(Real) Ways to Wear Sequin Dresses During the Day
Depending on what type of dress you have, there are 5 easy ways to wear sequin dresses during the day. Here I've created 5 outfit ideas for all types of sequin dresses. Let's check 'em out!
1. Wear a Cute Sequin Dress with Sneakers for a Casual Look
The easiest way to make any sequin dress work in daytime is to add a pair of white sneakers to it. If you wanna keep it safe, just go for a cream or off-white dress that's not fully covered in sequins. A pair of sneakers that has sequins on it would be the perfect match! Go for a cutesy silhouette like babydoll dress to make it seem more fun and playful, which would work in daytime, without making it look too formal.
To keep up with the casual theme, go for light lipstick, short nails sans glitter or art. Add just a small pendant necklace and a plain mini bag. This look would be great for a day party or anniversary lunch at a fancy restaurant!
2. Wear a Pastel Colored Sequin Monochromatic Outfit for an Engagement Party
An engagement party or even wedding reception would be the perfect opportunity to reuse your sequin dress during daytime. To keep it light, go for a pastel look, since dark colors would look night-appropriate. Petal pink, mint green, lemon, nude peach would be perfect options. Add all matching accessories to make it monochromatic for an elegant, well-put together look that would make you look like a glam guest, but not overdressed.
Go for matching sunglasses, makeup and heels. To keep it more casual, skip the clutch and go for a slim sling bag. Perfect for the bride-to-be's sister or best friend for a garden party.
3. Wear Sequin Dress with Nude Accessories for a Day to Night Party
Dark colored sequin dresses are the hardest to pull off during the daytime. But they can work for day to night parties like birthday sundowners or fashion events. Style them with very day-esque accessories to make them seem less formal. Like go for a nude structured bag or nude flats. Avoid flashy makeup or glitter eyeshadow completely. Instead, go for a nude matte lipstick and neutral eyeshadow, very thin eyeliner and nude nail polish.

4. Wear a White, Lightly Sequined Dress for a Fancy Brunch
A nice, big brunch is the best excuse to bring out a simple sequined dress. White or light-colored mini dresses work the best for brunches, since it's a relatively early time of the day, and sequins already add to the heaviness of the outfit. Go for matching accessories, like white flats or a cross-body bag.
Or if you wanna glam it up for a fancier brunch party, just go all out and pair your dress with a metallic silver micro bag and pumps. Add silver eyeshadow and light pink gloss or nude lipstick. Keep the jewelry minimal to go with the daywear theme.

5. Wear a Colored Sequin Dress with White Accessories to Your Birthday Party or Photo-Shoot
Your birthday is the perfect opportunity to rock a sequinned dress, no matter what time of the day it is. It's your day, after all. And if you're throwing a fabulous party, you gotta be dressed for the occasion! So choose a bright pastel-colored dress that makes it seem like it's chosen just for the day party. Pale turquoise, powder blue, lavender or olive are great ideas.
Go for matching nails and eyeshadow to up the glam factor. But keep the accessories on the lighter side to balance it all out. White is the perfect color to give the daytime feel. A white clutch or sling bag, a bracelet or pendant necklace and white pumps would make you look like the princess of the party!
This kind of look would also work really well for a photoshoot such as a mommy baby shoot (get a matching dress for your little girl), a sweet 16 shoot or a pre-wedding photoshoot. If it's a prewedding shoot, you can even match your dress with your fiance's shirt and have him wear a white suit to match your accessories! Fab!
