I wanted to follow up my last post about shoes with my second favorite piece of clothing fabric .. SEQUINS. When I think back to the items of clothing that I am most drawn to they ALL involve sequins. I love the shine, glitter, and sparkle effect that a sequin maxi skirt or top gives off. When I see a girl in sequins I think, "She's fun and beautiful." No special occasion needed. Whether it's from 1980 or 2013, sequins have forever been a statement piece in fashion.
Last night I read an article titled, " 26 Fashion Rules You Should Break Immediately" and wait for it .. Rule #6 'You Can (nay, SHOULD) Wear SEQUINS for Daytime'. BOOM goes the dynamite. I'm set, are you?!
I REALLY wish my mom would have saved her sequin blouses from the 80's. I would rock the shit out those tops now .. and I do when I find one in a vintage store. They can be a rare find and it's exciting to know it's old and chances are when you are out, no one else will be rocking the same top. Don't get me wrong, I love sequins of all ages and my advice to you reading is that if you don't own a piece of sequin, FIND four one .. just because. Here are a few of my current pieces: skirts, dresses, tops. SPARKLE ON!
