I think I might be addicted to sequins and other things that sparkle. It’s what drew me to this jumper from F21 – which I’m delighted that I can dress up with a little cropped cardigan (again, involving some sparkle) and dress down by adding a long sleeved top underneath.
You gotta love versatility. I can top off both looks with my F21 wedge booties, which, considering how slippery and slushy it is here may not be smartest idea but danger is my middle name so what the hell.
This was actually the outfit that I wore to my abortive first chapter conference (the one that had to be rescheduled because of the snow) because I was semi-delirious and all jacked up on Dayquil and I thought to myself, “dammit, I just want to sparkle today while I get raked over the coals by my dissertation committee.” And you know what? I stand by my sequins-as-day-wear choices. Although as I write this I am ill again and jacked up on Dayquil…

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways ...
You placed your wedges on top of a mountain of books.
You are always so sparkly.
You jack yourself up with Dayquil and don't apologize for it.
You attended your chapter conference while jacked up on said Dayquil.

Oh la la I'm loving the dressed down version with the shirt underneath. I was actually in F21 today and I was struck by how little I liked everything. I thought maybe I had grown up (in the last month...) and grown out of F21 - I'm hoping it was just an off-visit, because I certainly like this jumper!
haha it's been slippery here, too. you are quite the risk-taker! (: looove those sequins. you always look so lovely in gray and black
sequins and dayquil, just what the doctor ordered?
maybe i need some as well.
i love that you paired the cardigan with it as well!
Chic on the Cheap

im a sucker for sequins...I recently bought a black cardie covered in them. Love the shoes by the way, they may have a risky wedge but they do look quite comfy.
So You! The ingenious paring of sparkle and casual. The chic university look. A body with a shining mind.
I can totally picture you sipping coffee and enjoying the amplitude of books. How great it is to study, research and to learn!
I like the sequin cardigan, and lol I want sparkle everyday if I can get away with it!!
I'm a sequin obsessed especially during the celebration seasons. That blue dress is so pretty! You are a genius (:
