I Love Accessories. Adding an accessory or accessories to any outfit can immediately ( and a lot of the time cost efficiently) transform it, for the better!

Another thing I love are sequins! Sequins add dazzle ( and a slight eccentric demeanor; a little eccentricness never hurt anyone…think Little Edie, Grey Gardens…looooove her)!

But sequins are tricky, you must wear them appropriately. Sequins on jeans…no. Sequins on vintage sweaters, adorned on vintage purses, or tights….YES!

The holidays, Christmas and News Year’s specifically, are the perfect time to slip into something shimmery!

Perfect Holiday Outfit Hands Down= Little Black dress with sequined tights

Aren’t they Beautiful!?!  Sequined tights were walking up and down both Doo.Ri and Zac Posen runways.

Gimme, gimme you say?

Make them yourself!

What you need:

• Tights or knee highs from Goodwill
• Sequins in differing shapes, sizes and colors
• fabric glue
• You could spice this up and sew on shimmery beads as well!

How to:

• Stuff the tights with paper or something that will prevent the glue from seeping through and gluing the tights together!
• Pick out the sequins and glue!
• Let dry…do NOT wash!
• Pair with the perfect little black dress and heels!

Ta da! Pretty, Pretty!
