All That Glitters

Sequins have definitely made a comeback in the fashion world.  When I think of sequins, I think of the 1970's, disco balls and strobe lights.  If you're the type of girl that likes to be noticed when you step out, just rock some sequins.  You're bound to turn heads.



Ever since I saw Alicia Keys wearing black sequin leggings during her performance with Jay Z and Lil Mama at the 2009 VMA's, I've been on the hunt to find some for myself.







Sequin Leggings are HOT and can be dressed up or down. I will definitely be adding a pair of these to my Fall wardrobe.


Sequin dresses are SEXY.  The shorter, the better.


 
 I LOVE this "electric" blue color.  I've never been a fan of the color blue, but I think I am going to have to add some blue pieces to my wardrobe. I'm really digging this color!

 
 LOVE this rainbow sequin dress. Very colorful and "girly"

 
 This is one of my "wish list" items. It's actually a dress, even though it looks like a skirt and top.  I like the fact that it looks like 2 separate pieces, when it is indeed only 1.  I love the different shades of purple.
 

 
This sequin tube dress is undeniably sexy. Very cute.



And here are some of your favorite celebs "glamming" it up in sequins:




Beyonce wore this hot little number to the 2009 BET Awards.



Keri Hilson wore this $4,000 Matthew Williamson sequined dress to her Album Release party in Atlanta



LeToya Luckett looked cute at her Album Release party a few weeks ago in this glittery, sequined dress.



Victoria Beckham looked fab in these sequined leggings.

 
And I just happen to love this promo picture of Amerie in her sequin shorts. FAB!



Tiny, eternal fiance of rapper T.I., looked nice in this Herve Leger sequin Bandage dress at the 2009 Grammy's.

 
Actress Zoe Saldana looked stunning in this sequin dress at the Star Trek premiere. I SO need those shoes in my life



R to L: Rosario Dawson, Mary J Blige, Rihanna, and Heidi Klum



 

And even our First Lady, Mrs. Michelle Obama, had to join in on all the "glittery" fun.  She and the President are pictured at the Congressional Hispanic Caucus 32nd Annual Awards Gala last night in D.C.

Yes, that's the best Tiny has ever looked. I don't know what has happened since then.
