SUBTLE or over-the-top

SUBTLE or over-the-top

Items with lurex yarns subtly add a glitter effect to your outfit, while sequins, coated items, and rhinestones have a more pronounced look. Mix and match different sparkling designs or go for a standout piece. It's your call. The all-rounder for the holidays? That's definitely the blazer, whether it's in satin, sequined, or with lurex yarns. This design effortlessly pairs with a blouse and trousers combo, as well as dresses, jumpsuits, and skirts. With its quirky glittering or glossy quality, it's perfect for adding that extra touch to your festive outfit - and easy to carry into the new season. PS keep an eye on the new brand ROTATE, as this Scandinavian brand is bringing the sequined styles you absolutely want to have.

"My ultimate festive look? I love contrasts, that's why I style, for example, sequined pants with a chunky knit and an oversized fit. This brings balance and simultaneously mixes different fabrics for a playful effect. And such a look is also perfect for after the holidays."

The finishing touch

Want to give your festive outfit that extra touch, but prefer a more understated style? Then add striking accessories to your look. Especially bags, belts, and shoes are perfect for elevating your look, but don’t forget hair accessories. Bags, belts, and shoes with studs and metallic finishes have been dominating for several seasons and are perfect for both complementing a party look and taking a casual styling up a notch - so multi-taskers to wear endlessly during and after the holidays. PS want to add a very subtle touch of glitter to your LBD? Then go for lurex tights!

Shop the look

Whether you go all out with shimmer or opt for a subtle sparkling detail, with glittering garments, you can go in any direction. This fall (and past summer), glittering and glossy fabrics have taken a prominent place in the fashion selection. It's all about balance. Pair sequin pants with a chunky knit sweater, a shiny blazer with denim, or metallic-coated jeans with a classic button-up shirt. The choice is yours! This trend continues into festive looks. You can choose a subtle hint of glitter paired with a casual style, or you can shine entirely in an outfit focused on glitter and shine. Below, you'll find some inspiration.

"Not everything that glitters needs to steal the show. By combining metallics, lurex, rhinestones, and sequins with more everyday items like your favorite baggy jeans or an oversized chunky sweater, you can create a chic balance between shine and everyday style. It doesn't matter where you're going; you'll shine just as brightly on the street as you will at that special party."

Beauty

You can add glitter and shine not only to your clothing but also elevate your makeup look. Opt for a shimmery blush or eyeshadow, glossy lipstick, or incorporate a luminizer or bronzer into your makeup routine. Don't forget to pay extra attention to your nails, and what better way to do that than with metallic nail polish! If you have a festive look with bare arms and/or legs, go for a body oil with a subtle shimmer, like Laouta's 'Glow' products.

"Want your eyes to stand out? Go for eyeshadow or eyeliner with glitter. Tip! Apply the glitter makeup to your eyes first, remove any 'unwanted' glitters, and then apply the foundation and the rest of your makeup. Additionally, apply glitter eyeshadow with a damp brush to minimize mess and achieve a more intense glittery look."
