How to Wear a Vintage Sequin Top

These very words appeared in my blog search keywords --  How to Wear a Vintage Sequin Top. As I am a super fan of vintage sequin tops, I felt moved to answer the question.

Step 1: Find a sequin top

Visit your local thrift or vintage stores. They're likely cheaper in a thrift store but a vintage store will probably have a freshly cleaned mint one all ready for you to wear. You can also search eBay, Etsy, and other online thrift stores too.

Step 2: Pair with what you're comfortable in

Sequins and jeans are my comfort look. It's my when in doubt garment when I don't know what to wear. Black is another way to go - trim black trousers or a form fitting black skirt are good options too. If you love all things shiny and sparkly, you may be comfortable in sequins from head to toe.

Step 3: Accessorize

Go with little to no jewelry or wear small pieces that won't compete with your fabulous sequin top.

Step 4: Match shoes to what you're wearing on bottom

If you're casual on bottom go with a casual matching shoe. If you're in more sequins on bottom (yay!) or a sexy black skirt, a nice heel would probably work better.
