Monday = Internship Day!

Today I'm searching for fall trends, zeroing in on sequins. Yup, looks like sequins is here to stay for another two seasons anyway! After viewing Spring/Summer 2011 collections, sequins is in abundance in typical and classic colours such as grey, black and white, but also in new and exciting colours for that fresh Spring look. I've shopped hundreds (ok, maybe not hundreds) of sites, looking for top trends and favourite picks for zestypink.com. Here are my favourite "save", "spend" and "splurge" pieces of the day: Although I must pick the splurge option as my personal favourite. I love that kind of gradient/monochoromatic look.






 
  


How much sequins is too much? The time of major excess is gone and passed, but that doesn't mean you have to resort to pure minimalism when it comes to sequins. With that being said, rule of thumb is to focus ONE (1) aspect of clothing on sequins. For example, a sequined top with a pencil skirt -OR- a sequined pencil skirt with a top, not both. If you want to wear a full-on sequined dress, that's fine. Too many colours in your dress? Not a problem, balance it out with heels in a neutral shade if you feel too conspicuous. If your dress is a neutral hue, up the anti with the shoes and make a statement! (ie- white sequined dress with red heels)
