Casual Friday/Leftover Sparkle Pt. 1

TGIF everyone!

Now that the holidays are over, I’m faced with the dilemma of what  to do with my sequin clothes.   I don’t want to pack my sparkly stuff away just yet so I decided to incorporate them into my everyday wardrobe.  I picked the pencil skirt because it was the  easiest to wear.   To get past the  sequins, I treated  it  like a regular  black skirt.  I wore my denim shirt and v-neck  sweater to make the skirt more casual  (you know I had to have a pop of color!).  I kept my accessories simple with a  chain link necklace and sliver studs in my ears.  I completed my look by wearing opaque tights and pointy toe flats.  Overall I think I did a pretty good job on my first try.  I’m sure there are some things that I could have done differently but in all I’ll give myself a B+ for this assignment!

What would you wear with a sequin skirt?

Put a Brooch on It

Happy Hump Day all!

Okay so is it safe to say Fall is over?  We went from basking in the warm Fall sun to 30-40 degree temps!   I ignored the forecast and still continued to wear my trench coat even though it wasn’t keeping me warm.  Finally after  freezing on the train platform last week, I ended my standoff.  My initial thought was to buy a new coat but then I  started thinking of ways to update my old coat. Adding a brooch instantly came to mind.  Brooches are great way to liven up an old coat.  Colorful and sparkly  ones will definitely make your coat stand out.   Try putting together different brooch shapes and sizes. And don’t be afraid to add more than one brooch either.  As they say “the more the merrier”!

Would you add a brooch to your coat?

Have a great evening!
