handbag, wedge trainers or heels (if you prefer) – Wearing this way kills two trends with one stone, as it hits the utility trend too. Perfect for slouchy Sunday brunches, weekday errands or even the school run.

……..Ribbon pleat skirt, white jacket, tonal handbag with metallic detail and either nude Mary Janes or lizard effect heels.  Makes a lovely outfit for a wedding, afternoon tea or a day at the polo. Swap out the bag for a lady like B&W number and keep the Mary Janes and you have a summer office uniform.

……..Leather trousers, smart white jacket, add colour with a pattern scarf and select pair of demure Mary Janes – you are all set for smart casual day at the office. Come quitting time swap out the Mary Janes for some killer heels – seamlessly takes you from desk to drinks.
