Everybody, Everywear : Sequins and Sparkles

Wednesday, December 14, 2011

I 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.

  11. I 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

  12. Lovely 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
