DAYTIME SPARKLE
To me daytime means simplicity, and that rarely includes anything that sparkles. However, quite recently I found myself invited to an afternoon soiree to celebrate a friend’s 70th birthday and I needed to wear something dressy, but with a relaxed vibe to it. I’ve been noticing sequined pieces mixed and matched in a variety of different ways this season, and thought this would be a great opportunity to test drive that trend. A few weeks ago I explored sequined styling for an evening out on the strip, but that look felt a bit too much for an afternoon affair. So I opted for a more informal style, pairing slouchy sequined trousers with a sheer blouse, both from H&M. Daytime sparkles are a great way to inject a bit of fun into an outfit. It’s not my new every day look, but I definitely enjoyed the extra dose of glam for an afternoon.

Sequins are not a staple in my wardrobe but It was a fun outfit for the occasion.
This is a great idea for when you want to be dressed up a bit, but still relaxed. I would never have thought of it!
Neither would I have thought of it Fran but I saw a couple of mannequins dressed in sequin pants with casual tops at Saks Fifth this season and they looked great. Saks usually gets it right so I gave it a try.

Adorable outfit. I love it but would never have thought about it for myself. It is fun, festive and perfect for your friend’s birthday party.
Not my usual style but fun and it was a conversation piece.
YSL tops anything sparkle…! Recognized that little gem in a blessed second ! And why not..life has No do overs! Enjoy ♡♡♡
Right you are! It is my forever favorite bag.
Unbelievable that both pieces are by H&M. Is it the shoes? The bag? The earrings? Or just classy you which brings these pieces to a higher ranking? Lovely.

Such a lovely compliment Greetje. You always say the say the nicest things and make my day. The shoes and bag are indeed investment pieces and I love mixing it up with bargain finds.
AWESOME look — you “killed it” -(as usual)
