not yo mama's sequins


from Paris Vogue


We interrupt Paris Fashion Week to news flash the very French sequins that have burst on to my consciousness.


via Play Like A Girl





via The Fashion Spot



via Loveology



Marion Cotilard again, but do you ever tire of her?



via Nylon



via Girl Meets NYC




Dress by Anik Batik




Herve Leger Bandage dress




via C'est Vogue




Lara Stone




from the Bohemian Rhapsody shoot







via the cobra snake


Okay, this sequin tube top probably did belong to someone's mama, but all fashion choices are forgivable when you are under 21. Not to be confused with Forever 21.

Oh I am very fussy about sequins. I love the vintage handmade stuff not the machine stuff that all comes away the minute you pull the thread.

Love this post! I was looking at sequin dresses for NYE, but couldn't find any that were chic enough. They were all too gaudy. I love all of these options! Nice finds!

I love every single one of these images! Makes me wish I had somewhere to wear sequins. Sadly my life is nowhere near as glamorous as my fantasies.
