Trend Report: Shiny / Metallic Leggings
Written by Tania Braukamper
For Autumn / Winter 07 - 08 the leggings trend was brought well into the future... forget the plain black cotton! Leggings, tights, pants and boots alike were livened up by shiny metallics and rubbery skin-hugging materials.

One Way To Wear It Yourself
The practical way to wear this trend? How about American Apparel's Lamé Leggings in silver or gold. Try dressing them down with plain black; or adding contrasting colours if you're feeling more daring.

There aren't too many alpha-females out there and, though she might deny it, Tania Braukamper certainly exudes their qualities. A keen eye, a focused approach, and a wardrobe spanning three rooms have made her one of the savviest of dressers. But it's not all couture for Tania, earning her fashionista credentials she'll frequently be seen on the town in a one-off, vintage dress and a pair of Gucci heels.
She says: Vintage will never go out of style
We say: Does that include vintage 80s?
