This trend is perfect for when you are wanting to dress up. If you are wanting to feel super sexy, pair a sheer dress or coord with a pair of heels and you’re good to go. However there are ways to style it if you aren’t so confident with too much skin on display, for example chucking a blazer on over the top. You could also wear a sheer top with a bralette underneath and pair it with a pair of denim jeans. Dress this look up by adding a pair of heels and a mini bag and get ready to feel like the confident queen you are.

Everyone has been missing nights out at clubs and cocktail bars, so what better way to make an entrance on June the 21st than in a full glitter fit. We are in love with this low back halter neck glitter dress from Meshki (pictured below on the left), however if you want something more subtle, pair a glitter top with jeans or leather trousers. The glitter trend doesn’t only have to be saved for the clubs, it’s time to purchase glitter swimwear also that will leave you shining in the sun!
