Silver Lining

When the weather gets frigid, it may be a little more fun to go against the instinctual sweater look and choose sharp colors that are reminiscent of snow-topped mountains and mirrored metallic like a frozen lake. I’ve been inspired lately by the color silver as it symbolizes security, reliability, intelligence, modesty and maturity. Regardless of what the color silver “means” to you, I dare you to add an extra pop of silver to your look. Adding a shiny touch of metallic as an alternative to patent leather to your look will help you stand out and, as Rihanna would say, shine bright like a diamond!

You can adopt the metallic silver look by rocking a silver dress, pair of vegan leggings, booties, a purse, or even hologram nail polish. Adding touches of this refreshing modern trend is a functional way to stand out.

Remember the  Disney channel movie “Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century”? Don’t tell me I wasn’t alone as a child in thinking that people in the future would only wear shiny metallic colors. So take a look at my top picks and unleash your inner “Zenon”.
