The party season is the perfect time to embrace your inner magpie and adorn yourself with your very best glittering garments.
If you don’t own anything sparkly then fear not: The high street is packed with the very best sequin trends fresh from the 2010/2011 catwalk.
This is a trend that anyone can adopt, going for as much or as little as they please. You might choose to accessorise with sequins and opt for a glitzy bag, or a shimmering pair of wham-bam heels. New Look’s website is a great place to browse the latest catwalk copies of killer kicks. Have a rummage around their website for shoes. On the other hand, you could go all out and find yourself a fabulous sequined dress, tunic or, for the disco divas amongst you, a pair of sequined leggings.
A one stop shop for all shining and glitzy attire on the high street this winter is New Look. You can avoid the stress of shopping in-person, by having a look at their website too. Browsing online is a must-have for shoppers. Check out New Look’s festive women’s dresses and load up on sparkle as the Christmas season gets underway.
However, if you want something totally individual, you could think about heading to your local costume store or dancewear shop. If there are vintage versions available near you – Manchester and London both have several wonderful vintage dancewear outlets – then the sequinned pieces you find here are likely to be even more dramatic.
If you have a creative streak then why not try adapting some of your old favourites using a good old fashioned needle and thread? Invest in a large packet of sequins, whatever size, colour or shape takes your fancy, and use your imagination to create the designs and effects that you like best. Turn to your favourite fashion magazine to check out the designers’ interpretations of the sequin trend if you require further inspiration.
However you choose to incorporate sequins into your festive party dresses this year, adding a touch of Christmas sparkle is a sure fire way to get you into the Christmas spirit.
