“The job of the artist is always to deepen the mystery.” – Francis Bacon

A few weeks ago I wrote a post about my love for art galleries, featuring the Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto. With just a short drive across the border, I was able to visit another art gallery I enjoy, the Detroit Institute of Arts. The gallery is quite diverse, with exhibits in contemporary and modern art, Indigenous art, African-Amercan art, and art from Ancient Egypt and Asia. Not only did I enjoy looking at the paintings and sculptures, but the warmth indoors and shelter from the rain. Winter really is the best opportunity to investigate local or nearby museums, since many may find it too cold for outdoor activities (I for one much rather watch winter sports than engage in them).

For our day at the art gallery, I opted to hop on the metallics trend. I think that the skirt I’m wearing is a good transitional piece because it’s so versatile. I could bundle up more with a black turtleneck and nylons, or wear it when the weather warms up with a white sleeveless or short sleeve top.

How are you styling the current metallic trend? Be sure to comment below!

Top: TNA. Skirt: Wilfred. Boots: Le Chateau. Bag: Sezane. Necklace: J.Crew (old, loving this statement piece). Earrings: Baublebar. Bracelet: Madewell. Watch: Chanel. Lips: MAC Viva Glam I.
