Sassy Sequins



Sequins seem to be everywhere for the forthcoming seasons.

If you thought sequinned skirts were just for dressing up during
your Barbie doll years........think again.

It seems all the big names including Sonia Rykiel and Louis Vuitton 
are going big with the sparkles.


For a grown up take on this trend go mid-length or maxi.




Blake Lively rocking her sequins






If you've got gorgeous Bambi-like legs then go short
(I can only wish for this ;-)

Pair with opaques and a gorgeous cashmere jumper


I love how this is worn with a classic trench.
Who would have thought?



A classic white shirt also brings this skirt into 2015



Keep it chic and casual when paired with some denim



You favourite t'shirt or sweatshirt can give the skirt
a relaxed weekend vibe.


What are your thoughts on sequinned skirts?
Should they only be for the young and nubile with
legs like a young foal?
Or can those of us who have legs more like a sturdy work-horse
still look sassy with sequins?

Despite being the  Chief Sparkle Fairy in my business, 
I still haven't plucked
up the courage to don a sequinned skirt. 
I'm still a minimalist at heart ;-)

Would love your thoughts on this trend

  3. I love sequins. They are so glitzy and sparkly. I think its great to pair such an obviously feminine item with something no quite so feminine for some contrast. I am loving Blake Lively's skirt above.

  4. Hello lovely,
    These images are so fun and sparkly. I have donned a sequin top--with jeans--but never a skirt. This is good inspiration for the holidays. Please join us for the next lifestyle blog linkup starting on Friday.
    xx,
    Heather
