Bronze metallic leggings mixed with a silk taffeta blouse make for a great alternative to the traditional holiday festive fashions.

Frockology Style Tip:
When working with anything metallic always consider dressing it down as well as up. It will work equally as well with leather and denim as it does with silk and velvet. Plus dressing it down will make it very modern in look and feel.

Frockology Care Tip:
When dealing with garments with a lot of stretch in them, always if possible hand wash them and lay flat to dry. Any heat source tends to cause the stretch to begin to loose its elastic properties quickly, and we all know a lop sided bondage dress just looks like a wreck.

Frockology Style Tip:
When wearing a white shirt it is
best to treat it as a neutral and build
your color and texture around it.
Always remember that the bolder the
