Susanna Reid celebrated her 55th birthday yesterday with her regular stint on GMB. Taking to Instagram, the star shared a birthday snap, behind the scenes, thanking everyone for making her morning so special, as well as those who have pledged to take part in the 'One Million Minutes' campaign.
Beaming in the shot, Susanna looked ready to party in a burnished silver metallic, tie-neck blouse and a leather midi skirt. She completed her look with some sparkly silver heels to add to the festive and celebratory feel of her look.
The blouse is by British clothing brand, Monsoon and is available in silver and in gold. Susanna's stylist, Debbie Harper, revealed that the star's lovely leather skirt was from M&S, similar to this Jaeger design, which features similar seam detailing.
Susanna Reid's metallic look is perfect for the festive season
While neither of Susanna's pieces are available to buy, this is a look we have seen replicated across the high street, making it an easy one to copy. From a plethora of metallic blouses to an abundance of leather skirts, if this style has turned your head, we have great lookalikes below.
Get the look
Snap up this style quickly, as it has already sold through on Monsoon's own site and on many of the brand's stockists, making QVC one of the last places you can grab this pretty metallic piece. Available in silver or gold, it's ideal for pairing with jeans as part of a Christmas Day outfit that brings sparkle without the fuss of sequins.
A bolder silver hue than Susanna's now sold out Monsoon blouse, this bright and shiny iteration has a large tie neck detail creating a statement, retro pussy bow. Wear loose over trousers, or highlight your waist by tucking into jeans or a skirt.
Another blouse forgoing the neck tie detailing, this chic design is the perfect choice for those looking to go from AM to PM this December. With packed diaries and social engagements straight from work, this top could easily slip discreetly under a blazer, before teaming up with jeans, heels and statement earrings.
A close match to Susanna's leather skirt, this real leather piece from Jaeger features a similar midi hem and distinct stitch detailing. With a fluted hemline, this stylish skirt has a fit and flare finish that's perfect for pairing with heels or boots. Add a sparkly top for a party aesthetic, or add a heritage effect with a cable knit sweater.
Another midi design, leather skirts are having a major moment this season, but it's a pattern we're seeing on repeat every autumn. If you've been delaying investing, this trend isn't going anywhere, and leather skirts can be worn from autumn through to spring, making them a great investment style. The flared hem on this skirt helps to balance out your top half.
The most similar silhouette to Susanna's this sleek pencil skirt design is as versatile as it is chic. Made from sheepskin leather, the just below the knee silhouette is ideal for teaming with everything from pretty blouses and camisoles to cosy knits for a more relaxed feel. Thanks to the more tailored shape, you can wear this skirt with pretty much any shoe.
Metallics is one of the biggest autumn/winter fashion trends for 2025, and naturally, as we hurtle towards Christmas, this look has come into its own. While all metallic tones are well received at this time of year, burnished tones, like Susanna's, are the most versatile and flattering. The slightly darker base hue tempers the shine for a more elevated finish.
And while Susanna's outfit was all party on the top, the sleek leather skirt tapped into another big style moment for the season, and delivered a premium and polished, almost office-ready look on the bottom half of the look. Expertly fitted, the A-line silhouette and midi length hem were extremely elegant, and leather skirts are once again having a major style moment. A brilliant investment for any winter capsule wardrobe, the real deal might be expensive, but you will wear it year in, year out.
Finishing off her birthday ensemble with some sparkly heels, while Susanna looked fabulous for her morning GMB role, this easy-to-replicate look was also delivering some serious style inspiration for the coming weeks. Whether you're still sorting your Christmas party outfit or need something smart but sparkly for Christmas Day, a metallic blouse and leather skirt is a combination worth considering.
