Sequin- Absolute Winter Must Have!
What comes to your mind when you think of winter dressing ? Well for me, winter is all about adding happy touches to my outfits, whether it is a red lipstick, shiny metallic shoes or even a sequin skirt. With such an enormous popularity of sequin items this holiday season, I felt I owed to dedicate at least one post to the sparkly sequin trend. If you have recently made an investment into a sequin item, have no regrets! Based on all the runway reports, sequin trend will stay with us for as long as summer 2009.
Honestly though, I think sequin can never really go out of style. The only difference this time around is that designers are making it easier to integrate sequin garments in your daily looks. For example: You will not look overdone for an office/work with a red turtleneck, black sequin skirt, black tights and ankle booties or pumps. Then you can wear the same skirt with a white ruffled tank and pumps for a night on the town. Sequin items are so inspirational when put together with other plain items found in your closet . What do you guys think of a sequin trend? Do you love it or loathe it?
Here are some examples of sequin from Spring/Summer 2009 Collections:
[SinglePic not found] [SinglePic not found]I went out for drinks with a friend of mine and since I always get inspired by my posts I wore:
- My mom’s black sequin top (Yes, it’s long enough for me to wear it as a dress, he-he)
- Black Lace tights from H&M
- Crystal hoop earrings from Aldo
- Statement Cuff- RW&Co
- Pumps- Diba (Winners)
- Black Blazer- Le Château
On its own I’d say it’s a bit too flashy for my taste. But the way you’ve styled it and toned it down with the right accessories I could definitely feel comfortable wearing that! Love your outfit and very cute pix! =)
Oh Mimi you look just amazing!!!
)because they were supposed to be only for night. But I’m getting interested and I would like to have at least one piece, but don’t know if I would find it… 
Love the way you paired the sequin top/dress with the other details. The lace tights are gorgeous. You look beautiful as always.
To be honest I think I have no sequin pieces… I always have been a bit afraid of them (me, imagine
Take care darling, all the best

OMFG.. you’re stunning Mimi. Love the dress and the tights.
Hi Leyla!- Thank you darling for your sweet comment
Sequins are not for everyone, but you should definitely try it.
Hi The Seeker!- Thank you, thank you. I’m blushing from all the comments. hehe
I think you’d look great with something that has sequin details…There are so many garments like that. For example: A top with some sequin details under a blazer would look perfect for any occasion. 
Give it a shot ! 
Hi Songy! – Thanks darling
Love this trend and how you are wearing it!
Hi there-I adore the sequin trend and you soo rock in this dress, it’s perfection on you! thanks for your well wishes too!
that’s a great holiday (and hot mama) outfit right there
yeah I have tees with a little bit of sequins and I like wearing them with jeans all the time-adds a littel glamorous touch.
i love sequins but only a little accent not overall.
I love sequins, and I also have a black sequin jacket. Thank you, you gave me quite an idea on how to wear it during the day! You look fabulous in your going-out outfit. Soon I have to organize going out with friends too, so I can dress up!
My holidays have started today [we got our report cards today], so I’m great! And how are you?
And thanks for commenting on my Lookbook too, you have convinced me to continue it. I put snippets of things that inspire me in there.
And I tutor Maths, English and Spanish, just what the guys need at the moment
