I guess you could say my love of sequins started long ago. I could probably pinpoint it to age 5 or 6 when I began taking dance classes and have a variety of costumes covered in sequins. I still remember my favorite piece – it was a red sequined headband worn proudly like I was starring in Flash Dance or another classic dance movie.
Sequined garments were big back then and were worn in every day life – not just as part of a dance costume for a recital. These days, sequined garments aren’t always as easy to find but they are making a strong come back and whether you buy new or vintage a strong sequined piece makes the perfect staple for your closet.
Here are some of my favorites:
Perfect paired with a cropped sweater or tank creating an effortless but dressy look…
(Antik Batik Alep Cropped Sequined Pants available @ NET-A-PORTER.COM, $460.00)
A closet staple. Wear it with leggings, dress pants, a skirt, boots, heels or flats. Either way, this blouse is super versatile.
(Diane Von Furstenberg Kallina Sequined Kimono Top available @ Nordstrom.com, $498.00)
Shorts aren’t strictly for summer any more! Pair these with tights and wear them year round.
(See by Chloe Sequined Shorts available @ THEOUTNET.COM, $138.25)
The perfect party top. Animal print AND sequins? A total yes please.
(Jazzy Sequin Animal Tank available @ CharlotteRusse.com, $22.99)
Need just a touch of sparkle? This belt adds the perfect pizzazz to any outfit!
(Glitzy Gold Sequin Ruffled Elastic Cinch Belt available @ Amazon.com, $16.99)
It was really hard to include all the fabulous sequins available! If you’re looking for a one of a kind sequined piece check out Etsy or Ebay. They have tons!
Until next time,
