Inspiration Pages : 71 & 72



Pages 71 &72: BEADING!! I want to live my life sparkling.
If I had my way, I would wear a beaded or sequin skirt (or pants) everyday with just a simple tank in the summer or a pullover in the winter.
Sequin can be more practical than you may think, especially in neutral tones or basics like black and navy. It's easy to dress down with the afore mentioned beater and maybe a cardigan, throw on a pair of sandals and glitter down the street looking easy and effortlessly cool. It's one of my favorite things to do. Currently I only have 3 sequin/beaded skirts, though I'm always looking for affordable (but not cheap) pieces to dress down in this manner. I actually prefer to wear them casually simply because it's more unexpected.
The little white number at the center bottom of the page is exactly what I'm always looking for. And the gowns shown here all feel so timeless to me, showing that beading and sequin (especially) can be done elegantly and not be reserved for either celebrities gowns or ice skaters costumes. Every lady should have at least one sparkling item in her wardrobe and you don't have to wait until the holidays to wear it.
