Sequins and sandals

Maybe it’s all those bedazzled dance costumes I rocked growing up, but I’m a sucker for sequins. Unfortunately, they don’t work for every occasion (say, the office). But recently I’ve seen a lot of sparkly pieces available that you can wear during the day (outside the office) — especially when dressed down with casual jeans and flat sandals.

I loved this top (and the other color they had available) as soon as I saw it, so I jumped at the opportunity to get it when J.Crew was having a promotion a month or so ago. It also looks really cute with white jeans.

While most people would probably go with just one or two neon elements, I went all out — with this day-glo pink purse and new sandals, both of which I scored at majorly marked down prices.

Neon and sequins. It’s kind of like 1986, minus the mall bangs.
