Styling Sequins for NYE


I made this inspiration board for a contest that Solestruck is having for the best New Years Eve outfit.
When it comes to styling sequins on New Years Eve, it’s kinda tricky. How do you stand out in a crowd full of sequined beauties?? Better yet, how do you keep yourself from looking like a Vegas show girl?

Be original and don’t let the sequins overpower the outfit (I know this is easier said than done). Combine sequins with one of your favorite styles. I’m all about vintage, glam and I love the rocker look. For my NYE ensemble, I was going for Almost Famous meets Glam Rock. Where’s the tour bus at? I’m ready to hop on it! I’m not a groupie though…I’m a band-aide.  ;-)

Sequin Dress: Vintage

Led Zeppelin Concert Tee: Vintage

Faux Fur Jacket: Lanvin for H&M

Necklace: Free People

Leg Jewelry: Rill Rill

One more thing for your enjoyment. This picture is actually from NYE 2011 (yes I wore the same coat and shoes and I’m ok with that ;-) ). A total candid shot. I had no idea it was taken until the next day when my friend posted it on Facebook. One of my favorite pics of all time. I think it really captures the NYE spirit. I feel like it could be an ad for shoes…or alcohol…pick your vice ;-)
