Ask Elyse: Bling Blunder

Dear Elyse,

I'd like to work the recent rhinestone / sequin trend into my wardrobe but I'm not sure how to do it without looking a little tacky. Any tips?

Thanks,

Rina

Dear Rina,

The thing to always remember when it comes to accents like sequins and rhinestones is that they are accents. If you want something a bit sparkly as a focal point in your ensemble then I suggest some glitzy statement jewelry, but when it comes to clothing always make sure that you choose items that are only complemented by bling rather than dominated.

If you still feel like you're flying blind I recommend browsing these examples here:

Twisted Heart Glam Tank
E.Vil Angel Wing Tank
Bailey 44 Sorceress Top
Twisted Heart Fleur de Love Cardi
Fifteen Twenty Sequin Tank

Hope this helps,

Elyse
