Style Diary: Shiny Sequin Tops

Sparkle. Glitter.  Sequin.

I love it all.  The girly girl in me cannot resist the shiny shiny.  I have a whole Pinterest board dedicated to what I call glitter fashion (which you can view here).

Here are two outfits incorporating a shiny sequin top for work.

Saks had sold a bunch of sequin sweaters like this.  Alice & Olivia being one of the brands that sold one for about $200.  I found this one at H&M for about $30 and was surprised at the value I got given it was sequined both front and back – they didn’t skimp!  Here I paired it with my Bebe tuxedo blazer and a pair of black pants that I rolled up -they’re an oldie from H&M and the booties are from Aldo.

 

Here, I’m wearing the same pants with my Vince sweater that I purchased at off 5th, a free bracelet from the Forever 21 spring fashion presentation (can’t remember the brands for the other accessories and shoes) and yet another H&M sequin top for a fraction of the price.

How do you feel about sequins?  And have you figured out how to incorporate them into your everyday work wear?

 

 

 

Style Diary: Houndstooth

Isn’t this shoe closet amazing?  It’s Christina Aguilera’s.  Besides the fuschia, black white combo, what also caught my eye were the chandeliers and houndstooth.  I’m loving houndstooth these days.  Not knowing there was such a word to describe the pattern, my husband once described this print as the computerized digital print.  Haha he is so NOT into fashion.  Here’s my outfit which was inspired by the room above.

Here, I’m wearing a H&M dress with an exposed zipper in the back which you can’t see, a tuxedo blazer from Bebe’s clearance rack and heels by Zara.   The purse was cheap so I think the whole outfit only costed about $150.

Now if only I could replicate these nails…
