Fab Finger Discount: Aqua Metallic Draped Dress
If you're looking for a dazzling and affordable holiday party dress, look no further than this Aqua Metallic Draped Dress ($70, originally $88). I plan on rocking it at my company holiday bash. What's great is that it looks fancy but doesn't feel that way — the cotton/metallic fabric is easy to move in.
March Shopping Madness: Shiny Shiny
Metallics are mighty steadfast. They've been around for a while, and even if you think they've overstayed their welcome, they aren't going anywhere. If you love yourself some radiance, invest in some shiny shiny.
Celebrity Style: Charlize Theron
I've been eyeing Derek Lam's draped, metallic dress for months now, hoping a celebrity would wear it. Sure enough, Charlize Theron attended the Meteor Irish Music Awards in Ireland in said frock and looked every bit the shining star. Her discreet accessories allow the dress to do all the razzle dazzling.
Celebrity Style: Katherine Heigl
Your hubby's birthday is the perfect chance to get dolled up, and Katherine Heigl did just that for her man. She dressed up in Diane von Furstenberg's liquid metallic dress, a cropped black leather jacket, and a silver Prada clutch. This is one of the actress's most edgy looks and I approve.
Fabworthy: Marciano Analisa Metallic Gladiator Sandal
This Marciano Analisa Metallic Gladiator Sandal ($200) is the closest we're going to get to looking like Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. It's daring, in your face, and designed for the boldest gals out there. It's currently not sold online, but fret not; find a Marciano store near you and get going.
The Look For Less: Jalda Metallic Python Bean Clutch
I used to think there was only so much you could do to spice up a clutch, but this Jalda
Metallic Python Bean Clutch ($495) has proved me wrong. The exotic python is chic and the bean-shape hardware is unique. Plus, it goes from clutch to tote in an instant.
Fabworthy: Kors Michael Kors Metallic Sandals
Should you be going anywhere tropical — physically or within your imagination — be sure to take these Kors Michael Kors Metallic Flat Strappy Sandals ($215) with you. They'll show off your pedicure and give your feet a much-needed breath of fresh air. Only, opt to wear them with tame clothing so that your feet can do the dazzling.
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). I personally like a little sheen to my jeans so I would wear these if the silhouette is flattering.
Celebrity Style: Brittany Snow
Fab's friend Brittany Snow dressed herself in Jay Godfrey's chiffon frock (the dress is currently sold out but contact Saks for availability) at the Grammy kick-off party. I love the flowy silhouette on her, as well as the gray color: It makes her blue eyes sparkle. She kept her accessories simple, opting to draw attention to her shiny, silver metallic ankle-strap heels.
Party On Party Dresses: Shiny Stunners
This New Year's, do like Fergie did in her Jenny Packham sequined dress at the American Music Awards and don a Shiny Stunner. It'll surely turn some heads — in a good way.
Because sequin and metallic frocks are so eye catching, truly confident gals should go this route.
