This year I’ve seen a lot of sequin clothes more than ever, from dresses to tops and skirts.  Sequin dresses are ideal for Christmas parties and festive occasions due to its jovial glimmery look.  If the thought of a dress is too much for you, a sequin top with a plain fabric pair of pants or skirt will do just fine.  A sequin skirt paired with a plain top will also look great.  The best part of wearing a glimmery dress is that it requires little effort on the styling side.  High heels, simple jewelry is all you’ll need.
