It never ceases to amaze me how many outfits pins there are on Pinterest, moreover because they are pinned by real women I can re-create the look or be challenged by the look and interpret it in my own way. I love Vogue editorial fashion, but it's not for my everyday, more my fantasy world. Pinterest is the everywoman's piece of the cyber universe.
I have a white Joe Fresh sequin long sleeve top that I usually wear out to dinner or drinks. I saw a daytime sequin look on Pinterest and was inspired to replicate it and actually wear it. I went grocery shopping, dropped off dry cleaning and hit Costco wearing a top I bought just for the evening. The older I get the more balls (yeah I just wrote that) I have. I don't care what the mean girls say about me (they exist at every age and social class), I'm wearing sequence during the day...plus I'm six feet tall and now know how to use my height for intimidation...no longer the tall geeky nerd in the corner.
Tried to take pictures in a different spot...not too sure about this...
I love this spiked gold and pave bracelet from Cocoa Jewelery. It is available at select Shoppers Drug Mart Beauty bars. It is pliable so does not get in the way when you are wearing it, so that means I didn't stab myself or my child. Call your local Shoppers to see if Cocoa Jewelry is available there, this will save you time and frustration if you are not sure.

Hey, Iva! Thanks for the shout out!!! I love Pinterest for so many of the reasons you've listed above. I have so much fun searching for and interpreting the myriad of ideas I find there. I say good for you for "having the balls" to wear sparkle during the day. What are rules for if not to be broken??? ;) ~Sarah

ReplyDeleteI LOVE sequins for daytime. It's so chic and unexpected. You look fabulous, and I love how you paired that sequin top with more masculine pieces. Such a great juxtaposition!
