How to pull off sequins during the day: 10 glitzy (but not too glitzy) tips from street style stars

17 June 2015

For decades, sequins have remained the decorative embellishment of choice for glitz-loving showgirls and Hollywood stars alike. They’ve accompanied copious numbers of actresses down the red carpet, and continue to help young girls around the world achieve the “walking disco ball” look every New Year’s Eve.

That is, until Natalie Portman rocked a sequined minidress to the UCLA Younes & Soraya Nazarian Center for Isreal Studies Gala last week in broad daylight. The actress chose a glimmering look from Dior’s Pre-Fall collection, and turned it into a casual every-day ensemble with minimal accessories and a simple up-do. Therefore, making us question everything we thought we knew about things that sparkle and shine.

Flashback to Spring 2015 runways, where Burberry Prorsum showed off an assortment of oversized sequined skirts, Chanel and Bottega Veneta incorporated subtle sequin designs into classic looks, and Dries Van Noten had models strutting their stuff in sparkly tops of green, pink and purple. Who knew sequins and spring would become BFFs?

Whether you prefer a concentrated dose of shimmer, a sporadic twinkle, or an over-the-top Gatsby-inspired look, step away from the season’s quintessential floral patterns and give your silvery separates a daytime appropriate make-under. They’ll look better in the sunlight anyways! (See: Edward Cullen).

Without further ado, learn how to pull off sequins during the day from 10 street style pros.

      My programmer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP.
      I have always disliked the idea because of the costs.
      But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using
      WordPress on several websites for about a year and am nervous about switching to another platform.
      I have heard very good things about blogengine.net.
      Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress content into it?
      Any kind of help would be really appreciated!

      I do not even understand how I stopped up right here,
      but I believed this post was once good. I don’t realize who
      you’re but certainly you’re going to a well-known blogger if
      you aren’t already. Cheers!

      Hey just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your content
      seem to be running off the screen in Safari. I’m not sure if
      this is a formatting issue or something to do with web browser
      compatibility but I thought I’d post to let you know.
      The layout look great though! Hope you get the
      problem resolved soon. Cheers
