Adding Fun to Your Wardrobe with A Colorful Sequin Pencil Skirt
I know what you're thinking, a sequin pencil skirt is crazy, and you're right, it is! But it's also a super fun way to add a little zest into your wardrobe. Often, it's these pieces that are going to be a interesting conversation starter. I tried this colorful sequin pencil skirt on at Anthropologie while working on a blog post last month and I just knew it was coming home with me.

A Sequin Pencil Skirt Might not Be Practical but It Sure is Magical
I have to say that not everything in my closet is practical. It's one of the reasons why I don't follow the capsule wardrobe method. But I do prescribe to the method that you should love what's in your closet. What you love is different for everyone. What I love happens to be unique pieces, along with classic pieces, mixed and matched right alongside one another cohesively. (It's also one of the reasons I know I'm doing what I love. I can mix/match like a boss!)
That's the point of something like a sequin pencil skirt, or a tulle skirt, or any piece that makes you feel like you've just scored a room or seat upgrade when traveling! Sometimes, it's okay to opt for a piece that isn't practical but rather, magical. I can tell you that when you go with your gut that comes with it's own sense of satisfaction. It's like putting on your favorite pair of jeans, only these jeans are sprinkled with sequins.
So just a secret between you and me, it's okay to be minimal and it's okay to be a maximist. It's purely about allowing yourself the freedom to read your inner voice that tells you, 'you rock'. And that, my friends, whether it be a oversized black sweater or a sequin pencil skirt, is truly beautiful. How do I pair something that has so much character? I downsize the rest of my outfit. That means, I wear simple jewelry, a simple top, and a classic (buy maybe colorful) shoe! Viola!
