Sparkle this Christmas with our top 5 sequined dresses and accessories for the party season

By Andrea Petrou on November 24th, 2011

Sequins have stuck around in the fashion world for a good few seasons and it doesn’t look like they are going anywhere before Christmas.

The highstreet is full of these sparkly lovelies from the traditional party dresses to shoes, but this year they’ve also been revamped.

Taking their influence from the masculine trend, sequins have found their way onto bow tie style necklaces, which look great worn with a white shirt and black trews.

They’ve also formed the party look on simple black playsuits for ladies who want to stand out.

Below are our top five picks.

Christmas party outfits: 80s sequins

By Andrea Petrou on November 10th, 2009

Christmas is fast approaching bringing with it the flurry of gifts, Christmas lists and unfortunately, pre festive party outfit panic.

Although we’ve had our Christmas list ready since August (what can we say? We know what we want), we are ashamed to admit we haven’t even thought about the outfits we’ll be donning for all the Christmas fun.

Therefore, for those who are as lax as we are, we’ll be putting together some Christmas outfit galleries in the the lead up to the festive month to help you celebrate in style. First up is the spangly 80s sequin look, which is perfect for a weekend party in a bar, club or smartish restaurant.

Stand out with this style by choosing unique accessories that suit your personality for a unique 80s sequined look.

Be a sequined starlet like Rumer Willis

By Andrea Petrou on August 17th, 2009

It seems as though the Christmas sequin season has come early this year.

Following in the steps of other celebrities, last weekend Rumer Willis (that’s the daughter of Bruce and Demi Moore, in case you’ve been asleep for a while) donned a sequined black frock to mark her birthday.

Yes we may still all be in our light summer dresses at the moment, but judging by the weather and the fact that this is the UK, we might soon be needing a bit of autumn sparkle.

Like Demi, it’s clear Rumer has expensive taste.

However, the highstreet seems to be one step ahead of this 21 year old fashionista so we’ve had a good look, for research purposes of course, to bring you similar dresses that won’t cost the earth.
