Matte Sparkle

I adore all things glitter and sequins in my wardrobe, but sometimes I feel the need to go for something a little more muted and less like an outfit for a 21st birthday.  I bought this top years ago from TJ Maxx and still love it; if the navy sequins were bright and shiny I think I would have donated it to Goodwill by now {too much sparkle can look cheap}, but the matte look of the sequins keeps it modern and transitional.  I wore this outfit towards the end of summer, but I can see myself wearing it again this fall but with tights and a blazer.
