3 Chic Ways to Get the Most Out of a Sequin Skirt

Dec 16, 2016

There’s no better time to bust out the sequins than during the holiday season, and best believe our most showstopping threads have been out in full force since December 1. They’re a given for office parties and your BFF’s annual holiday fête, but they don’t exactly scream daytime essential. Well, we’re about to change all that. Be it a glitzy holiday dress or a swishy midi skirt like the one below, sequins, much like metallics, DO have a place in your daytime lineup. It’s just a matter of knowing how to style them. This week’s Style Resolutions is giving you the lowdown on how to effortlessly pull it off, bringing you three creative ways to rock a shimmery midi skirt anytime, anywhere.

Glamorous AF probably isn’t how you’d describe your nine-to-five style — until now. Hit refresh on tired workweek attire and go full-on It girl with a sequin midi skirt and carefully curated layers. Tuck in a classic button-down for an immediate punch of polish, then weave in a hint of color and a touch of texture with a v-neck sweater. On the accessories front, take the contemporary route, opting for architectural pearl earrings, a clean-cut top-handle bag and streamlined ankle boots. Even on the most snooze-inducing days, your outfit will shine bright.

Zara Sequinned Midi Skirt ($70) + Mango V-Neck Sweater ($60), H&M Wide Cut Cotton Shirt ($20), Jeffrey Campbell Yorick Bow Boots ($195), Mango Pearl Earrings ($20), Charles & Keith Top Handle Bag ($79), Madewell Metal Pearl Ring ($28)

HOW TO STYLE A SEQUIN SKIRT FOR A NIGHT OUT

Make sequins your signature for your weekly GNO, ushering your after-dark style into Instababe territory with a shimmery midi skirt and dramatic velvet bodysuit (swoon). Dial up the drama with a faux fur jacket, laser-cut steppers and an embellished box clutch that gives off serious fancy-lady vibes. Don’t be surprised if your getup results in a few double takes.

Zara Sequinned Midi Skirt ($70) + Alix Bordeaux Velvet Elizabeth Bodysuit ($155), Zara Short Contrast Coat ($129), Santi Bead Embroidered Box Clutch ($175), BaubleBar Minimal Metal Collar ($38), Givenchy Rouge Interdit Vinyl Color Enhancing Lipstick in Grenat Envoutant ($33), Zara Openwork Leather Sandals ($119)

HOW TO STYLE A SEQUIN SKIRT FOR THE WEEKEND

We love a good sartorial challenge, and dressing down a swanky skirt is just that. To make the fanciful piece feel daytime-ready, team it with your most laid-back essentials (think: a statement sweatshirt, patchwork kicks and a knit beanie). With a longline coat and sleek crossbody bag on hand, the getup takes on a wear-anywhere tone, so you can transition from day to night — no costume changed needed.

Zara Sequinned Midi Skirt ($70) + White “Vacay” Print Sweatshirt ($52), Jeffrey Campbell Pop Life Sneakers ($175), Charles & Keith Circular Buckle Crossbody ($69), Brixton Reggie Beanie ($24), Topshop Eyelet Coat ($250)

30 Pieces That Bring The Mob Wife Aesthetic To Your Wardrobe

Quiet luxury had a beautiful run in 2023, but the mob wife aesthetic has entered the style group chat and is telling everyone their days of embracing side character energy is over. When I think of this trend, I can picture Elvira Hancock from Scarface and Carmela Soprano from The Sopranos in all of their glamorous glory. Also, while she may not have been a mob wife exactly, we can't forget Fran Drescher's style in The Nanny— her gaudy and expressive style continues to have impactful influence.

While I'll never suggest your lifestyle has to mirror the mob wife aesthetic, I do have a few tricks up my sleeve that'll help you effortlessly embody it.

Mob Wife Aesthetic — Coats

Alice + Olivia Jarrett Vegan Leather Maxi Coat

The first unofficial rule of this trend is to make sure your winter coats are top tier. You'll want to go for a classic silhouette — similar to this vegan leather maxi coat — that makes a subtle statement. I've found that hunter green coats serve as a great neutral for just about anything in your closet so you can't go wrong with this!

Nasty Gal Raw Denim Oversized Trench Coat

For something that's the perfect mix of casual and edgy, this denim oversized trench coat will get the job done. It's a gentle nod to the mob wife aesthetic that's sure to elevate your outfits.

Nasty Gal Premium Bonded Faux Leather Borg Maxi Aviator Jacket

Should you want something that feels more casual without skimping on style, this maxi aviator jacket is an option you'll love wearing.

Mob Wife Aesthetic — Blazers

Michael Michael Kors Metallic Tweed Jacket

One of the best parts about the mob wife aesthetic are the cute blazers you get to wear. This metallic tweed jacket can be worn with a pair of tailored trousers or straight leg jeans if you're headed to brunch during the day.

Make a statement with this zebra print blazer! You may even stop traffic because it commands attention.

Alexia Admor Olya Notch Lapel Belted Blazer

Ah, here's another gorgeous green number that lets people know that you're standing on business despite how chic you may look.

Mob Wife Aesthetic — Blouses

Lulu's Black Chiffon Top

Thanks to the mob wives aesthetic, this is the year your closet will have a few more blouses added to it.

Banana Republic Crinkle Volume-Sleeve Blouse

If the thought of wearing chiffon makes you shudder, you can wear this volume-sleeve blouse.

Alice + Olivia Finely Open Back Button Blouse

I'm a huge fan of blouses that have the "business in the front, party in the back" detail like Alice + Olivia's design.

Mob Wife Aesthetic — Skirts

H&M Knit A-line Mini Skirt

Keep it cute and chic with this knit A-line mini skirt.

Vince Leather Straight Skirt (Hickory)

Or, bring the drama with a midi leather skirt that has the mob wife aesthetic written all over it.

For a playful look, pair this pleated mini skirt with a cute blazer or knit sweater.

Mob Wife Aesthetic — Dresses

This lace slip dress has enough sex appeal for the both of us!

Reformation Felda Dress (Leo)

Whether you're dining at the most popular Italian restaurant in town or heading straight to a blues club, this dress falls in line with the mob wife aesthetic.

Reformation Irisa Dress (Grand Dame)

I can see it now — you wearing this dress with a cute cardigandraped over your shoulders.

Mob Wife Aesthetic — Tights

Calzedonia Tulle 40 Dernier Lace Ruffle Thigh Highs

I highly recommend that you consider pairing these tights with the above Reformation Irisa dress!

Spanx Plush Tummy Shaping Tights

However, you can a touch of mystery to your mob wife aesthetic by wearing tights that aren't sheer.

Your expressive outfit won't be complete without these leopard print tights from Wolford!

Mob Wife Aesthetic — Earrings

Ana Luisa Tia Medium Gold

Bring on the gold hoop earrings!

Merjuri Easy Huggie Hoops

If you have multiple ear piercings, Merjuri's gold hoops are a quaint accessory that's still on par with this fun trend.

Kendra Scott Mikki Pave Huggie Earrings in Gold

Another option is to wear a pair of small hoop earrings that are encrusted with gems.

Mob Wife Aesthetic — Bracelets

Baublebar Melissa Cuff Bracelet

Let your wrist do the talking with Baublebar's gold cuff bracelet.

Abott Lynn Mini Heart Birthstone Bracelet (Gold)

Wear your heart and birthstone on your wrist!

Ross-Simons 18kt Gold Over Sterling Jewelry Set: Three Bolo Bracelets

Break out this 18kt gold bracelet set for during date night.

Mob Wife Aesthetic — Boots

Dolce Vita Gyra Boots (Black Leather)

Three words — sexy knee high boots.

Jessica Simpson Brykia Boot (Malbec)

If you have a Merlot-colored coat at home, wear it with this pointed-toe boot.

Gianni Bini x Nastia Liukin Parker Crocodile Embossed Leather Tall Boots

Crocodile embossed boots are the thing to wear if you still want to turn heads in a toned down outfit.

Mob Wife Aesthetic — Heels

The mob wives aesthetic is practically begging for you to have at least one pair of significant black pumps.

Public Desire Legacy Gold Croc Barely There Pointed Toe Stiletto Heels

However, glamour is on the other line and it wants you to throw caution to the wind by wearing gold heels.

Sam Edelman Hazel Pointed Toe Pump (Brown Brahma)

How do you feel about the mob wife aesthetic?

Sarah Michelle Gellar & Freddie Prinze Jr. Are "Good At Avoiding" This Controversial Celeb Experience

If you grew up during the 90s, chances are you're very familiar with Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr. Besides David and Victoria Beckham, this couple is the reason most millennials believe that love really can last 'forever.' They're both well-respected actors who've starred in cult favorites like I Know What You Did Last Summer and She's All That, plus Sarah starred in the cult-classic show Buffy, The Vampire Slayer. Knowing they've cracked the relationship longevity code brings a smile to this millennial's face.

Can't help but fangirl over Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr. either? Let's take a trip down memory lane to revisit their relationship timeline!

Kevin Winters/Getty Images

1997: Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr.'s First Introduction

Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr. officially met while they were working on the set of I Know What You Did Last Summer, as reported by People. That's something I never really considered back then so this news makes my heart sing! I can't even begin to tell you how much I love watching it even though it's a killer flick.

1999: Sarah Makes a Quick Appearance in She's All That

It's not 100% clear if they were romantically interested in each other a couple of years later, but Sarah did make an appearance in She's All That. The film's director, Robert Iscove, opened up to Cosmopolitan about how her cameo happened in 2015. "She was there visiting Freddie and we asked her if she would come and do it, and she said she would come and do it, but she wouldn't speak. She wouldn't say any lines."

Claire Greeneway/Getty Images

January 2000: Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr.'s First Date

The funny thing about their first date is that they weren't actually planning on going on one. They were just friends at the time and a last-minute cancellation turned into something more. Sarah told People Now, " "We were friends for a very long time. We'd had many dinners before. And we were supposed to go with someone else, and the third person didn't make it out and we decided to still go," she recalled.

April 2001: Their Accidental First Date Leads to an Engagement

Fate must've known something Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr. didn't because they ended up getting engaged during the spring of 2001. ABC News shared that they announced the news during Gellar's birthday party.

Kevin Winters/Getty Images

September 2002: Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr. Make It Official

The beautiful couple said "I Do" during a lovely ceremony in Mexico, according to People. Their friend Cathy Waterman — designer of their wedding bands — said, "They're on the same channel" and "This is one in which you go, 'This is going to last.'"

I'm sure she's glad to know her prediction has been proven many times over!

Kevin Winters/Getty Images

April 2009 — September 2009: Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. Enter Parenthood

In 2009 Sarah Michelle and Freddie Prinze Jr. not only announced they were preparing to welcome their first child, but they later did just that. Their daughter Charlotte Grace Prinze was born right before summer ended and we can only imagine how overjoyed the couple was.

Evan Agostini/Getty Images

April 2012: Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. Announce Their Second Pregnancy

Three years after announcing they were expecting their first child, People found out the couple were ready to expand with the announcement of their second pregnancy. A source reportedly said, "They love their little girl more than anything in the world and know that love will only multiply."

September 2012: Sarah Michelle Gellar Gives Birth To a Son

Similar to their daughter's arrival, the couple's son — Rocky James Prinze — was born in September 2012. To celebrate his bday a few years ago, Sarah shared two adorable pics of him on Instagram when he was just a baby. "Rocky, on the day you were born, I swear my heart tripled in size," she partially wrote in the caption.

Chris Weeks:Liason

September 2017: The Couple Celebrates 15 Years of Marriage

Time flies when you're having fun love each other which brings a smile to my face when thinking about Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr.

Sarah actually shared a touching video on Instagram that perfectly captured the happy couple throughout the years. Each photo in the video includes the year it was taken which really puts their relationship into perspective.

Michael Kovac/Getty Images for GILT

November 2019: Freddie Prinze, Jr. Opens Up About His Love For Cooking

It's long been rumored that women are the only ones who enjoy cooking, but that's not the case for Sarah Michelle Gellar. Freddie Prinze, Jr. told People in 2019 that he's the one who throws down in the kitchen. "It's never a hassle for me to cook dinner because I like it," he freely admitted.

This is so similar to my household because I know how to cook enough to survive, but I prefer to let my S.O. plan our meals. Sorry, not sorry!

Paul Hiffmeyer/Getty Images for Disney Enterprises, Inc.

October 2022: Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr. Are All About Their Kids Enjoying Their Youth

If you think this couple wants their children actively on social media, think again. She opened up about one of the rules she and Freddie have in place that seem worlds away from what's considered the 'norm.' "Our rules are probably stricter than most. Our kids don't have social media," she told So Mini Ways, Yahoo's Parenting series.

I know some people feel that kids should have access to things, but I'm on the fence about it now that I have a toddler. I remember what it's like having unlimited and unchecked access to the internet so I'm not sure if I'd want my kids to come across some of the things I did.

It may be controversial, but I applaud Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr. for making this decision.

January 2023: Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. Hit the Red Carpet for Wolf Pack

Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr. looked amazing while posing for pictures on Wolf Pack's red carpet. Her floral mini dress by Oscar de la Renta made me want to buy something similar even if I knew I probably wouldn't find it.

Jerod Harris/Getty Images for Knott's Scary Farm

September 2023: Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr. Celebrate 21 Years of Married Life

I can't believe I'm typing this, but Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr. celebrated 21 years of marriage last year. That means this couple has been going strong for two decades!

Sarah took to Instagram again to celebrate their love with a throwback picture from their wedding day on Instagram and my jaw is still on the floor.

If you need more proof that the couple are still very much in love, here's a more recent pic that Sarah shared on Instagram from earlier in the year. She's "Still celebrating and spoiling" Freddie years later, and I think it goes without saying that he loves it there.

Sigh the bar has been set HIGH, and I can't wait to see how they continue to grow with time.

November 2024: Freddie Prinze, Jr. Reveals The One Celebrity Experience They're "Good At Avoiding"

Despite the fact that paparazzi love to see (and often follow) celebrity couples, Freddie just revealed how he and Sarah have been able to keep things low-key. When Oldish's podcast co-host Randy Spelling asked how they stay out of the public — and how intentional they have to be to keep a low profile — Freddie said it's "by choice," and that "you can control it to a certain degree."

"I don't know how deliberate [others] are in trying to avoid that BS," he said on the podcast. "I know how easy it's been for us because I don't go anywhere. I don't go to parties. People don't see Sarah and I out and about at the popular places. We have our restaurants that we like, and they're not super trendy in places where paparazzi hang out. So we're good at avoiding it."

The 'Gilmore Girls' Creators Are Packing On The Drama In First 'Étoile' Leak

If Gilmore Girls andThe Marvelous Mrs. Maisel have shown me anything, it's that creator Amy Sherman-Palladino always has an incredible story up her sleeve. Her new show Étoile, which is coming to Prime Video, promises to be a beautiful and sophisticated look at the world of dance, and if the fact that it's from Amy wasn't enough reason to watch it, it's also Prime's first new show to get a two-season order! Here's everything we know about the series.

What is the next Sherman Palladino show?

Writer/Producer/Director Amy Sherman-Palladino, Writer/Producer/Director Daniel Palladino seen at Netflix's Gilmore Girls: A Year In The Life premiere.Eric Charbonneau/Netflix

Following our beloved Gilmore Girls and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Dan and Amy Sherman-Palladino's next series is Étoile, which is set at two world-famous ballet companies in New York City and Paris. When both companies run into some trouble, the decide to swap their most talented stars in a last-ditch effort to save themselves.

And based on the first set leaks from New York City, it looks like Étoile will definitely be packing on the drama. This short clip shows Luke Kirby standing outside Lincoln Center in a serious conversation (probably about the fate of his ballet company, TBH).

"Well, guess that plan for early retirement will have to wait," Dan and Amy said in a joint statement (via The Hollywood Reporter). "Instead, we’ve decided to embark on an international journey with an unbelievable group of players and the most talented ballet dancers in the world. We will sleep when we’re dead."

But this isn't the first time ASP has forayed into the world of ballet! Her ABC Family series Bunheads (which premiered on June 11, 2012) follows Michelle (Sutton Foster) who moves to her hometown of Paradise and starts working at her mother-in-law's dance studio The Paradise Dance Academy. The best part is that the role of Michelle's mother-in-law is played by Emily Gilmore herself, Kelly Bishop!

When does Étoile premiere?

Anya Juárez Tenorio/Pexels

We don't have an official release date yet, but considering THR recently revealed the show will finish filming soon, we're hoping to see Étoile in 2025. Just like Gilmore Girls is the ultimate fall rewatch, maybe Étoile will be the ultimate winter rewatch!

Who's in the Étoile cast?

So far, we know that Étoile will star Luke Kirby, Gideon Glick, Camille Cottin, Simon Callow, Lou de Laâge, and David Alvarez. Yanic Truesdale, who played our favorite Gilmore Girls concierge Michel, has also joined the series as a recurring character! I'm so excited to see Yanic working with Amy Sherman-Palladino again — it's like a Gilmore Girls reunion!

What does Étoile mean?

Jeremy Thomas/Unsplash

Étoile translates to "star," and there are so many different connections here! We have the ballet stars themselves, but you also wish upon a star and reach for the stars when you're working towards a dream. If you ask me, Étoile is the perfect name for this series.

How many episodes does Étoile have?

Merve Sehirli Nasir/Unsplash

The first season of Étoile will have eight episodes total, but considering Prime Video ordered two seasons, we'll definitely be getting more episodes.

Are you excited to watch Étoile? Check back here for the latest news on the series, and stay updated on your favorite TV shows and movies on our Facebook!

Bye, PSL! The Starbucks Holiday Menu For 2024 Returns This Week

So long, pumpkin spice season: Starbucks’ holiday menu is on the way, and per menu leaks, it reportedly brings back a ton of seasonal favorites starting next week.

From a classic Peppermint Mocha to the beloved Caramel Brûlée Latte, the recent menu rumors say a new Refresher flavor, 6 unique cold foams, and 4 new bakery items are on the way as the holidays draw near – including many items we predicted! The speculated lineup is honestly wild. Starbucks teased that the holiday menu will hit stores on November 7.

If you just can’t wait to order off the Starbucks holiday menu, here’s every offering reportedly coming to your closest cafe!

When will the Starbucks holiday drinks for 2024 come out?

Starbucks

According to an Instagram post from Starbucks, new holiday drinks and snacks will come out on November 7, 2024.

Will there be holiday cups?

Starbucks

Yes, the Starbucks holiday menu will include some new holiday cup designs! You can peek at all the new designs for 2024 here.

What's missing from this year's rumored Starbucks holiday menu?

Starbucks

Per rumors around the Starbucks holiday menu, the Eggnog Latte, Toasted White Chocolate Mocha, Irish Cream Cold Brew, and Gingerbread Loaf won't be returning to cafes for 2024. We're especially sad to see the Toasted White Chocolate Mocha not included, though the official menu lineup has yet to be released!

When is Starbucks Red Cup Day 2024?

Starbucks

Though there's no official word out about Red Cup Day for 2024, our best guess – based on the Red Cup Days of years past – is it'll return mid-November. In 2023, Red Cup Day fell on November 16. In 2022, the coffee chain held the event on November 17. Both dates landed on the third Thursday of November, so we predict it to hit on November 21 for 2024. Red Cup Day is when Starbucks customers can get a free reusable red cup when they order a seasonal drink off the holiday menu.

Drinks On The Starbucks Holiday Menu 2024

@markie_devo

NEW! Cran-Merry Orange Refresher

The Starbucks holiday menu leak reported that this brand-new Refresher is packed with sweet orange, tart cranberry and warm spice. It also has cranberry inclusions and is order-able mixed with water, lemonade or coconut milk.

Starbucks

Iced Gingerbread Oatmilk Chai

Chai is a totally underrated holiday flavor in our opinion. This iced drink is crafted with warm chai spices and creamy oat milk, then gets topped with even more frothed oat milk infused with gingerbread-flavored syrup and a sprinkling of spice.

Starbucks

Peppermint Mocha

You know it, and you love it! The Peppermint Mocha has hit Starbucks menus year after year, making it a total statement sip for the holiday season. This drink (available hot or iced) combines peppermint syrup, mocha sauce, and your milk of choice with espresso for a festive feel. It's traditionally topped with whipped cream and tasty chocolate curls.

Starbucks

Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha

Similar to the classic Peppermint Mocha, this bev swaps chocolate for white chocolate sauce.

Starbucks

Caramel Brûlée Latte

This rumored Starbucks holiday menu drink is very rich. The sweet caramel brûlée sauce totally completes the sip, along with plenty of whipped cream and crunchy lil' brûlée bits for textural variety.

Starbucks

Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte

Literally like a sugar cookie in liquid form, this super-sweet latte is handcrafted with blonde espresso (it's sweeter and lighter than Starbucks' traditional espresso shots), sugar cookie syrup, and almond milk for a little bit of a lighter effect. It's finished off with red and green sprinkles to up the seasonal vibes even more!

Starbucks

Chestnut Praline Latte

This nutty latte – rumored to return for 2024 – brings on notes of chestnut and praline, which is a nice, flavorful departure from the very expected peppermint you'll see everywhere come holiday time.

Starbucks

Salted Pecan Crunch Cold Brew

Initially introduced for fall 2024, it appears as though the Salted Pecan Crunch Cold Brew will stay on the Starbucks menu well into winter. The salted, pecan-flavored cold foam offers that classic sweet n' salty twist you'd enjoy on fall snacks like trail mix or dipped pretzels. The best part is you can now also order the cold foam in non-dairy form!

Starbucks' classic vanilla cake pop gets a wintry twist with an adorable snowman face – this sweet really makes us crave the holiday season!

Sugar Plum Cheese Danish

This cream cheese-filled danish is topped with a slightly-spiced sugar plum jam. It's been one of our go-to's over the past few holiday seasons at Starbucks!

Cranberry Bliss Bar

The Cranberry Bliss Bar has become an absolute staple on the Starbucks holiday menu, and for good reason! This blondie treat is smothered in a delicious cream cheese frosting and sprinkled with orange zest and dried cranberries for added seasonal enjoyment.

Though most commenters on @markie_devo's Starbucks holiday menu leak post seemed to be excited for the upcoming rumored menu items, some Starbs fans noticed a few things missing from the leaked lineup.

"Still missing eggnog 😢," someone noted.

"Where is the toasted white chocolate mocha 😢😢😢😢," another questioned.

"ALLLLLL these cold foams, and not the one people want: Irish Cream," one more commenter said.

"Ugh still no gingerbread loaf 😭," a disappointed user wrote. "Everything else looks bomb though!"

Despite the Eggnog Latte, Toasted White Chocolate Mocha, Irish Cream Cold Brew, and Gingerbread loaf not being part of this year's menu predictions, the holiday season is our favorite time of year at Starbucks. Many more users shared the same sentiment:

"So excited for all chestnut praline shaken espressos & cranberry bliss bars 🎄🎄🎄🎄," someone wrote.

"Oh hell yess all the chestnut praline offerings," another rejoiced.
