Sequins! Formerly the domain of showgirls and 20-something's looking to rock their New Year's Eve, these embellishments have shown up on the runways for spring and fall reworked in a subtle way to add shimmer to an outfit any time of day. In fact, they’re so wearable I put them on no fewer than six of my shirts from my spring collection. 

Don't think you can pull off sequins during the day? Check out these three outfits that show you just what to do.

1. All Business

Power suit, meet power sequins: A blazer, dark denim or navy pants and a patterned blouse with a subtle shimmer of sequins is a chic and unexpected look for the office. Last step? Add a killer heel and this look takes you from the office to the evening. Go get ‘em, girl. 

2. Best of the Brunch

A sequined skirt has a lot of style oomph, so if you’re keeping it casual and wearing it to brunch with the girls, you’ve got to dress it down with super-casual accessories. Stay away from other shimmery or silky materials and opt for a button-front and sweater, slouch bag and slip-on sneakers. 

3. Going to the Club

The beach club, that is! — paired with crisp white pants, a denim jacket and flats or skimmers, a sequined shirt is just as appropriate for a casual summer stroll as it is for running errands. 

See these looks come to life when I’m on QVC on May 11th. And tell me how YOU style with sequin: Share your photos on Instagram and tag me with @clintonkellyofficial #kellybyclintonkelly and check out my entire collection here.

Look cute and don’t take any crap!
