Everybody, Everywear : Sequins and Sparkles
Wednesday, December 14, 2011I love daytime sequins but I haven't indulged in sequins since the summer months. I really wanted to make a collar and smother it in sequins to wear with my current wardrobe crush - a plain black fitted jumper from H&M - but time conspired against me and the day arrived before I had a chance to find my sewing box! Luckily, my trusty sequin t-shirt was to hand.
Normally, this is worn when the sun shines so teaming it with winter clothes is new to me. I avoided the temptation to pair it with my favourite jeans but I had no choice but to layer it with two cardigans and a thick scarf as the temperature plummets.
I pinned a board of sequins for inspiration. I love how these ladies have taken sequins and paired them with different fabrics and layered them up for daytime wear.

I have also developed a serious crush on sequin envelope bags, much like this one from Asos.

ReplyDeleteI wear sequins not nearly enough! I found a super cute black sequined skirt for this month's theme, and I can't wait to remix it all during Christmas. So excited haha. That tank is awesome, great idea to layer it!

I'm just not that into sequins and that, so I didn't take part this month. I like how you styled your look. Is is the same cardi in both shots? I can't decide!
ReplyDeleteOOoooo fabulous EBEW submission! And some great inspiration photos to boot :) I wear sequins everywhere and anywhere - to bed, to work, to the grocery store, to the car wash, for gardening :P I'm joking :P but I would if I could!

I love how you styled your sequins for winter with all the layers. Great splash of pink with the scarf.
ReplyDeleteYay for layered sequins! I like your layering and I have that exact same clutch on my wish list :)
ReplyDeleteI must admit that I don't know how to wear them, I love them but don't think they suit me, maybe in a bag or shoes
ReplyDeleteLovely tee - I'm a bit weird about sequins too, part of me wants to wear my sequin skirt with my sequin tee for a full on explosion of sparkle, but I think I'd better leave that look for little kids to sport!!x
ReplyDeleteLovely tee-shirt xx
ReplyDelete@Sophie - Country girl It's two different cardigans... it was cold!
