One of the trends I have been coveting this season is sequins. Last week, I was finally able to purchase one of my wishlist items which was a Calvin Klein Plus sequin jacket. I had been eyeing the jacket for awhile online and I was over at Bloomingdales jut browsing when I saw it. I snatched it up immediately since there was only a couple left. Since majority of my wardrobe is made up of classic pieces, I don’t mind purchasing trendier pieces to spice up some of my looks. This jacket goes with just about everything and it is an attention grabbing show stopping piece that I will wear forever. I like that it fit like a boyfriend blazer because it adds a little sophistication to all my party/club dresses.

Another way I’ll be rocking my sequin blazer is with jeans and a t-shirt. I love how the blazer looked with jeans and a cute top because it’s great to wear to a lounge or a little dressy casual get together. Don’t under estimate pieces like a sequin blazer. It may not be an every day piece but it is a special piece that will make you shine like a star.
This weekend I found this super cute t-shirt at Faith 21 and thought it would look awesome under the blazer with my black skinny jeans. I wear these skinny jeans so much that they’re beginning to lose its shape which is why they’re creasing.

Thanks so much.
This looks great on you. Both outfits look effortless. The last time I tried on a sequined blazer I looked like Liberace’s God child. That was a no go, but I still loved the idea. I ended up getting the Silence and Noise Lurex Blazer from urban outfitters. It has a great texture and some metallic sheen so I get the effect of a sequined blazer!
Thanks Caribbelle and I’m quite sure you did not look like Liberace’s god child, lol. Faith 21 has a sheen blazer too.
Love you’re style! You’re definitely giving me inspiration!
I love this blazer!!! I have been looking for one that’s a good fit for me and no such luck yet
I think it looks great both ways, but I love a sequin blazer with jeans! I love your tights & red shoes, too.
Love the blazer and you can wear it so many more times!!
@Monique-You’re right. I felt like I could put it with anything that I had in my closet. I swear I wanted to wear it to work during the day, but, my bosses would have had jokes.
Two different looks for day and night, looking fab! Loves it!! Oh and I’ve been loving your hair lately. Weeerk!
