Trend Alert: Metallica Jackets
I have a ton of Winter coats in my closet, but I've yet to own a metallica jacket. I admit, I was shy of the shiny, but seeing Gwyneth Paltrow in her silver Alice + Olivia coat and Christian Louboutin caged booties at the Valentino event in NYC swayed me otherwise. These toppers inject major wattage to dark winterwear, and are perfect for upcoming holiday soirees.

Old Navy Metallic Jeans: Love It or Hate It?
Metallic is a great trend because it instantaneously adds shimmer and shine to a dull outfit. Old Navy has applied that concept to its denim with Old Navy "The Flirt" Metallic Jeans ($20, originally $35).
