Yay or Nay?: Sequin Shorts

Posted by Alexandra C. | Monday November 21, 201194 comments

I haven't ever been quiet about my love for glitter here. This is the first time however, that I have questioned my love

Here's the question- would you wear sequinned shorts? 


(from top left) Tibi Sequin Shorts (US$285.00), Patrizia Pepe Sequin Shorts (C$145.00), Robbi and Nicki Snakeskin Sequin Shorts (C$263.23)

In theory, I love them- they're fun, sparkly, cute and look great with tights underneath. Here's something no one ever tells you about sequins though- when they dig in or if you brush up against someone, it hurts! Would the constant rubbing and itchy scratchy-ness cause sequin burned thighs? 

Besides practicality, does a flashy and sparkly bum draw too much bad attention? Is it way too over the top (i.e. O.T.T.)?

Let's be real though- glitter is almost always O.T.T., it's in it's nature and we love it anyways, so why not? 

What do you think of sequin shorts? Would you wear any of these? Are they a Yay or Nay? Leave us a comment by November 27th for a chance to win

I think that is a definite nay, unless you are in a costume party...

I like the first one but I'm not sure if I would wear it. Great prize though!

If you are curver I say Nay! It will draw too much attention to that part of your body. I think if you are very slim then it's a YAY.

The longer, baggy versions could be pulled off as they have a mini skirt quality. When I read the title of the article I had visions of sequined shorts a la Studio 51 or the Rocky Horror Picture Show. I was going to be on the NAY bandwagon...but these arent too bad! Just go with a very plain, solid colour top and tights.

With a long sleeve, plain black shirt, these shorts would look really cute and festive! YAY!

Nay - shorts are too casual to have sequins that shimmers. The casualness of shorts and the elegance of sequins clash in this look.
