sequins...

...are a fabulous way to glam up the drab old winter wardrobe...and ring in some holiday cheer...adding luster to your face...and brightening the eyes...and the best part...around this time of year...sequins are everywhere! and you don't need a whole heck of a lot to make a statement...

it can be in your accessories...a sequined belt...shoes or clutch...a little bit sprinkled on your top...or if you are being really adventurious...why not go all out...and skip the lbd this year for the holiday party...and opt for a gold or bronze sequined number...ooh la la!

in any event...sparkle sparkle sparkle...

shimmer & shine...

when i think of news year eve...i think of shimmer & shine...

whether you're entertaining at home or going out on the town...it's time to dress up...and sparkle...

a t-shirt or tank in any evening fabric adds sparkle to the simplest black pants, skirt or your favorite pair of jeans...



a simple shape skirt in sequins and a leopard print can add sizzle to the tamest black sweater...



or if you are pulling out all stops...it's a time to play with the colors, textures, and daring cuts that you would never consider in broad daylight...



slip into a little black dress, satin jeans, or a sequined top...swathe yourself in an iridescent silk wrap...change into your party shoes...finish the look with sparkly earrings and make a nite of it...
