All that Glitters – Part 1

I am not usually a fan of sequins, I like them in theory but it doesn’t take much for an item with sequins to look second-hand. Laziness wins out and I don’t buy anything that requires hand washing. This year it is a serious trend and I am keen to see if I can find ways to incorporate it into my wardrobe without feeling like it is too over the top or requires too much effort.

Olivia Palmero keeps everything else simple letting her jacket literally and figuratively shine. She wears a French Connection Pearl Queen Jacket ($528). 

A jacket is a great sequined item because they tend to not need as much washing and the likely wear and tear will be minimal.

You can recreate this look for $336:

• Jeans – $62
• Shirt – $45
• Jacket – $165
• Shoes – $34
• Bag – $32

If you want to incorporate this trend into your look but you are not inclined to go the full glitter you can add a touch of sparkle in your accessories or as highlighting on your clothing rather than large blocks of bling.

Just want to share some info on this great Aussie brand/ designer I just heard about (I know, I know I am probably a million years behind) !

They do casual wear in sizes 14 to 26 and they do not buy into the idea that if you are over a size 14 all you want to wear is a tent. (Yay)

It’s a tiny bit like Torrid but P&H is not as hideously expensive. It’s only $10 anywhere in Australia or $25 Internationally.

Go here and check them out.

Here are a few 17 Sundays Items for some casual friday inspiration!
