all that glitters: the sequin mini

This is one of my absolute favorite looks for fall and winter! Paired with a solid color long sleeve top, sheer black tights, and booties, these skirts make any outfit pop.

To avoid looking gaudy look for a skirt that comes about four to five inches above the knee. Avoid sequin prints (like leopard) but go for a simple pattern (like stripes or checkers). These skirts act as their own accessory; don't overdo it with tons of jewelry or a big bag. Stick to stud earrings and a simple black clutch.

For a sophisticated going out look try matching your sequin mini with an black one-arm, long sleeve top.
