The metallic midi pleated skirt is the hot topic on every fashionistas lips. Casual, dressed, it doesn't matter, this diverse piece can be worn with a  cropped blazer to the office, a t-shirt and trainers for an off duty feel or glam it up with a pair of heels and a body top. The styling possibilities are endless! It's time to make this item in your wardrobe count, it's not just a one time piece, it's an investment. Here is the DV8 Style Guide to wearing a metallic pleated midi skirt...

I know the sun is still creeping up here and there but let's face it, we are closer to winter than summer which means warm hues, textured layering and of course winter boots. We love it all so why not combine all the style must haves from Autumn/Winter 16 into one outfit. Create an everyday look with your metallic skirt by pairing with a longline coat, a high neck top and some killer heeled boots...we love this look! Be sure to have fun with colour and texture clashing, it's a must!

Although this piece looks as if it has been plucked out of the ultra glamorous 1940s there is no reason why you can't keep it casual. Team yours with statement trainers and a t-shirt for an ever stylish off duty look. Daytime shopping, a catch up coffee date with your BFF, this skirt will give your casual look a classic flair. Take it to the next level of awesome and pair with a leather or bomber jacket, you can't get any cooler than that.

This look was probably your first thought when looking at this shimmering beauty. A fur coat, statement belt and heels create a perfect vintage inspired look for a night out or a wedding. Be the most glamorous girl in the room with a quirky edge that will set you apart from the crowd. Keeping the accessories and additional items neutral colours to make this skirt pop. 

Probably the most alternative style for this look but the most effective. Be daring and team your metalic beauty with a knitted jumper. This look was inspired by style queen Alexa Chung, she may have teamed it with Gucci but we promise you the look is just as impressive with a statement high street find. Bring in a knit with a pop of colour and decorative pattern, you will be sure get a few looks of approval on your morning commute.
