Style in Sequins

Sequins are really on trend and feature in the new Kate Moss for Topshop collection

Sequin tabard dress, Kate Moss for Topshop, £80

Sequin dress, Kate Moss for Topshop, £130

Also, in the Daily Telegraph yesterday, they did a great article of how sequins are the thing for this Autumn. Alexander Wang, Balmain and Derek Lam are all designers who have also used sequins, or pailettes as they are also known.
The gorgeous Kate at Make Do Style commented earlier how she'd seen a lovely sequin skirt by Pink Soda and this inspired me to see what else was out there from designers and the high street. So courtesey of the Daily Telegraph, here is some more of what is out and about this season! Click on my title to go directly to their article online too.

Blazer, Les Chiffoniers at Browns, £495

Jacket, Monsoon, £95


Beret, Jaeger, £90


Oops, not available to any one except me-sequin vintage waistcoat £1-
Already purchased from Collier Row Boot Sale!


My favourite-Jeans, Siwy £165


Dress, Antik Batik £285

Of course, there is also the delicious Patricia Field for Marks and Spencers sequin jumpsuit for £99 too-so a great choice to be had for either the Xmas season or dressed down with jeans for a cool day look!

Funny that you did a sequin-themed post...I just saw a similar article and thought, "hey, maybe I can pull that off too" after reading this I definitely think I can.

I really like the 20s inspiration of the Kate Moss dress and that blazer is really cute too.

Hi tupersonalshopperviajero-thanks for your lovely comment my dear, London was a fab day out!

Hi Wendy-I think I'll look out for a gold sequin piece on my future thrifting trips!

Hi emily-a sequin piece in your wardrobe is definitely worth having for Fall!

Hi lil midget-thanks for your lovely comment!

Have been looking for something with sequins for a while now. But dresses and jackets don't work for me. Your vest is excellent. Great find.

I had to explain to my friend what sequins were. I loove the fist dress and silver jacket. Are those sequined pants because those could convince me that pants are good?
