I love gold! The Vivienne Westwood is wonderful! Metallic is one of my favorite looks always, and especially for the holidays.
I love silver but I think those gold dresses are more apt for the holidays.
I absolutely love all your proposals. And besides gold and silver, I loved the bronze jacket. It is beautiful. I am so happy Christmas is arriving.

Thx for sharing this !
I love gold, but i always feel a bit too flashy if i'm wearing it in any other form than jewellery... I think it just needs some getting used to!

My favourite metallics are those that appear in Christian Lacroix's haute couture, particularly the pale blue-greens. So dreamy!

I love metallics for holiday attire - and the rest of the year too :)
