Trendspotting: Metallics

Burberry, led by Christopher Bailey, has been taken in a new direction.  No longer simply the specialists of tartan prints and khaki trenches, it is now the place to go for bright, futuristic metallics.  And I couldn't love it more.

Seen on models and celebrities alike it is fun and inspiring, if not exactly appropriate for the office:

So, if you can't actually wear a look from above (like me), take a cue and use it as inspiration and buy something that works for your lifestyle.

Here are some similar styles so that you can make this look your own:
