I don’t know if it is the fifteen or more years of dance recital costumes in my past or the fact that Christmas is right around the corner, but I just can’t get enough sparkly things this holiday season. After all, from glitter to sequins, ‘tis the season to shine at all your holiday gatherings. To avoid blending in with the Christmas tree or looking like a disco ball on the dance floor, keep the sparkle to one or two pieces and let your style shine through. May I suggest a pair of sparkly stilettos this season from heels.com to get you started?

There’s nothing like a little sparkle and shine to make you whip your hair back and forth. As soon as the holiday months roll around, all I can think of is something that sparkles and apparently I’m not the only one.

Kate Hudson sparkled in this shimmering Lanvin dress at the 2010 Glamour Women of the Year awards proving that all that glitters really is gold. Just remember you don’t have to save that fancy footwear for the dance floor or the red carpet anymore. Try some gleaming heels with a pencil skirt and sweater to add some twinkle to your polished professional wear or add a little spark to your jeans and tee weekend wear. Go ahead and get a little glitter in your life with these shining stilettos from heels.com.

Sparkly sequins aren’t just for holiday parties anymore. This season sequins make their daytime debut on everything from head to toe. The key to making this trend work for work is to let your sequined item shine and keep the rest of your ensemble subdued. To keep from looking like your headed to a dance recital, try a blazer over a sequined top, a black pencil skirt with a sparkly heel, or even a crisp oxford with a sequined skirt. A little sparkle goes a long way and can add an unexpected richness to your otherwise paltry professional pieces. Outshine your coworkers and add a little shimmer with one of these pretty pieces for fall.
