Party season for me starts around diwali and goes well till the first week of januray. That is a good stretch of more than 2 months and one of my top essentials for this time of the year is a sequin number. Its definitely the item that catches everyones eyes at parties and i strongly suggest you get a sequin piece for those dressier parties. Having said that i wouldn’t want to have something hang in my closet the whole year and just come out 2-3 times so i decided to style my stunning bodycon dress from NUE for a casual day.
here are a few ways you can make those sequin pieces work for casual occasions
- Change your shoes to casuals like sneakers or flats.
- Wear casual accessories like a casual velvet choker or a chunky belt.
- If styling a top, wear with ripped jeans, boyfriend jeans, shorts in the summer time or culottes.
- if styling a sequin skirt wear with a graphic tee or sweatshirt, denim jacket or casual sweater.
- a sequin blazer looks great paired with a plain tee and ripped jeans.
- if styling a bodycon dress layer a full skirt on top.
NUE by Shani is a revolutionary line of flirty dresses with in built compression fabric that is specially woven with spun lycra that shapes and moulds the body, giving the wearer an appearance of a size smaller and allowing her to celebrate her body. Shani, the designer takes the timeless pursuit of enhancing the female shape through tailoring tricks like rusching, darting etc NUE dresses are luxurious and suited to the many roles of modern women and it definitely gave shape to my body without any discomfort. On this day i went out for lunch after the shoot and was quite comfortable throughout.

Love sequins! I like how you took a dress and turned it into a top! So awesome and great to make two outfits out of one dress! Fabulous looks!

Thanks for linking up to Top of the World Style. Great job on having the dress due double duty as a top. It gives an extra outfit. I love the concept!
ReplyDeleteI really like your tip on pairing sequins with denim! I think that would really give a cool look to it with the contrasting feels. Love how you paired the dress with the choker.

Wow, Chichi, that dress looks amazing on you, girl! I love the color and overall fit, such a beautiful piece and I love how you've styled it both casual and formal. I'm a sucker for sequins this time of year, it just really enhances the overall festive mood we love so much during the holiday season. I have a sequin blazer I love to pair with jeans for a more casual vibe, so I definitely agree with that and all your other suggestions! Thanks so much for sharing, beauty, and I hope you have the most amazing week ahead!
