Only two more weeks until Christmas, you guys!
Last week I talked about how to style vintage for the holidays. This week I want to dive into another holiday favorite: sequins. Most of you probably have something sequins in your closet. If I had to guess, it’s likely a dress or a skirt. So today I’m sharing my take for how to style sequins for the holidays. In two words: edgy glam.
With sequins I think there’s a tendency to go gah-gah-glam – and I love that! Today I want to show you something a bit edgier. This jacquard Leonardo DiCaprio sweater gives my look a street style vibe that I love. The fact that it captures him at the height of my obsession (hello Romeo + Juliet) is even better. Paired with OTK boots, statement earrings and a shimmery, smokey eye I’m feeling glamorous and pretty badass.
To re-create the look, opt for a graphic tee like this one. If sweet Leo isn’t your vibe, try a vintage band tee, or this cheeky option. Notice how it’s styled with a sequin skirt in the promo photo? Edgy glam for the win!
With a sequins party on the bottom and a street style vibe on the top, I definitely recommend boots over heels to ground the look. Too many people pair OTK boots with jeans IMHO. My favorite way to style OTK boots is under midi skirts or dresses. It elongates the leg and gives off a sophisticated flair without being stuffy. My pair is old, but I’ve linked some great options below.
