Sequins aren’t just for Christmas. But it’s a good place to start.
Given the current state of the world, you would be forgiven for not hearing from you rather as festive ahead of Christmas this year, but a little sparkle can go a long way in making you smile.
Sequins may be synonymous with the holiday season, but their perennial appearance year after year is for good reason.
Not only are sequins a timeless addition to any wardrobe, but the right sequined dresses imply that you put the most effort into the room (when you were actually running out the door to catch the bus).
So, with the price of almost everything getting higher by the day (it seems), why not make your seasonal key piece tougher for you this year? Do it sequins.
Whether it’s your first office Christmas party in two years, a festive drink at a neighbor, or Santa’s favorite day himself (not to mention a welcome in the New Year with a bang a week later), a sequined garment from base will accompany you through every festive season event, and beyond.
Grab this Ombre Sequin Midi Skirt from Warehouse. Pair it with an oversized gray sweater and some black knee-high boots and you’ll have a great look for dinner or a drink with friends any time of winter. (In the summer you could dress him up with a white tank top or t-shirt and slippers).
For a Sunday coffee date, pair this blazer with relaxed sequin ruched sleeves in a soft white T-shirt, faded jeans and trainers.
Make this midi tea dress with a round neckline and sequins suitable for the office wearing it with a fitted black sweater over the top with pantyhose and kitten heels.
And don’t save these animal print sequin wide leg pants for the best Sunday: why not give your dog a touch of glam by wearing it with your favorite hoodie and walking boots?
