How to Wear / Sequins

For those of you who have seen me recently, you already know I am possessed by the spirit of Liberace. I can't go anywhere without my black & gold sequin headband or my purple sequin cardigan. Not together, mind you, as I wouldn't want to blind too many people. I have several light reflecting outfits in my hat that I still have to show you, but you have to be patient, little lambs...

For now, have a look at a few style solutions for all of the sequin starved wannabe Liberace out there.

  7. I am getting my first pair of sparkly sequined pasties this week for my burlesque troupe. I think it's sort of like a rite of passage, a glittery, shimmy-ing rite.

  8. That gold sequined cocktail dress is positively delicious. I have actually been know to rock a gold sequined tank, under a jacket, to work. I'm not sure if that's technically 'allowed' under fashion mandates, but it sure is fun!

  10. I love sequins, makes me feel like an extra Christmas decoration at this time of year!

    However I think if I turned up at the office in those leggings I'd never make it through the day! Though I have been known to wear a jumper with a sequin trim to the office.

  11. i love sequins. and those first jeans from topshop. but i think its important to know how to wear them, because some people erally dont know how to work it so the final result is not so flattering.
