Style Tip of the Day: How to Sparkle and Shine Now
As we slowly come out of a pandemic, women are showing their moods on Pinterest. There are three top style searches: dark, goth outfits; bold, bright, colorful outfits; and outfits that have to sparkle and shine with bling, sequins, paillettes, metallics, lurex and glitter for everyday wear. My style tip of the day helps you to accomplish this look with a simple formula. Ideas are included to inspire you and show how easy it is to put this into practice. Age doesn’t matter when you have fun with new styles!
Style Tip of the Day: How to Sparkle & Shine Now
Take the most sparkly thing you own and mix it with your favorite dressed-down basics.
Now is the time to pull out all your shiniest, most sparkly pieces. Those are the ones that you didn’t get to wear during the holidays or even out to evening events over the past year and a half! You are encouraged to wear them any day and any time. The way to do this is to dress them down by balancing them out with classic neutrals and solid-color basics.
Outfit Combinations That Let You Sparkle & Shine
- For evening, add neutral heels to a sparkly dress.
- Just add sparkly, metallic footwear to jeans and a tee.
- Wear a graphic tee with a sequined skirt. You could add boots or other casual footwear to keep the casual vibe.
Sequin Cold-shoulder Top from Boston Proper with blue jeans - Pair a sparkly top with blue jeans.
- A graphic tee really dresses down metallic or sparkly pants. Then you could add chunky boots or casual shoes.
- Wear a metallic shirt open as a jacket over a t-shirt and jeans.
- With any basic outfit, just load up on metallic accessories (belts, bags, rings, earrings, necklaces, shoes, scarves, jackets, cardigans, kimonos, dusters, etc.)

Love how you’ve shown different ways to add sparkle to an outfit without taking it over the top. A little sparkle goes a long way, and too many people overdo it!
Yes, Jean, not only that but too many people just save their sparkle and shine for special occasions. Every day is special so adding a little bling creates happiness…to those who wear it and to those who see it! Thanks, Angie
