I also really like bronze so I own items in all those 3 metallics. I’m really drawn to metallic pleated skirts but wear skirts so seldom I have resisted buying one </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337998 Fri, 08 Sep 2023 16:50:48 +0000 Staysfit 2337998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like some pewter and silver metallic accessories. For example, shoes and belts. &nbsp;I would love to find a nice handbag and/or tote. I have a very subtly knit Vince top with some silver metallic thread mixed with the regular thread and I like that. I am particular as to the amount of shine. &nbsp;Too much and I feel like an item looks like tin foil, a mirror, or part of a Tin Man costume. &nbsp;I prefer matte to slight sheen on metallic wardrobe items. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337990 Fri, 08 Sep 2023 13:22:30 +0000 The Cat 2337990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Right now, I am in fact wearing four silver items while grocery shopping : short trenchcoat, large scarf, sneakers and socks. All solid, except the socks, which have a couple of black stripes.</p> <p>(The rest of my outfit: light grey jeans, semi-long black tank top with a graphic print in green &amp; yellow &amp; pink &amp; blue &amp; white, grey eyewear, coin-sized deep green shimmering earrings, black mesh-like light-weight shopper. Oh, and a shopping cart in black &amp; grey.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337979 Fri, 08 Sep 2023 08:30:11 +0000 The Cat 2337979@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love silver footwear.

The vest looked pretty nice, actually. The Target items looked cheap, honestly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337710 Tue, 05 Sep 2023 19:43:35 +0000 rebekahphoto 2337710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love metallics and have quite a few silver items, lately my silver "going out"&nbsp; crossbody has had lots of summer wear--it has a great design with a slip pocket on one side, and a perfect phone sized zipper pocket on the other, along with a main zip-just big enough for the essentials and eye glasses/sunglasses.&nbsp;</p> <p>My recent style observation: TONS of metallic in Italy this summer: metallic leather bags, accessories, headbands and shoes. especially sneaker trims! It was all about the bling </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337683 Tue, 05 Sep 2023 13:19:01 +0000 Eliza 2337683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have worn some metallic footwear and bags in the past, while others stayed in my closet. Now that my hair is its natural silvery white color, I might consider sneakers or a bag in pewter or silver. For me, the key to enjoying metallics is that they be matte or slightly mottled. Too shiny or mirrored a finish isn’t me. I have a fair amount of jewelry with a brushed or matte surface also. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337679 Tue, 05 Sep 2023 12:34:13 +0000 unfrumped 2337679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m like Janet— I think I should do well with silver items like shoes or handbag but then I don’t wear them. Even darker pewter languished. I think it’s somehow too attention- getting for me, just somehow is not “ me” once I get dressed in it. Whereas a contrasting color of some sort is ok— burgundy shoes, reptile belts, dark lavender purse.<br /> And possibly just the right darkened “metallic-adjacent “ would work, if I come across it. And I will wear patent leather, though don’t have any right now except dressy clutches. </p> <p>But I like metallics in the ads and models and outfits of others. So I’m trying to just be aware and not get drawn into buying metallic items I won’t wear. </p> <p>I will wear it in scarves. I have an<br /> unusual silver mesh scarf that functions like a necklace. Or silver threads in scarves. And of course jewelry, and hardware on handbags. </p> <p>Otherwise, I’m trying to add texture and shine in other ways. When I get the right mix of that, it feels more comfortable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337641 Mon, 04 Sep 2023 23:58:51 +0000 kellygirl 2337641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun finds! I love metallic in moderation and usually in footwear. I had a metallic moto from Bebe ages ago and it didn't get a lot of wear.--purchased for my imaginary life, I suppose. I find that my silver Birks and soft gold sandals go with almost everything and are easier to style than a bright white sandal.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337628 Mon, 04 Sep 2023 21:53:00 +0000 RobinF 2337628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh love the new purchases! I love metallics but don’t have a lot in my closet. It can feel to bright on me but I hope to get some sneakers this fall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337621 Mon, 04 Sep 2023 19:51:40 +0000 DonnaF 2337621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Silver is having a decade for me. I had to get rid of the Jeffrey Campbell clogs (in Finds) because they started to peel so badly. I also should pass on the clutch because I never use it. Missing from Finds are a crew neck short sleeve sweater, a v-neck pullover, and my silver clogs which the YLF seems to love but are a bit treacherous for me on stairs. My most worn item are my Crocs which I wear as house shoes. I'm not as fond of them with outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337582 Mon, 04 Sep 2023 13:53:29 +0000 Helena 2337582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nothing metallic in my wardrobe at the moment, but as a silver jewellery wearer, I am enjoying that my metal of choice is having a fashion moment! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337576 Mon, 04 Sep 2023 13:19:26 +0000 Anonymous 2337576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like wearing metallics...gold tone first then some silver. &nbsp;Bronze and pewter are more casual versions. &nbsp;I have thought about adding copper and rose gold but have not. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337573 Mon, 04 Sep 2023 13:01:03 +0000 Janet 2337573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m always drawn to silver clothing items but then somehow end up not wearing them much. I have a silver faux leather jacket sitting in the consignment pile for that reason. </p> <p>Maybe it’s because I already cover that ground with silver jewelry and hardware (buckles etc) so more silver in my clothing feels OTT. I do still use my silver tote, but I have gone a little off of silver in footwear, even though I wore it a lot a few years ago. </p> <p>All that said, that jacket is a stunner! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337540 Mon, 04 Sep 2023 06:03:55 +0000 cat2 2337540@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am also enjoying seeing metallics again. I replaced my old gold flats with a new pair, but didn’t otherwise expand my collection. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337529 Mon, 04 Sep 2023 04:11:26 +0000 Suz 2337529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, since my moniker is "laid-back luminous garçonne, I've been all about the silver metallic since 2016 when I let my silver hair come in. :)&nbsp;</p> <p>I have a whole closet full already but you can bet I will be jumping on this trend and adding more if I can.&nbsp;</p> <p>Below are the silver (or silvery) items I currently own.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337520 Mon, 04 Sep 2023 02:40:31 +0000 Carol 2337520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like how the jacket is styled, with all the gold jewelry.</p> <p>Silver probably is having a moment. I remember I had a purple shiny purse in the aughts--this style seems to come and go. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337517 Mon, 04 Sep 2023 02:00:50 +0000 Jaime 2337517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a pretty nice collection of silver collected over the years, particularly since I stopped coloring my hair. I am enjoying this fashion spotlight though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337513 Mon, 04 Sep 2023 01:52:12 +0000 Sal 2337513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun!&nbsp; I do like metallics.</p> <p>I used to have some silver slip on sneakers that I loved and eventually wore out - also pewter high tops that were a lot of fun.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Currently my only option is gold sandals..... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337507 Mon, 04 Sep 2023 00:43:19 +0000 Kyle 2337507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Roberta.

I like the items you linked. 95% silver but the earrings are getting lost in my hair so I may add gold for contrast. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/metallic-silver#post-2337483 Sun, 03 Sep 2023 21:32:49 +0000 Anonymous 2337483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I wear my gold Birks most days, but otherwise, not really.
