FALL 2009 RTW: PEDAL TO THE METAL

Brilliant and lustrous, colored metallics have glamorized the nightlife of Fall 2009 by channeling rocker vibes and a sleek retro look. Metallics of all colors have made their way into stylish closets for Fall 2009, and this chic look was a hit on the runways at New York Fashion Week Fall 2009 Ready-To-Wear.

I must say, my favorite feat for this trend is probably that anyone can whip an otherwise dreary outfit into shape with a single lustrous metallic piece, such as a bright blazer. If recessionista chic has not yet hit you, try eyeing Elise Overland’s Fall/Winter Collection. Pedal to the metal, allllll the way.
