I had been eying J. Crew’s gold sequined skirt ever since seeing it on Taylor of Sterling Style, but the fact that it was sold out everywhere and also way over my budget at $275 left it as nothing more than a fleeting thought. Leave it to Forever 21 to come up with a much more affordable option: I snagged this one at less than 10% of the former skirt’s price and I like that the rose colour of the sequins make it that much more girly!
What do you think about sequined skirts for daytime?
Wearing: Forever 21 cardigan and skirt, H&M belt, Coach bag, Hue tights, Zara shoes, vintage earrings
oh my..you look sweet and so beautiful..
i love your top..it’s cute!
and superb bag…gorgeous hun!
ok, i was so impressed with the front of the dress, and then when you turned around, i was just about to die. that bow in the back is literally icing on top of a very delicious cake. i saw that belt in h&m and wasn’t sure how to wear it, but you just opened a can of worms. now i must go to h&m tomorrow and snatch it up. you rock!
cheers,

Your skirt is so so amazing!

Forever 21?! I can hardly believe it! The bow is such a precious touch. If I weren’t in scrubs all day, I’d definitely don sequins for work/daytime!
have your cake & eat it too
UGH why are you so adorable? So unfair! The skirt is fabulous – I LOVE the colour!
oh tu est superbe, et j’adore ton look.
Elle est vraiment magnifique cette jupe, et j’adore les chaussures.

such a pretty skirt andi love the bow
I love the whole look. I like the black shoe with brown bag combo.. I am a big fan of sequins and think affordable clothes should be cute, and thank God f21 agrees! Great look..

Gosh I LOVE the skirt! I saw a similar one retailing at Club Monaco, but again the pricetag was similar to that of J Crew and out of my budget ):
That’s the only thing I still haven’t bought… A sequined skirt, just dying to get one! :o)
You look absolutely beautiful in this combo!!!

Um, yeah, I really, really want that skirt.
I’m into it for day time. But everything else has to be dialed down. I don’t think I could get away with it in my office, though, unfortch.
I would wear 100% of everything you’re wearing right now.

lovely, lady-like, interesting, AMAZING, all in one 🙂 You nailed this fancy daytime look! I would love to be able to wear a sequined skirt but I don’t have the courage to do it, not even for a nighttime look :p

I love this outfit on you! What could be better than polka dots and sequins? I love this combo!

Love the sequined skirt and the bag. You have a great smile.
There’s absolutely nothing wrong with sequins in the day! You are so beautiful and polished Jen, I always look forward to your posts 🙂 Where did you take these beautiful pics? Spots remind me of White Rock, but just curious…been on the lookout for good train track photo spots!
Forever 21 is the best!! Sequins in the day is perfectly fine, you’ll look super shiny on a great sunny day 🙂 Love the photos!

I think sequins are totally appropriate for daytime AS LONG as you anchor it with something totally casual. Like your look above…casual cardi w sequin mini equals perfection!
Love it!

The bow belt worn in the back looks so cute!
I have a similar skirt and i love wearing it with a plain white t and a fun necklace 🙂
I’m obsessed with this entire outfit! How amazing do you look?! LOVE IT.
That skirt is waaaaaay better than the J. Crew one, but more importantly: is it still available?!?!!?
LOVE the bow belt. LOVE.

I think you could totally wear this outfit in daytime… but not in Vancouver and not in my office haha. I get strange looks if I just wear a sweater dress! Sigh, if only I could though, I would definitely don this outfit. That bow belt is so cute!!
Lovely outfit!! I think this is one of your best ones 😀 You can wear the sequins skirt perfectly during day time 🙂 The bow belt is too sweet!

I love your blog! You have the sweetest smile and really, that’s the best accessory to all your OOTD posts! But.. the outfit.. love the skirt paired with the top, and the opaque tights. Very chic, very lovely.
I saw the same skirt from J. Crew on sale for $79! but I walked away from it. I came back the next day, of course it was already gone. SO DUMB. I’m still losing sleep over it.
Love the combination. You look so pretty!
I love your purse and sweet smile! Is this at Fort Langley??
Love that cardigan and that beautiful sequin skirt…and it looks pricey 🙂 Fantastic outfit!
