Nothing perks up your wardrobe like a great sequin piece. Whether you wear a sequin jacket with a pair of jeans or go all-out with a sequin dress, it's a look that says "Dressed up!" Try mixing sequins in with everyday items like wearing a sequin tank under a chunky sweater cardigan. Or layer a sequin sweater on top of denim leggings. Unless you are looking for a full-on holiday look (in which case you can mix with traditional holiday fabrics like velvet), opt for dressing sequins down.
1. Sequin Maxi Skirt
Nordstrom
Go full-length with this elegant (and trendy) black sequin maxi skirt from Calvin Klein. The beauty of a piece like this is that you can keep it really dressy by adding a velvet or satin top or dress it down by pairing it with a denim jacket: either way this sequin maxi is a great piece. With this much shine, keep accessories -- including shoes -- on the minimal side.
2. Cold Shoulder Sequin Dress
