How to take a gold metallic pleated skirt into night.
Clue: It’s something you are probably already doing…
So you go from polo neck ninja and Adidas…
… To strappy heels. No big thing but it still surprises how changing the shoe takes something from casual to semi-elegant.
Coat: Sandro. Jumper: Forever21 (love). Skirt: Reiss. Similar from Ralph Lauren or Topshop’s printed version. Socks: Topshop. Heels: Steve Madden. Trainers: Adidas. Bag: Celine (another pre-loved one on Fashionphile who friends and I have bought from). Shades: Ray-Ban
Even though I live in laid back looks, I’ve got to side with the heels this time. All that covering up from the knit, coat and long skirt gets balanced out with a barely there heel. In a pinch I reckon that this look is a fast after work type transition if you’re still looking for holiday outfit ideas for maybe an office party.
I LOVE this gold pleated skirt. When the sun hits it, I quietly go: “wow” like a child. I know quite sad. I got mine in two sizes up to hang like a proper midi.
Check out my style video on Instagram to see the other way this skirt got styled and let me know if you’d like more videos on there.

I love the entire look, especially the sparkly socks. Love the adidas with this. Sporty-Casuy-Cool. I needed some of these for some cropped pants with brogues a few weeks ago. Yaay, I know where to get some now, Thanks

This outfit is absolute perfection. I had a gold skirt similar to the above but I sent it to the dry cleaners and it came back with half the gold peeled off. Such a sad day…
