Spring '09 TREND: Sparkles

Sequins, beading, swarovski crystals oh my!

Everywhere I turned I saw the magical mystery sparkliness of glamour...and yet, somehow it was never over played, never garish. Hey, who doesn't like a bit of bling? We are all attracted to shiny things.

So go for it, and add that certain je ne sais quoi. My suggestion is to also dress it down a bit...perhaps with a boxy silhouette, or paired with a matte fabric. Neutral or dark tones are also a classy take. But whatever you do, carry it with attitude!
