Sequins-Sequins-Sequins

Look anywhere this season and you will see sequins: in fashion mags, on E News, on the streets of NY, my closet... and thank god because I LOVE sequins. The key with sequins though, is moderation. For example, a great pair of jeans with a sequin top under a jacket, a fab skirt/dress with sequin shoes or add a sequin headband to any outfit!
My fave sequin items in my closet? A few sequin tanks that go perfect with my seven jeans and heals-I have one in black and one in silver... both from H+M last season. These are lined tanks, not causal wife-beater tanks... although those are cute too. I usually put a jacket on top, like the menswear jacket that I have recently posted. I, of course, also have my treasured purple sequined heels, which I think go well with just about anything. I have also recently purchased a few sequined head bands from Old Navy that I am loving, even though they hurt behind my ears a bit, but that's the price of being a fashionista!

I have had a ton of luck finding sequins at TJ Maxx, but here are some items that you could incorporate into your wardrobe, without having to scour the racks at the Maxx:



This one is a little more on the casual side, but for this price, you should own one.
Old Navy  $14.50




I LOVE the front of this tank because it looks so smooth and I LOVE the price of this tank BUT the back doesn't have sequins which to me, is a bit odd.  It's like your one person walking towards me and another person walking away.  Nonetheless, for $12.50 could be great under a jacket.
Forever 21 $12.50






Perfect as she is wearing it! 
Don't add additional sparkle or you'll start to look like you're a performing ice skater.
Forever 21  $29.80


Be on the look out for your key pieces and have fun with sequins, just in moderation.
