Sequins for Summer: Our Guide to Wearing Sequins in the Warmer Months

We know what you’re thinking—sequins? In summer? While glittery pieces have long been reserved for Christmas, 2025 is flipping the script. This season, sequins are shedding their party-only image and stepping into the daylight, styled with everything from breezy linens to chunky sandals. Whether you're brunching, beaching, or just making your weekly supermarket run, a touch of sparkle might be exactly what your summer wardrobe needs. From standout skirts to subtly glitzy accessories, we’re breaking down how to wear sequins in summer.

A sequin top is the easiest way to inject instant glamour into your summer wardrobe—without feeling overdressed. We’ve fallen for these standout styles from Second Female and Part Two , which strike the perfect balance between sparkle and sophistication. For an elevated everyday look, pair your top with relaxed blue jeans and bold red accessories—a pop of colour that feels fresh and vibrant. If you’re after something softer and more refined, go for a monochromatic moment with cream linen trousers and tonal accessories. The contrast between fluid, lightweight fabrics and shimmering sequins creates an effortlessly chic vibe that works for everything from rooftop drinks to holiday dinners.

If you loved the long lace skirt trend, consider the long sequin skirt. This stunning piece from Second Female proves that sparkle can be subtle, offering a fresh way to dress up your summer looks without going full-on glam. For a relaxed holiday vibe, we’ve paired it with an oversized white shirt layered over a simple vest and finished the look with flip-flops—effortless, breezy, and perfect for strolling along the beach. Swap the flip-flops for chunky sandals and throw on an oversized striped blue shirt for that cool, ‘girl-about-town’ aesthetic. The key is balance: let the sequins do the talking while everything else stays relaxed and understated.

Nothing says modern glam like a pair of sequin trousers—and these silver stunners from ICHI are proof that sparkle can work far beyond the dance floor. For an elevated evening look, pair them with a classic tee, tailored blazer, and sleek heels—effortlessly chic and perfect for dinner or rooftop drinks. Want to dress them down? An oversized black T-shirt, flat sandals, and a matching bag bring a relaxed vibe that still feels fashion-forward. This is the ultimate way to do sequins without sacrificing comfort.

If head-to-toe sequins feels a little too bold, sequin accessories are your best friend. Think shimmering bags that instantly upgrade a simple outfit, sparkling hair accessories that catch the sunlight, and even a swipe of metallic nail polish for subtle glamour.  Whether you’re going out-out or just running errands, these pieces guarantee a little sparkle without looking like a Christmas decoration!
