The Lovely Cupboard: Metallic Obsession

Metallic Obsession

November 13, 2011

I've always had a thing for silver and gold, but all the pretty things I'm seeing lately are proving that metal is the new black. Metallic has made it big in clothing, decor, furniture and even art. My holiday decorating is totally themed around silvers, coppers, and golds. (I'm working on several projects for a big reveal in the next few weeks.) Here are some of my favorite images floating around the web lately. Enjoy the shimmer!

CHRISTMAS WISH LIST

Zara metallic clutch

Stila's All Over Shimmer Eyes

Suede and metallic peep toe heels via Anthro

Those shoes...I mean, really? How does Anthropolgie continue to create things that I crave?

What's on your wish list this year?

I'm all about some metallic too. My holiday stuff is all bright green and red and I wish I could switch it all up to metallic neutrals.

I'm loving that mint green room! The gold accents make it much more cozy too! I too have an obsession with metallics, so this post is right up my alley!

I love a little bling in a room...maybe not as much as "Donna Decorates Dallas"....but they can certainly perk up a space :)

I love metallics! I have been upcycling Goodwill finds (like candlesticks) with silver spray paint. The modern vintage look is refreshing!
