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

ya..y? I think yay for some and nay for others. To me it depends on the bum. I wouldn't dare to pull it off right now. Maybe I might get one and keep it in my "strive to one day rock these" collection. So when I get down to a "x" number on the bum size, I'll put these on along with my favourite most flattering colourful tights and boots. if I had a small, high perky butt I want to call attention to, I'd def' make a grab for these.

Nay! I'm pretty conservative, but I have a sequin top or tow. But SHORTS!? That area of me does not need to reflect more light! Wouldn't they also be uncomfortable? And the sequins would be falling off with all the walking and sitting... I don't think it will be come a trend. And if it does, I don't think I'll be swayed.

I love how these look on some people if they have the body for it. You definitely need to keep the rest of your outfit mute to let the shorts do the talking. But this is not meant for most people, including myself lol.

I've got to agree - it's a Nay for me as well!

I have to agree with chicky82 and say "ditto" on the Nay and the reason too. There CAN be such a thing as too many sequins and I think these shorts go there.

It's a nay for me. I love sequined tops but can't see myself wearing bling on my shorts :)
