Obsession of the Day: Sequins

Sequins are everywhere.  Everytime I go into a clothing store or browse online they are all over cardigans, clutches, scarves, shoes, and completely covering dresses.  This is not a bad thing because I like sequins.  On an everyday piece such as a cardigan you can wear it to work during the day, but also transition it for night if you dress it up with jewelry and shoes.  I wish I had somewhere to wear some of the Amazing dresses I've seen lately.  Case in point:

Michael Kors via Nieman Marcus

And shoes:

But as an almost 30 stay at home mom in Fayetteville, AR, I really have no need for such things.  *sad face.

The great thing is that this season sequins are being involved more in design pieces for the home.  Love!  Just a little touch of sparkle can really glam up a room.  Take a look at some of my favs below and think of how to integrate some sequins pieces into your home for an instant upscale upgrade.

Love the color of the pillow in the neutral room.  Having the background be sequined instead of the turquoise medallions keeps the pillow from not being "too much."

I love this chair.  It would be hard to work in a room though with its modern lines. 

Maybe a dining room?  It also comes in black or silver.

This is the one that started the inspiration for the entire article.  This is a wall in the Kate Spade SoHo district of NYC.  I'm going to be doing this with silver paillette sequins in Evelyn's bathroom in the near future.
