Sparkle: To give off or reflect light. No wonder every girl loves a little sparkle in her life! You know how they say, "Diamonds are a girl’s best friend?" Well… I say that "SPARKLES are a girl’s best friend." Glitter, sequin, and rhinestones, among all things that sparkle, are so necessary right now. So on trend!
From this fall's coveted sparkle shoes, to DIY glitter belts, this trend is a must for fall! Sasha Charnin, stylist to the stars and author of, Secrets of a Stylist, tweeted about these amazing Steve Madden boots the other day. They totally rival Miu Miu, and I suggest getting to Nordstrom and getting your hands on them. Sorry Miss Prada, these are for real (in my budget)!
If you won’t be clicking your sparkle covered heels a la Dorothy any time soon, maybe a sequin tee is more your style? I love this look because it easily dresses up an ensemble, but with a relaxed feel. Another option is sparkles on the bottom. No, not a glittery behind, no Jersey Shore-esque rhinestone covered booty’s. Puh lease! Although we are all about shimmery tights, sequins pants, skirts, leggings – you get the point!
One glittery, sparkly or shiny piece in your wardrobe not only makes you feel super girly and pretty, but it also makes for a good day-to-night transition. Sparkles can even be office-appropriate when done with a tee or tank under a blazer. From shimmer to straight up sequin sparkle, there is something for everyone! Even just a little sparkle to your eye this season will brighten your day. How will you be adding this trend to your wardrobe?
