You're not alone, I got like that with dresses earlier this year!

AlmaCogansFrockFan · 04/12/2022 13:48

i don't get much chance to wear my sequins out...but am always in evening dress to watch Strictly and this weekend wore a lovely sequinned jumper with maxi skirt. Perhaps next weekend I'll add a sequinned jacket as well!

Wow 😂
I don’t own a single thing with even one sequin! You’ve just got my quota there too.

SequinShagger · 04/12/2022 18:27

Lolol. That’s horrific

That is a lot of sequins OP 😁 …

I don't have many as I can never warrant buying sparkly numbers when I'll only wear around Xmas and new year. Do you buy around December? I do have a few Xmas jumpers as I used to work as a TA and wore to school most if December. Nit worn one yet this year.

SheWoreYellow · 04/12/2022 19:00

I voted YABU because I don’t see that as an addiction 😍

EvilRingahBitch · 04/12/2022 19:01

I like a sequin as much as the next Strictly fan, but I think maybe stop there OP.

travailtotravel · 04/12/2022 19:02

Just wear them when you fancy, and all year round.

AuntieMarys · 04/12/2022 19:05

I'm the opposite. I hate sparkly stuff.

SequinShagger · 04/12/2022 19:17

I have some kind of deep-seated mental reaction to it I don’t know why 😂

Better sequins than Meth 🤷🏻‍♀️

Boooooot · 04/12/2022 19:29

I love sequins but think I’m too fat to wear them. That’s quite an impressive collection!

viewsoftheshard · 04/12/2022 19:43

Until this year I never owned a sequinned item. Then for some inexplicable reason I know own 7 sequin tops (worn one today to put the Christmas tree up) How can they have been missing in my life for so long?

Binfire · 04/12/2022 19:46

Do you not find them itchy? I’ve had many sequinned items over the years but they’ve all gone the charity shop for making me itch!

malificent7 · 04/12/2022 19:49

I love them op. Check. out Rosa Bloom or vintage stores.

SequinShagger · 04/12/2022 20:40

not itchy, because they are all lined.

The bright silver one halfway down I got from Marks & Spencer’s when they did limited collection. Probably about 15 years ago and nobody had anything sequin then.

Your name implies there may be some issues...🤔

PinkArt · 04/12/2022 20:55

If that's addiction level then I need sectioning!
It's not physically possible to have too many sequins. By their nature they're very extra so you have to lean in to that.

IceFemonLanta · 04/12/2022 21:34

Anything sequins, glitter or sparkly, I adore and wear all year round. Even PJ's
It's become my trade mark actually, you can dress up or down, subtle or full on. Go with it, whatever makes you happy 😊

Ooh it's not often you get to talk sequin porn, what are yours like?

I got a strapless silver one and a peacock coloured one after my PERV neighbour nicked my blue one off the line.

Perhaps that was sequinshagger

GertrudePerkinsPaperyThing · 04/12/2022 22:12

I love them too OP! Love them.
