In the summer we tend to pare down on our clothing layers. High temperatures lead to simpler outfits that don’t involve so many heat-trapping pieces. While we want to stay cool and collected, there are still occasions where we are required to wear a jacket that either cover up our shoulders or provides some structure to our outfit. Summer outwear is the perfect way to round out your office wardrobe, protect from the elements or top off an evening look. Pick blazers made with light fabric and consider choosing something bright to make your outfit really pop.

Designers like Stella McCartney, Giambattista Valli, Marc Jacobs, and Proenza Schouler embraced peplums in 2011, and this feminine shape is sure to be a major trend heading into spring. Celebrities like Emma Stone and Jennifer Hudson have flocked to peplum dresses for walking the red carpet, but this curve-loving style is also easy to wear during the day. Just choose a peplum top! Thankfully this trend is flattering on all figures, because the hourglass silhouette can both camouflage a tummy and highlight a teeny waist. Try a flowy blouse for a subtle take on the trend, or choose a more structured fabric for a high-impact look.
1. Parker Strapless Top, $130, available at Shopbop
2. Marni Contrast-Trimmed Silk-Blend Top, $227, available at OUTNET
3. Colourblack Peplum Top, $22, available at Forever 21
4. ASOS Top With 40s Peplum, $45.69, available at ASOS

There’s never a shortage of glimmer and glitz during the holidays, but the rest of the year can look a little bleak sartorially speaking. If there’s one new piece of style advice we should add to our closets in 2012 it’s that big and small doses of gold transcend the season and the time of day. When paired with austere hues like army green, khaki or denim, a shoe, skirt or accessory piece in a golden shade will add brilliance and interest. Try the new addition to your typical brunch uniform or office outfit and you’ll be golden- literally.
1. Metallic Pleated Midi Skirt, US $72 at Topshop
2. Jimmy Choo Wilma Glitter-Coated Leather Oxfords $587 at Saks.com
3. Sequin Collar $47 ASOS.com
4. Roller Buckle Belt US $48 at MichaelKors.com
5. Quo by ORLY Nail Lacquer in Filthy Rich $10 at Shoppers Drug Mart
6. ADAM Metallic Tweed Coat $445 at Shopbop.com
