This is my first style post of the new year and as usual I’m sharing the best of Your True Self Blog! If you’re new here, every week I publish a style post late on Tuesday nights to appear on Wednesday mornings and a weekend blog roundup of the Beauty & Style Spotlight Team on Saturday mornings. At the beginning of each year, I present the top ten most popular blog posts of the previous year. As I looked back at 2025, I discovered there are top ten most viewed posts AND a popular style guide as well! In my Shop, I have two style guides so far and one of them attracted a lot of attention. I hope that you will enjoy reading these ten postings and also consider purchasing the featured style guide.
In everything I present, I always like to remind you that age doesn’t matter. When you wear what you love, you’ll enjoy each day of your life more fully!
Below, I’m starting the countdown from number ten to one and then following that up by announcing the featured style guide. Connect to each one by clicking on its headline.
Thanks so much for visiting Your True Self and have a happy 2026!

As part of my Fall/Winter Evening Series, I’m adding this post on how to wear a sequin top or topper because they are look makers. And I surely wouldn’t do without my sequin t-shirt! Actually, I consider a sequin tee an essential wardrobe item for day, night and year round. It’s that versatile and so much fun!
Besides the t-shirt, I also own a couple of sequin tank tops, a number of long-sleeve sequin tops and a sequin shirt. The long-sleeve tops are great for layering day or night, so they’re pretty useful. I reserve the shirt for evening wear, but it doubles as a jacket when left unbuttoned so I consider it worth having. It makes a sequin jacket or blazer unnecessary for my casual lifestyle. All these items do come in handy often enough for me to recommend them as part of an evening wardrobe.
Age doesn’t matter. Older is bolder, so go ahead and sparkle whenever you get the chance!

When you are done watching, you will find some secrets of how to enjoy your special clothes every day below.
Age doesn’t matter. If you have beautiful clothes you love that you have been storing away, why don’t you pull them out and dare to wear them anytime?
I have updated this post because maximal outfits, accessories and sequins for every day are trending in 2025. We are being encouraged to wear statement pieces and our special clothes for every day. It’s one of the ways to lift our spirits.
