Recently, street style has been having a shining moment with the integration of glitzy pieces. As we all know, fashion rules have been out of style for a long time, and the ban on glitter during the day is no exception. From glittery boots to lamé dresses, sparking in the sun makes a major statement—and it’s time you brought your best bright details to campus.
Wearing sequins, velvet, and silk in the everyday is an updated take on 2000s socialite chic. Take those Carrie Bradshaw vibes to campus by borrowing from these Style Gurus on how-to style these pieces for daytime. Making these pieces work for school is as simple as letting the sparkle shine by offsetting these statement pieces with more casual pieces. Who said you can’t do both?

4—Decorating jean jackets with pins and patches has been everywhere recently, but adding sequins to this classic wardrobe staple makes it a “best of both worlds” piece. Pair it with a plain white T-shirt and a black skirt to keep your look neutral to let the jacket stand out on its own. (Photo via @mar.elekes)
