This Ralph Lauren Crested Blazer has been in my collection for quite some time. Every year the Polo Party in Scottsdale would come up and I would often throw this blazer on because lets be honest, polo anything and Ralph Lauren are pretty much synonymous.

It wasn’t until I went to wear this Sequin + Velvet LBD from Forever 21 the other night that I had the idea to top it off with my RL blazer. Mixing the two together was a fun way to tone down the sequin factor of the dress, and add some edge to a more tailored piece.

I love a good sequin — in a strange way sequins, like leopard print, can be a kind of neutral of their own. When done right, they can anchor a look like they do when my blazer is on, but they also hold their own if I decide to take my jacket off.

What are some of your favorite ways to add sequins into the mix? Personally, I have really been digging them in the daylight lately.

J
