I Heart Sequins

16 Feb

sequinsI just felt the need to post some of my favorite sequined pieces. In case you didn’t know from past posts like this one, I loooooove sequins (well, pretty much anything that sparkles). When I’m at the mall it doesn’t matter how focused I am, how crunched I am for time, or how ridiculous the actual product is, I am drawn to shiny objects like a moth to a flame.

Lucky for me they are a hot commodity right now, with some of my favorite designers – such as Matthew Williamson, Proenza Schouler’s Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough, and Blumarine’s Anna Molinari - dousing their recent collections with them. Below, a few of the dazzling beauties more within my reach (although still a stretch).

I tried on a version of these at Bloomies during the holidays, but this is the spring look. The ones I tried on were blue/black and not platforms. Love them in all shapes and shades. (Don’t even get me started on the flats!)

I saw this in Nords from a mile away….that Marc just knows the key to my heart. As if the bag isn’t too adorable for words in pinks and reds, it also comes in solid black and a blue/gray version of the one pictured. LOVE.

Sequins are one thing…but sequins on a light-as-air silk chiffon dress? Just put me out of my misery now. Shopbop, you tease.
