SLB FASHION: How to wear Sequins

Sequins: They practically define us–yet even we know they can be tricky to wear! Many fear wearing sparkle during the day, but if done well, it can really make an outfit. The trick is to rock sequins in a casual-glam way that looks effortlessly chic.

But if you don't get your look right, you could end up looking like a disco ball! Follow these guidelines if you want to be admired for your glittering style .


Shiny, jazzy and eye-catching sequins is one  fashion trend that is here to stay. Be it day or night, sequins can be elegance, as they shimmer on cocktail dresses and gowns or make for a bold style statement when worn as embellishments for tops, skirts or blazers.

But wearing sequins can be tricky.  "Sequins on an outfit or accessory is the ultimate bling, but this style needs to be paired with caution, to avoid overkill. I find that small sequins work over giant sequins as they look a lot classier. Also, remember to wear one sequined item at a time."
Whether you are heading to a glamorous party or feel like dressing up for a casual day out, adding shimmer to your personality makes for an instant glitzy makeover. Since sequins are such bold pieces, always remember to go minimal on your accessories and makeup, if you want to make a stylish impact.
The classic sequined dress
Sequined dresses and gowns are  worn as evening wear, but you can create a day-appropriate outfit if you pair it with minimum accessories. Opt for colors like black, gold, white and silver as they are classic for sequin dresses, especially if you want to avoid looking like a Christmas tree. Keep your eye and lip make-up minimal, as you don't want to take the focus away from your dress. You can further team your outfit with a single neckpiece and thin silver or metal bangles in one hand.

Wearing sequins in the day
While this trend is mainly associated with crazy night outings or high-profile red carpet functions, you can always take up the challenge to dig deeper and wear sequins for a brunch party if you pay attention to minute detail. It takes a certain amount of confidence to wear sequins during the day, but you can nail the look by choosing a barely-there color, such as nude or blush. Try using matte sequins instead of glossy ones. Don't accessorize a lot when it comes to jewellery since your outfit already has the bling
element. As for embellishing in accessories, Add a simple chain, diamond studs for the ears and a statement ring, and you are good to go.

Accessories with sequins
Not ready for sequined clothing yet? If you think a shimmering dress isn't your style, there is no reason why you still can't incorporate this trend in your wardrobe in subtle ways. You can always sport sequined shoes and bags, that are fast becoming a rage
