how to: wear sequins during the day

How to wear a Sequins Skirt
| top: French Connection, skirt: 3.1 Phillip Lim (another style here), shoes: ASOS, beanie: All Saints, clutch: Poupee Couture, necklace: Bauble Bar |

I am all for pairing unexpected items together to create an unconventional look, it comes as no surprise, playing by rules is not for me.  Creating your own is more risk-taking and way more fun!

My idea of making sequins less of a statement and a tad more on the casual side is by pairing with a low-key top -- tank, tee, sweater or sweatshirt.  Minimal accessorizing for a daytime look, with sequins being such a standout piece, outfit add-on's should be kept a neutral tone.  Ankle booties over a pump add a little edge; however, either will do.

All in all, to keep your look from being predictable --  keep away from being too matchy/matchy and trying to keep the same color palette throughout the entire outfit.
