Five of the best... metallics

What, it's not christmas and we're supposed to be wearing shiny clothes? Well, I'll be... Still, with items like these it shouldn't be that much of a stretch to bling in spring.

Make like a space-age babe in this silver metallic coat from Primark, £20. You can run around acting like a replicant from Blade Runner. Let's hope it'll help you pick up a young Harrison Ford-alike.

So over diamonds since Blood Diamond came out? Why not sling on some bling with this baby? Cracked gold drawstring bag, ASOS, £25.

This gorgeous gold frame bag from Oasis, £18, is bound to make you come over all ladylike. Why not team with a pussy bow blouse and high-waisted, voluminous skirt.

I love this skirt so much that it's already been featured on the front page in the Love This section and here it is again for good measure. Voluminous, metallic and high-waisted this ticks virtually all the trend boxes. Woven metallic high-waist skirt, Warehouse, £45.
