Twinkle, twinkle.

October 26th, 2009 by Catherine

Our East Coast weather has taken a turn for the very worst. It’s damp. It’s dreary. The wind is blowing so hard, leaves aren’t even getting the chance to fall – they’re swept up and away completely! When it gets like this, all I want to do is reach for my warmest sweater, comfiest leggings and plushest socks, but with events aplenty to go to, I’ve got no choice but to face Mother Nature’s wrath with sequins.

Sequin Cardigan, $98

My obsession with that Prada bag didn’t end my thrill for good sparkle. And with sequin sweaters and blazers set to be huge this winter, I’m using them as an excuse to ditch the comfort clothes and liven things up a bit. I have, after all, been known to get out of bed occasionally solely for an outfit I love. So in my search for a versatile sequined topper, I’ve seen many a jacket with a $500+ price tag, which, as we all know, doesn’t bode well with our Chic Thrills mantra. So you can imagine my excitement when I spotted this jazzy number from Victoria’s Secret for only $98. Pair it with your favorite little black dress for a dash of whimsy, or for a more demure look, try it with jeans and a simple ribbed tank for dinner out. Any way you wear it, you’ll look positively sizzling. Available online or through Victoria’s Secret catalog number – 800.888.8200.
