Glam Mel-Shim


Wearing metallics and shimmers in daylight hours can be one of those fashion statements that can go horribly wrong if not done in good taste. A burst of “glam stuff” can seem that you are getting in a few day light hours before you hit the club later on; or you have been to the disco and decided to keep the party going. Either, Or poor taste is like a vampire roaming the streets past sun rise. I have been very cautious of embracing this fashion fade. As you can tell I am more than a  sceptical not only the fashion statement. But also the event; the context for the glam exposure, so many factor to take into an account it is a wonder. Oh, well being the big girl that I am and through caution to the wind I embraced the glamorous metallic shimmer (Glam Mel-Shim) after noon but before sun set.

 


Having been invited to a swanky luncheon with evening entertainment; I opted for my metallic shimmer number (finally).  I got this statement top from ASOS ages ago; and never wore it. It is one of those pieces that I could have endless potential for a night out. A very versatile piece as the cut can be worn in the front or back. For this event I chose to be subtly bold by having the cut in the back. Thus creating a statement piece that was understated; I further subdued the daytime glam mel-shim with basic black shorts, Cinderella slip-ons and minimal accessories. Thus keeping the modestly elegant top as the centre fold of the look.
