Sequins and snakeskin are an unlikely duo for the fashion-fervent and one that makes absolutely no sense at all on paper. It’s as if Batman and the Joker have teamed up to take-down a shared nemesis (one particularly nerdy friend of mine has pointed out that this has happened but for the purposes of making a point of how polar opposite a sequin-speckled cami and lizard-skin sandals are, let’s pretend otherwise). It’s as if Tara Reid was nominated for an Oscar for her starring role in Sharknado, that brilliant work of cinema. It’s as if Taco Bell nixed the Beefy 5-Layers and rebranded to offer a strictly-vegan, all-organic, and totally-gluten-free menu. Okay, the last one sounds like an absolute nightmare but you get the point. Sequinand snakeskin makes no sense . But yet, rest be assured, they may just be the very spark that gets you out of your style rut.
Tibi’s sequin cami – now on sale for $59! – is a sparkly statement-making piece sure to make a grand entrance worn with virtually anything in your closet. But pair it with Club Monaco’s killer-cool snakeskin sandals and Eureka! You’ve got a look. A look that merits a right-swipe on Tinder. A look that demands it’s own comped Uber ride to Timbuktu. Whatever, enough, you get the point – it’s a great look. Mix in a dangling liquid-silver Tory Burch minauderie, boyfriend jeans that I already am in a seriously unhealthy relationship with, and some type of dope lip and get ready to strut as if your first name was Gisele and your last night was Bundchen. Because, let's be honest, how easy would life be if that was your nomenclature?
