With the holiday season upon us, this is the time to indulge in luxurious evening wear choices. Silk, velvets, and plaids are easy and safe choices to dress up in, but why not take things further? Dare we say sequins? Regarding holiday dressing, there’s no better choice than sequins.
Sequins are deceptively simple, often thought of as over the top (and what is wrong with that?), but they add a glamourous spin to any article of clothing they adorn. The wearer is instantly transformed, and all eyes are on them wherever they go. Now, for the holiday season, think black velvet pants with a sequin halter top and strappy sandals; A sleeveless black sequined dress, black tights worn with silver slingback shoes and a deep burgundy cropped faux fur jacket; A cropped tuxedo jacket worn over a deep v-neck body suit with gold coated denim slacks and black suede booties with a gold toe cap; navy menswear suiting with a black lace bralette and black kitten heels; Or a oversized tuxedo blazer dress with sequined boots.
Now, if you think sequins are a one-trick pony, only good for festive occasions, you are wrong. For the FW 2024 season, we have devised a few ways to wear sequins from a holiday soiree to street style every day.
Sequin Pants
Pairing sequin pants with a crisp button down or cashmere turtleneck and ankle books, gives an air of effortless chic and the “I just threw this on” feeling.
Sequined Boots
Sequined boots become the perfect bold accessory to a LBD or a winter white ensemble, drawing one’s attention down the entire outfit.
The Sequined Skirt
Ahhh, who doesn’t love a little sparkle when they walk. A sequined skirt in neutral tones pairs perfectly with a fitted sweater and oversized outerwear in a darker hue.
A Sequined Bodysuit
A black sequined body suit is the perfect foil to jeans in a mid-wash color. Think oversized sunnies, pointy-toe stiletto heels, and an oversized puffer jacket.
The Sequined Blazer
Although a sequined blazer in the daytime may feel a little much, if paired with black trousers, a white t-shirt and and flats, gives off a casual glamorous vibe.
Conclusion
Buy the sequins for the holiday season but stay with them for the fun pairings long after the season is over.
