STYLE IT SIX WAYS: THE GABBY SEQUIN DRESS
Bloggers, fash gals and famous babes all have one thing in common and we’ll let you in on the secret… they all majorly heart our Gabby Sequin Dress! Hey we know its only October but this sparkly dress can span the seasons and is a shoo in for any occasion. “Sequins can be low key you say?” No we’ve not completely lost our minds check the below bebes for no less than SIX ultra-cool ways to wear sequins. Halloween NYE Christmas and every-thang inbetween!
First up we have Haru Wilde, Japanese studies undergraduate, model and blogger. We think Haru’s style is so effortlessly chic with a unique vibe she has added a fresh sports luxe vibe to the Gabby Sequin Dress proving it CAN be worn on a quick dash to the shops or your next lecture.
“Of course this dress would look perfect if I just slip on a pair of heels and grab a clutch. (In club lighting, it turns you into a living disco ball, just sayin’.) But instead of going for the easy option, I tried to think of ways to wear this very un-casual sequin dress casually, as if you just couldn’t be bothered to change from last night’s attire, as if life was one big party…”
The Gabby Sequin Dress lends itself as a super sparkly sequin skirt under a slouchy sweat with sneaky peek-a-boo sheer panels, sporty socks and holographic loafers finish off the sports luxe vibe.
Power dress? POWER COAT! This oversized colour block coat dresses down the iridescent sequins in an instant! Pairing it with some striped sport socks with matching red stripe. Finally Haru gives us her glam look by slipping on a pair of wide leg pants, metallic capped boots and wide brim hat for a dramatic flourish!
Next is all time Motel fave exotic mega babe Alanna Durkovich of Xander Vintage fame. We’ve been loving Alanna’s eclectic style since DAY (one) and this look is no different! Teaming the sparkly bodycon dress with a sleek gold collar, sweep of lime green locks, plenty of ring bling and animal print flatforms.
Alanna says the Gabby Sequin Dress in Iridescent Green is a keeper and lists the reasons why below!
- Gorgeous green to go with every fall/winter holiday.
- Perfect amount of ‘glamour’ to dress-up any occasion or dress-down (ex. simple pair of sneakers and edgy leather vest)
- It’s a stand-out piece that will make you the shining star of any event (in a good way).
We couldn’t possibly not include Lynn Nuguen of Pyrrhics fame! Her mermaid inspired look is SO STRONG we are all gonna be dying our hair turquoise green this weekend! Chuck on a thick black choker, shiny bother boots, huge 80′s gold earrings, tinted specs and a thick stroke of eye-liner that’s oh-so on point. Chocolate brown lipstick perfectly finishes this bitchin’ 90′s mermaid look (ice cream optional).
“Lets talk about the Gabby Dress or ODE TO THE MERMAID – worn here with some vintage sunglasses, embellished Chanel earrings and the patent leather Aurora boots, my *SHINY!* meter just hit the roof! I would normally pair something this pretty with an equally pretty pair of heels, but the lace up boots with this dress is totally transformative, they’re lending mebadass-dark-angel-jessica-alba vibes.”
Lastly but totes not least-ly (its a word right?) we have UK fash blogger and Motel pal Lucy Trixabelle vibes the Gabby Green Sequin Dress with her signature pom-pom earrings, fresh white Nike Dunks, tortoiseshell specs and oh-so-cute ’90′s inspired twin buns.
